Answer:

11 hours she worked at the grocery store

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming,

the number of hours worked at tutoring = x

the number of hours worked at grocery store = y

which means,

the amount she made at tutoring = x* $15

the amount she made at grocery store = y*$9

we have 2 equations

<em>total number of hours</em>

1) x+y= 15  

<em>total amount she earned</em>

2) x* $15+ y* $9= $159

From equation 1

x+y= 15  

x=15-y

<em>we replace this x value in equation 2</em>

x* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15-y)* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15*15)- 15y+9y=159

225-6y=159

225-159=6y

66=6y

66/6=y

<u>11=y</u>  <em>the number of hours she worked at grocery store. </em>

<em>we place y=11 in our derived x equation</em>

x=15-y

x=15-11

<u><em>x=4 </em></u><em>the number of hours she worked at tutoring. </em>

Solving for x<br><br> r + 11 + 8r = 29
NikAS [45]

Answer:

r=2

Step-by-step explanation:

r + 11 + 8r = 29

add the like terms

r+8r+11=29

9r+11=29

then subtract 11 on both sides to eltimate 11

9r=18

lastly divide 9 on both sides

r=2

Miss lead says that if y varies directly with x and y=15 when x=-3, then y=-20 when x=4. Is she correct? Answer in complete sent
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Yes,  she is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx   is direct variation

15 = k*-3

k = -5.

So the equation of variation is

y = -5x

When x = -4:

y -5*-4 = 20.

Ashley deposits $10 000 at the end of each month for 6 times at rate of 5% compounded monthly. How much will be in her account
xz_007 [3.2K]

The future values of Ashley's periodic deposits under the five scenarios are stated in the deposit table as follows:

<h3>Deposit Table:</h3>

Item     Initial       Periodic      Deposit    Interest    Future Value    Interest

         Deposit     Deposit        Period        Rate                                    ($)

a.      $10,000     $10,000     6 months        5%        $61,774.51      $1,774.51

b.     $10,000     $10,000     3 months        5%      $30,502.78       $502.78

c.      $10,000    $10,000     6 months        5%        $51,774.51     $1,522.42

d.    $20,000    $10,000      6 months       5%        $72,201.71     $2,201.71

e.   $10,000     $10,000     6 months       5%/6%  $60,803.78       $803.78

<h3>What is the future value?</h3>

The future value of a periodic investment represents the present value of cash flows compounded at an interest rate into the future.

The future value is computed using the FV formula or factor.

It can also be computed using an online finance calculator as follows:

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Periodic Deposit = $10,000

Investment period = 6 months

Interest rate = 5% compounded monthly

<h3>a) for illustration:</h3>

N (# of periods) = 6 months

I/Y (Interest per year) = 5%

PV (Present Value) = $0

PMT (Periodic Payment) = $10,000

<u>Results</u>:

FV = $61,774.51

Sum of all periodic payments = $60,000 ($10,000 x 6)

Total Interest = $1,774.51

<h3>Other Special Cases:</h3>

c) Interest on $10,000 for 3 months is $1,522.42 ($1,774.51 - $252.09).

d)                             Future Value      Interest

5% with $20,000   $82,285.04    $2,285.04

5% with  $10,000     (10,083.33)          (83.33)

Total for 6 months   $72,201.71     $2,201.71

e)                            Future Value       Interest

5% for 3 months    $30,502.78       $502.78

6% for 3 months     $30,301.00       $301.00

Total for 6 months $60,803.78      $803.78
