To answer this you will combine both fractions together to get a total. The denominators are not the same so you will need to create equivalent fractions for both with a common denominator. The denominator is like the units, and to be able to add them they must be the same.
2/5 + 3/7
2/5 = 14/35 and 3/7 = 15/35
14/35 + 15/35 = 29/35
29/35 of the garden are these 2 flowers.
Answer:
Option A.) 20 pounds of walnuts and 25 pounds of almonds is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) let x be the the number of pounds of almonds
ii) let y be the number of pounds of walnuts
iii) therefore x + y = 45 pounds of the mixture
iv) 1.2x + 0.75y = 1.00
45 = 45
v) Multipling equation in iv) by 4 we get
4.8x + 3y = 180
vi) multiplying equation in iii) by 3 we get
3x + 3y = 135
vii) subtracting equation vi) from equation v) we get 1.8x = 45
ix) therefore we get x = 45/1.8 = 25 pounds of almonds
x) therefore 25 + y = 45 .... substituting value of x from ix) in iii) we get
therefore y = 20 pounds of walnuts
Therefore option A.) 20 pounds of walnuts and 25 pounds of almonds is correct.
6; because they are an equal distance apart
Answer:
$6,506.51
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that increasing an amount C in x% is equivalent to multiply it by (1+x/100)
As we have 4% APR, the monthly interest would be (4/12)% = 0.04/12
<u>Month 0</u> (first payment)
$250
Month 1

<u>Month 2</u>

<u>Month 3</u>

<u>Month 24 (2 years)</u>

The sum

is the sum of the first 24 terms of a geometric sequence with common ratio
which is

so, after 2 years the saving balance is
250*26.02603071 = 6,506.50767= $6,506.51 rounded to the nearest cent.
