Answer:

The elm tree is 40 5/6 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Tallness of the apple tree = x

Tallness of the elm tree= 3 1/2x

Apple tree = 10 2/3 feet tall

Elm tree = 3 1/2x

Where x= 10 2/3

Elm = 3 1/2 (10 2/3)

= 7/2(35/3)

= 7*35 / 2*3

= 245 / 6

= 40 5/6 inches tall

The elm tree is 40 5/6 inches tall

The future value of $1,000 invested at 8% compounded semiannually for five years is \bold{\$ 1,480}

<u>Solution:</u>

\bold{A = P (1 + i )^{n}} ----------- equation 1

A = future value  

P= principal amount  

i = interest rate

n = number of times money is compounded  

P = 1000

i = 8 %

\mathrm{n} = \text { compounding period } \times \text {number of years}

(Compounding period for semi annually = 2)

\mathrm{n} = \text { compounding period } \times \text {number of years}

Dividing “i” by compounding period

i = \frac{8 \%}{2} = 0.04

Solving for future value using equation 1

\begin{array}{l}{A = 1000(1 + 0.04)^{10}} \\\\ {=1000 (1.04)^{10}}\end{array}

= 1480.2

\approx 1,480 \$

-1/2 +2=-x+7 how do you figure this out​
Feliz [49]

Answer:

x = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

-\frac{1}{2} +2=-x+7

-\frac{1}{2} +2= 1.5

1.5=-x+7

       -7    -7

-5.5 = -x

Divide both sides by -1.

5.5 = x

The function, y(r)=2.76r , is used to convert Russian rubles in Japanese yen, and the function, P(y)=0.16y , is used to convert
timurjin [86]

They probably want 880 pesos, since they asked you do intermediate rounding

but a more accurate answer would be
883.20 pesos

To combine the functions, you'd substitute in 2.76r for y in 0.16y. This would give you 0.16(2.76r), which simplifies to 0.4416r, but they want you round this to the nearest hundredth, so its really 0.44r.  Substitute in the 2000 for r and you get 0.44 * 2000 which is 880 pesos
