If you have a budget of 12% of your monthly income for groceries how much can you spend on groceries if you earn 950 by weekly

1 answer:

8 0

If you earn 950 biweekly and we assume a month is 4 weeks, then your monthly income is 950 * 2 or 1900, now how much is 12% of 1900?

bear in mind that whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.

thus, 12% of 1900 is just (12/100) * 1900.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

John work as a security guard job 27 hours and as a landscaper 33 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

John works two jobs.

As a security guard he earns $8.50 per hour and as a landscaper he earns $14 per hour.

One week John worked a total of 60 hours and earned $691.50.

Now, to find hours he work at each job.

Let the job of security guard be $x$ hours.

And the job of landscaper be $y$ hours.

So, the total hours John worked in a week:

$x+y=60.$

⇒ $y=60-x.$ ............( 1 )

Now, the money earned by John in a week:

$8.50x+14y=691.50$

Putting the equation ( 1 ) in the place of $y$ :

⇒ $8.50x+14(60-x)=691.50$

⇒ $8.50x+840-14x=691.50$

Moving variables on one side and the other we get:

⇒ $840-691.50=14 x-8.50x$

⇒ $148.50=5.50x$

Dividing both sides by 5.50 we get:

⇒ $27=x$

As a security guard job he worked 27 hours.

Putting the value of in $x$ equation ( 1 ) we get:

$y=60-27$

⇒ $y=33.$

As a landscaper he worked 33 hours.

Therefore, John work as a security guard job 27 hours and as a landscaper 33 hours.

Can someone help with this problem on literal equations to get variable A by itself? Will give lots of points

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

xf = xo + vo* t + 1/2 a*t^2 Subtract xo

xf - xo = 0*t + 1/2 a*t^2 multiply by 2

2(xf - xo) = at^2 divide by t^2

2(xf - xo ) / t^2 = a

Part B

Givens

xo =0

vo = 0

a = 10 m/s^2

xf = 120 m

Solution

xf = xo + vo* t + 1/2 a*t^2 Substitute the givens

120 = 0 + 0 + 1/2 * 10 * t^2 Multiply by 2

120*2 = 10* t^2

240 = 10*t^2 Divide by 10

240/10 = t^2

24 = t^2 take the square root of both sides.

√24 = √t^2

t = √24

t = √(2 * 2 * 2 * 3)

t = 2√6

Answer: Perimeter = 22*sqrt(2)

Area = 60.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple a square has 4 equal sides.

It contains (by definition) 1 right angle but since we are not including and statement about parallel sides, it needs 4 right angles.

Angus has $3,000 he want to invest. What interest rate compounded continuously does an account need to offer so that Angus has $

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The interest rate is 7.58%

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound continuous interest can be calculated using the formula:

A = P $e^{rt}$ , where

A is the future value of the investment, including interest

P is the principal investment amount (the initial amount)

r is the interest rate in decimal

t is the time the money is invested for

∵ Angus has $3,000 he want to invest

∴ P = 3000

∵ The interest rate is compounded continuously

∵ Angus has $5,500 in 8 years

∴ A = 5500

∴ t = 8

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find r

∵ 5500 = 3000 $e^{8r}$

→ Divide both sides by 3000

∴ $\frac{11}{6}$ = $e^{8r}$

→ Insert ㏑ in both sides

∵ ㏑( $\frac{11}{6}$ ) = ㏑( $e^{8r}$ )

→ Remember ㏑( $e^{n}$ ) = n

∴ ㏑( $\frac{11}{6}$ ) = 8r

→ Divide both sides by 8

∴ 0.07576697545 = r

→ Multiply it by 100% to change it to a percentage

∴ r = 0.07576697545 × 100%

∴ r = 7.576697545 %

→ Round it to the nearest hundredth

∴ r ≅ 7.58

∴ The interest rate is 7.58%
