Answer:

[/tex]1\frac{2}{3}[/tex] inch

Step-by-step explanation:

thickness of wood = 1  1 / 3 inches = 4 / 3 inches

Amount of total drill = 3 inches

Amount of joist drill = amount of total drill - thickness of wood

= 3 - \frac{4}{3}=\frac{9-4}{3}=\frac{5}{3}=1\frac{2}{3}

Thus, the amount of drill in joist is [/tex]1\frac{2}{3}[/tex] inch.

Holly wants to save money for an emergency. Holly invests 1,500 in an account that pays an interest rate of 6.75%. How many year
lina2011 [118]
The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value 7300
P present value 1500
R interest rate 0.0675
T time?
7300=1500 (1+0.0675)^t
Solve for t
Divide both sides by 1500
7300/1500=1.0675^t
Take the log for both sides
Log (7300/1500)=t×log (1.0675)
Divide both sides by log (1.0675)
T=log(7,300÷1,500)÷log(1.0675)
T=24.2 years round your answer to get 24 years

Hope it helps!

5x +1 = -3+10x how do you solve this
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

x = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Group like terms together.  Start by subtracting 1 from both sides, obtaining

5x = -4 + 10x.

Then combine the x terms, obtaining 4 = 5x.

Solving for x by dividing both sides by 5, we get x = 4/5.
