Answer:
Leo is 11 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- Alea is 5 times 3 less than leo's age
- Alea is 40 years old
- Assume that leo's age is x
* Lets change the words to equation
∵ Leo is x years old
∵ Alea is 5 times 3 less than Leo's age
- That means when we subtract 3 from Leo's age and multiply the
difference by 5 the result is Alea's age
∴ Alea's age = 5(x - 3)
- Multiply the two terms of the bracket by 5
∴ Alea's age = 5x - 15
∵ Alea is 40 years old
- Equate the expression of Alea's age by her age
∴ 5x - 15 = 40 ⇒ the equation to find Leo's age
- Add 15 to both sides
∴ 5x = 55
- Divide both sides by 5
∴ x = 11 ⇒ the solution of the equation
∵ x represents the Leo's age
∵ x = 11
∴ Leo is 11 years old
The proffesional runner can run 50/12 miles or 4 1/6.
To figure this out turn both mixed numbers into improper fractions (denominator x whole number + numerator) and multiply both of the improper fractions ( numerator x numerator denominator x denominator )
Answer:
y= -12x - 42
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept form is y=mx +b
y-6 = -12(x+4) simplify
y - 6 = -12x - 48 separate y by adding 6 to both sides of the equation
y = -12x - 42
Answer:
$1,131.20 is the amount earned
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Key skills needed: Simple Interest Formula, Operations ( +, - , x , / )</u>
1) To understand this problem, you need to know the simple interest formula.
A = P(1+rt)
A is the amount
P is the principal
R is the interest rate as a decimal
T is the time in years
2) The 1st thing we need to do is convert the interest rate into a decimal. We have 14%. To convert into decimal form, we divide it by a 100, or move the decimal 2 places to the left. This is 0.14 --> So r=0.14
3) Next we use the formula:
A = 1,010(1+ 0.14(8))
- We first do 0.14(8) which is 1.12 and then add it to the 1 value, so you will get --> A = 1,010(2.12)
- Multiply and you will get A = $2,141.20
- To find the interest earned, you subtract this by the original amount, so $2,141.20 - $1,010 which would be $1,131.20
This means $1,131.20 is your answer.
