Answer:

Onyango is 48, his daughter is 16 and his son is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call Onyango's age x, therefore his daughter and son's ages are 1/3 x and 1/4 x respectively. We can write:

x + 8 = 12 + (1/3x + 8 + 1/4x + 8)

x + 8 = 7/12x + 28

5/12x = 20

x = 48 → 1/3x = 48 / 3 = 16, 1/4x = 48 / 4 = 12

Supriya invested $14,320 in a highly rated ETF. At the end of four years, she had $18,434. What was her annual effective yield o
adoni [48]

Answer:

6.517%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a multi-year investment and we are not working with a $1 initial investment. There is no mention of compounding so we will use formula A=P0⋅(1+r)N with A=$18,434 and P0=$14,320. We do not know the value of r. However, N=4 years. Substituting the values we have $18,434=$14,320⋅(1+r)4. Divide both sides of the equation by $14,320. Next, take the fourth root of both sides of the equation and subtract 1 to find the decimal form of r.

$18,4341.287291.065170.06517=$14,320⋅(1+r)4=(1+r)4=1+r=r

Finally, convert r to a percent.

r=0.06517×100%=6.517%

Is 432 divisible by 9<br> I’m looking for the estimate 432 divided by 9
Monica [59]

Answer:

Yes (432 = 9 x48).

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick you need to know is the theorem that says that if the digits in a number add up to a multiple of 9, then the number itself is divisible by 9.

So we go 4+3+2 = 9.

So as this sum of 9 is divisible by 9, it means 432 is also divisible by 9.

If you want to work out the actual answer of 432 divided by 9, you can estimate it by doing 450 ÷ 9 = 50. Then see that 432 is 18 less than 450. And 18 = 2x9. So the answer to the division is 50-2 = 48.
