What is the missing the step in this proof DE = 1/2AT DE = AT

While grading her students' most recent quiz on equation solving, Mrs. Jones calculated that approximately forty percent of her

EastWind [94]

The given equation is,

$3(-n+4)+5n=2n$

Part 1:

Solve the above equation for n.

Using distributive property of multiplication,

$\begin{gathered} -3n+3\times4+5n=2n \\ -3n+12+5n=2n \end{gathered}$

Now, group the like terms.

$-3n+5n-2n+12=0$

Now, add the like terms.

$\begin{gathered} -5n+5n+12=0 \\ 0=-12 \end{gathered}$

0=-12 is a false statement.

Since we obtained a false statement, the given equation has no solution.

So, option b is correct.

Part 2:

The option (a) is n=3.

If while solving an equation, a single value is obtained for the variable, then the equation has only a single solution. If n=3 is obtained after solving the equation, then the student should chose option (a) as the answer.

The option (b) is "no solution".

While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically false, then the equation will have no solution. So, no solution is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically false.

The option (c) is "infinitely many solutions".

While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically correct such as 0=0, 7=7 etc., then the equation will have infinietly many solutions. So, infinitely many solutions is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically correct.

3. You want to have $4000 in your savings account after 2 years. Find the amount you should deposit for each of the situations d

pychu [463]

Answer:

Part A)

About $3767.34.

Part B)

About $3692.47.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

Recall that compound interest is given by the formula:
$\displaystyle A = P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

Where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the interest rate, n is the number of times compounded per year, and t is the number of years.

To obtain $4000 after two years, let A = 4000 and t = 2.

Because the account pays 3% interest compounded monthly, r = 0.03 and n = 12.

Substitute and solve for P:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (4000) & = P\left(1+\frac{(0.03)}{(12)}\right)^{(12)(2)} \\ \\ P & = \frac{4000}{\left(1+\dfrac{(0.03)}{(12)}\right)^{(12)(2)}} \\ \\ & \approx \$3767.34\end{aligned}$

In concluion, about $3767.34 should be deposited.

Part B)

Recall the formula for continuous compound:

$\displaystyle A = Pe^{rt}$

Where e is Euler's number.

Hence, let A = 4000, r = 0.04 and t = 2. Substitute and solve for P:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}(4000) & = Pe^{(0.04)(2)} \\ \\ P & = \frac{4000}{e^{(0.02)(4)}} \\ \\ & \approx \$3692.47 \end{aligned}$

In conclusion, about $3692.47 should be deposited.

Identify the circumference of ⊙S in which A=64π ft^2. HELP ASAP!!

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

C = 16π ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know the area

A = pi r^2

64 pi = pi r^2

Divide each side by pi

64 = r^2

Take the square root of each side

8 = r

The radius is 8

Now we can find the circumference

C = 2 *pi*r

C = 2*pi*8

C = 16pi
