Let us say that:
x = invested at 7%
y = invested at 8.5%
and that:
<span>x + y = 12,000</span>
We can also say that:
0.07 x + 0.085 y = 900
Therefore:
0.07 x + 0.085 (12000 – x) = 900
0.07 x + 1020 – 0.085 x = 900
- 0.015 x = -120
x = $8000
so y is:
y = 12000 – 8000
y = $4,000
$8000 is invested at 7% annual interest while $4000 is invested at 8.5%
There are 10 letters in the set {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j} which is the pool of letters to choose from when making these three letter codes.
We have 10 choices for slot 1
Then 9 choices for slot 2. This is because we can't reuse the choice for slot 1
Then 8 choices for slot 3
Overall, there are 10*9*8 = 90*8 = 720 different permutations
Answer: 720
Note: you can use the nPr permutation formula with n = 10 and r = 3 to get the same answer
word choice refers to SPECIFIC WORDS chosen by the writer in preference to another.
The words are often VERBS AND ADJECTIVES
The word usually reflects the writers ATTITUDE about the topic
For example if the writer says:
¨She is knowledgeable¨
suggests respect
¨she is opinionated¨
Suggests she is irritating
I really hope that this helps!
Answer:
She must buy 90 tiles for the cost to be the same at both stores
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the no. of tiles bought for the cost to be the same at both stores
Margo can purchase tile at a store for $0.89 per tile at shop 1
Cost of x tiles =0.89x
She rent a tile saw for $45.
So, total cost at Store 1 = 0.89x+45
At another store she can borrow the tile saw for free if she buys tiles there for $1.39 per tile.
So, cost of 1 tile = 1.39
Cost of x tiles = 1.39x
ATQ
0.89x+45=1.39x
45=1.39x-0.89x
45=0.5x

90=x
Hence She must buy 90 tiles for the cost to be the same at both stores
