She deposited two amounts, let's say "a" and "b"
"a" earning 2% interest
"b" earning 2.5% interest

the 2.5% one, is twice as much as the 2% one
so.. one can say that, whatever "a" is, "b" is twice as much,
or b = 2*a -> b = 2a

now.. .the sum of both earned interest, was $1190

so.. one can say that (2% of a) + (2.5% of b) = 1190
let' us use the decimal notation then
\frac{2}{100}a+\frac{2.5}{100}b=1190\implies 0.02a+0.025b=1190
\\ \quad \\
\textit{however, we know "b" is 2a thus}
\\ \quad \\
0.02a+0.025\boxed{b}=1190\implies 0.02a+0.025(\boxed{2a})=1190

solve for "a" to find what the "a" amount is,
to find "b", well, "b" is "2a", so just do a 2*a to get "b"

Triangle RST has vertices located at R (2,3), S (4,4), and T (5,0).
Mazyrski [523]

The slope of RS, RT, and ST are 1/2, -1 and -4 respectively

<h3>Triangle and slopes</h3>

Given the folllowing coordinates R (2,3), S (4,4), and T (5,0) os triangle RST

The formula for calculating the distance is expressed as:

  • D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

For length RS:

D = √(4-3)²+(4-2)²

RS = √1+4
RS= √5

For length RS:

RT = √(0-3)²+(5-2)²

RT = √9+9
RT= 3√2

For length ST:

D = √(0-4)²+(5-4)²

ST = √16+1
ST= √17

Since all the sides are different, the triangle is a scalene triangle.

For the slope of the sides

For the side RS;

Slope = 4-3/4-2

Slope of RS = 1/2

For the side RT:

Slope = 0-3/5-2

Slope of RT = -3/3 = -1

For the side ST

Slope of ST = 0-4/5-4
Slope of ST = -4/1 = -4

Hence the slope of RS, RT, and ST are 1/2, -1 and -4 respectively
