3200 dollars is placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 8.25%. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long will it tak

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

24.2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic formula is I = P * i * t, where I is interest, P is total principal (or profit), i is rate of interest per year, and t is total time in years. I = P * i * t can be rearranged to solve for t: t = I / (i * p).

In this question I = $6400, P = $3200 and i = 8.25%, so we plug in those numbers to get t = 6400 / (0.0825 * 3200), which solves to 24.2424 years.

What is the first step in solving 2x=y X+y=30

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: x = 10 y=20

Step-by-step explanation:

You can answer this question by plugging in each equation:

2x=y, x+y=30. Let us plug y as 2x in the second equation x+y=30

x+2x= 30

3x= 30

x=10

After we found x we can then find y by plugging the 10 for x.

2(10) = y

y =20

or you could plug in the other equation

10+y=30

subtract 10 from 30 and we get 20

to double check we can plug in both numbers

2(10) = 20 which is correct

and 10 + 20 = 30 which is correct

If 6 pipes fill a tank in 120 minutes, then 5 pipes can fill it in how many minutes

Marianna [84]

Answer:

<u>It'll</u><u> </u><u>take</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>4</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>minutes</u><u> </u><u>for</u><u> </u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>pipes</u><u>.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

${ \sf{6 \: pipes = 120 \: mins}} \\ { \sf{5 \: pipes = ( \frac{6}{5} \times 120) \: mins}} \\ \\ = { \sf{144 \: mins}}$

but practically, it seems to be abnormal. if 6 pipes take 120 mins, 5 pipes must takes a time greater than 120 mins cause amount of water flowing to the tank is decreasing.

Help please. only answer if you know :(

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

<em>x = 437.3 ft</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Right Triangles</u>

In right triangles, where one of its internal angles measures 90°, the trigonometric ratios are satisfied.

We have completed the figure below with the missing internal angle A that measures A = 90° - 29° = 61° because the lines marked with an arrow are parallel.

Given the internal angle A, we can relate the unknown side of length x with the known side length of 500 ft, the hypotenuse of the triangle. We use the sine ratio:

$\displaystyle \sin 61^\circ=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

$\displaystyle \sin 61^\circ=\frac{x}{500}$

Solving for x:

$x = 500 \sin 61^\circ$

Calculating:

x = 437.3 ft
