<em><u>Question:</u></em>

How fast should the ant walk to go around the rectangle in 4 minutes if the sides are 12 inches and 16 inches

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

The ant should walk 14 inches per minute

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Dimensions of rectangle are 12 inches and 16 inches

<em><u>Find the perimeter of rectangle</u></em>

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Perimeter = 2(12 + 16)

Perimeter = 2(28) = 56

Thus perimeter of rectangle is 56 inches

Time taken = 4 minutes

We have to find the speed at which ant covers 56 inches in 4 minutes

<em><u>The speed is given by formula:</u></em>

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

speed = \frac{56}{4} = 14

Thus the ant should walk 14 inches per minute

Mike bought five items for lunch that cost a total of $4.55. Hot dogs cost $1.10 each and cookies cost $0.75 each. Which of thes
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

1.1h+0.75c=4.55---------------1

h+c=5--------------2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

total lunch items= 5

let hot dogs be h

and cookies be c

cost of hot dogs = $1.10

cost of cookies = $0.75

total cost = $4.55

Step two:

The linear model for the total cost is given as

4.55=1.1h+0.75c---------------1

and the model for the number of items is

h+c=5--------------2

The systems of the equation for the situation is

1.1h+0.75c=4.55---------------1

h+c=5--------------2

Find the 16th term for the sequence a(n)=7-2n.
N76 [4]
In the expression that you are given, n is the is number in the sequence. So in this scenario, n=16. So substitute the 16 into the equation. a(n)=7-2(16)=7-32=-25. So the 16th term in the sequence is -25.

Three years ago, you purchased a stock at a price of $33.48. The stock paid annual dividends of $.60 per share. Today, the stock
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

10.51%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Period Initial value = $33.48

Period end value = $35.20

Annual dividend paid = $0.60

Total time = 3 years

Therefore,

the total dividend paid i.e the income = 3 × $0.60 = $1.80

Now,

The holding period is given as:

= \frac{ \textup{Income + end period value - initial period value }}{\textup{initial period value}}\times100\%

= \frac{ \textup{1.80 + 35.20 - 33.48}}{\textup{33.48}}\times100\%

= \frac{ \textup{3.52}}{\textup{33.48}}\times100\%

= 10.51%
