Answeri dont know sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent amounts invested at 6% and 9%, respectively.
y = 3x +58 . . . . . . . the amount invested at 9%
0.06x +0.09y = 1097.19 . . . . . . total interest earned
__
Substituting for y, we have ...
0.06x +0.09(3x +58) = 1097.19
0.33x + 5.22 = 1097.19 . . . . . . . . . simplify
0.33x = 1091.97 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5.22
x = 3309 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.33
y = 3(3309) +58 = 9985
$3309 is invested at 6%; $9985 is invested at 9%.
B is definitely the answer
Answer:
x = 14
y = 4
Explanation:
Ok so, just from looking at the two triangles i can tell they're congruent right triangles. I used different colors to show which sides of the triangle correspond and are equal to each other in my attatched photo.
So the side thats equal to x is the same length as the side that's equal to y+10 on the other triangle.
So we can write the equation x = y + 10.
Using this same method, the side that's equal to x + 2 is the same length as the side that's equal to 4y on the other triangle.
So, we can write the equation 4y = x + 2.
Now we have the equations
you could rewrite to be in slope- intercept form so they're easier to graph. But a graphing calculator online would plot it just fine.
If you graph these two equations they'll intersect at the solution ( 14, 4 ). I'll include the graph in my images as well.
To check your answer, you can plug in x and y and see if the triangle sides end up being the same length. I did and it was correct.
