Answer:
4.56
Step-by-step explanation:
"Ordinary" interest will be more than "exact" interest because the number of days in a year is a smaller value. The difference will be ...
Io = Prt = 5000(0.12)(200/360) = 333.33
Ie = Prt = 5000(0.12)(200/365) = 328.77
The difference is ...
333.33 -328.77 = 4.56 . . . the difference in interest values
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The question asks for the difference between exact and ordinary interest, so the result is technically negative:
328.77 -333.33 = -4.56
The correct answer is C. 4.
Typically, we look to multiply by the bottom number (the denominator) in order to get fractions to cancel out. If we multiply 1/6 by 6, we get just 1, which is why we do it.
In this problem, you have two different denominators, 2 and 4. If you multiply them all by 2, the term -3/4m will still be a fraction.
-3/4m * 2 = -3/2m
As a result, we must try 4 instead. This causes all of them to cease being a fraction. Even the one with 2 as a denominator.
-1/2 * 4 = -2

Step-by-step explanation:
ANSWER: L=13; W=9
--Please read this explanation and this will be much easier for you, it took time to type..
Set up variables first. I will lead through how to get the answer.
First get variables. So, what is Perimeter? Perimeter is like so:
P = 2L + 2W = 44ft
Now instead of using P, we'll continue with
2L + 2W = 44 because this can be used to help answer the question better than P.
"Length of the patio is 5 ft less than twice the width"
So it says "length of the patio", so we put
L =
"5 ft less than twice the width"
L = 2W - 5
Now we know what L is, and we can plug this in to our first equation!
2L + 2W = 44
L = 2W - 5
Multiply by 2...
2L = 4W - 10
Plug in...
4W - 10 (2L see?) + 2W = 44
Rearrange...
4W + 2W - 10 = 44
And solve...
=6W - 10 = 44
=6W = 44 + 10
=6W = 54
=6W/6 = 54/6
=W = 9
Now we have W. Plug this into our other equation.
L = 2W - 5
L = 2*9 - 5
L = 18 - 5
L = 13
The length of the patio is 13 ft and the width of the patio is 9 ft.
