Answer:

50 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the following equation:

80-0.6m=100-1m

1) Add 1m to both sides:

80+0.4m=100

2) Subtract 80 from both sides:

0.4m=20

3) Divide both sides by 0.4:

m=50

Let me know if you have any difficulty understanding how I set up the equation!

For his birthday, Tyrone's parents gave him $7,790.00 which they put into a savings account that earns 15% interest compounded m
torisob [31]

Answer:

5 years and 5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

<u />

<u>Compound Interest Formula</u>

\large \text{$ \sf A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} $}

where:

  • A = final amount
  • P = principal amount
  • r = interest rate (in decimal form)
  • n = number of times interest applied per time period
  • t = number of time periods elapsed

Given:

  • A = $17,474.00
  • P = $7,790.00
  • r = 15% = 0.15
  • n = 12
  • t = number of years

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for t:

\implies \sf 17474=7790\left(1+\dfrac{0.15}{12}\right)^{12t}

\implies \sf \dfrac{17474}{7790}=\left(1.0125}\right)^{12t}

\implies \sf \ln\left(\dfrac{17474}{7790}\right)=\ln \left(1.0125}\right)^{12t}

\implies \sf \ln\left(\dfrac{17474}{7790}\right)=12t \ln \left(1.0125}\right)

\implies \sf t=\dfrac{\ln\left(\frac{17474}{7790}\right)}{12 \ln \left(1.0125}\right)}

\implies \sf t=5.419413037...\:years

Therefore, the money was in the account for 5 years and 5 months (to the nearest month).

What is x and y equal in: -2X-y=3 and x+2y=4 (find x and y using elimination)
makvit [3.9K]
-2x-y=3    ...(1)
x+2y=4    ...(2)
multiply (2) by 2 and add to (1)
-2x-y+2x+4y=3+8
3y=11
y=11/3
from (2)
x=4-2y=4-2(11/3)
or x=4-(22/3)
=(12-22)/3=-10/3
