a+c=40

c=40-a

11c +20a=728

11(40-a)+20a=728

440-11a +20a=728

440+9a=728

9a = 288

a=288/9 = 32

32 adults

A + c = 40
20a + 11c = 728

Multiply equation # 1 by -11, then add the two equations together to clear the 'c' variable and solve for 'a'.

-11(a + c = 40)


20a + 11c = 728
-11a - 11c = -440
------------------------
9a  = 288
Divide both sides by 9
a = 32

a + c = 40
32 + c = 40
subtract 32 from both sides
c = 8

Baker, Inc. uses the sum-of-the-years’-digits method to depreciate a $79,600.00 piece of equipment that has an estimated life of
Anastasy [175]

The book value at the end of year 2 of the equipment depreciated using the sum-of-the-years’-digits method is $65,560.

<h3>What is the book value at the end of  year 2? </h3>

Depreciation is a method used to expense the cost of an asset. Book value is the cost of the asset less the accumulated depreciation.

Sum-of-the-year digits = (remaining useful life / sum of the years ) x  (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

Depreciation expense in year 1:

Sum of the years = 1 +2 +3 +4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10+ 11 + 12 + 13 + 14 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19 + 20 = 210

Undepreciated life of the asset = 20

(20 / 210) x ($79,600 - 4,000) = 7200

Depreciation expense in year 2:

19 / 210 x ($79,600 - 4,000) = 6840

Book value = 79600 - 7200 - 6840 = $65,560

Determine the currents in the picture
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The value of currents are I_1=0A, I_2=1A and I_3=1A.

Step-by-step explanation:


The Ohm's law states that

V=IR

it is given that the V₁=3V and V₂=4V.

In a parallel circuit:

  • Voltage is same in each component
  • Sum of the currents equals to the total current that flows.

I_2=I_1+I_3                   .... (1)

Equation for first loop is,

V_1=4I_1+3I_2

3=4I_1+3I_2              ..... (2)

Equation for second loop is,

V_2=1I_3+3I_2

4=1I_3+3I_2             ..... (3)

On solving (1), (2) and (3) we get

I_1=0


I_2=1

I_3=1

Therefore the value of currents are I_1=0A, I_2=1A and I_3=1A.
