Answer:

The answer is 1,875

Step-by-step explanation.

When the numbers are substituted into the formula, I equals Prt, the result is three hundred equals P times point one six times one.

Multiplying point one six times one gives us point one six.

To determine the principal, divide the interest by point one six. Now we have the principal, which is one thousand eight hundred seventy-five dollars.

Answer:

Joe's father borrowed $1,875.

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula is I = Prt

I is the interest.

P is the principal amount.

r is the rate.

t is the time in years.

Since we want to know how much money he borrowed that would be considered the prinicipal amount. Therefore, we need to manipulate the formulate so that it equal P instead of I.

We simply need to divide the rate and time from both sides of the equation in order to single out P.

I = Prt

I(\frac{1}{rt} ) = Prt(\frac{1}{rt})

\frac{I}{rt}=P

Now plug in the given information into our formula.

P= \frac{300}{0.16*1}

P = 1875

Therefore, Joe's father borrowed $1,875.

What property does the statement show? (4x8)x3=(8x4)x3
Mariana [72]
1. commutative property states that : a + b = b + a 

<span>2. 3x - 5 = 5x - 17 -- add 5 to both sides </span>
<span>3x = 5x - 17 + 5 -- subtract 5x from both sides </span>
<span>3x - 5x = -17 + 5 -- combine like terms </span>
<span>-2x = -12 -- divide both sides by -2 </span>
<span>x = 6 </span>

<span>3. slope formula : slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) </span>
<span>(3,-1) x1 = 3 and y1 = -1 </span>
<span>(-2,-5) x2 = -2 and y2 = -5 </span>
<span>now we sub </span>
<span>slope = ((-5 - (-1)) / (-2 -3) </span>
<span>slope = (-5 + 1) / -5 </span>
<span>slope = -4/-5 </span>
<span>slope = 4/5 </span>

<span>4. x = first integer </span>
<span>x + 2 = 2nd integer </span>
<span>x + x + 2 = 80 -- combine like terms </span>
<span>2x + 2 = 80 -- subtract 2 from both sides </span>
<span>2x = 80 - 2 </span>
<span>2x = 78 -- divide both sides by 2 </span>
<span>x = 39 <== this is the smallest number </span>
<span>x + 2 = 41 </span>

<span>5. p = 1/2g - 3 </span>

<span>6. The union of two sets is all the numbers in both sets, no need to copy the same number more then once. Answer is : (1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10) </span>

<span>7. 2x + 3y <= 6 -- put in y = mx + b form </span>
<span>3y <= -2x + 6 </span>
<span>y <= -2/3x + 2 </span>
<span>In y = mx + b form, the y intercept is in the b position. So the y intercept is (0,2) </span>
<span>To find the x intercept, sub in 0 for y (change inequality sign to equal sign) </span>
<span>2x + 3y = 6 </span>
<span>2x + 3(0) = 6 </span>
<span>2x = 6 </span>
<span>x = 3 </span>
<span>x intercept is (3,0) </span>
<span>So plot your points (3,0) and (0,2) </span>
<span>Connect the points with a solid line because there is an equal sign in there. </span>
<span>Shade below the line because it is less then. </span>

<span>8. 3x + 6y = 8 </span>
<span>6y = -3x + 8 </span>
<span>y = -1/2x + 4/3 </span>

<span>y = 2x - 8 </span>

<span>Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. The slope in these equations are -1/2 and 2. These are negative reciprocals of each other. </span>

<span>9. 7x + 3y - 2 + 6x + 1 + y^2 </span>
<span>y^2 + 3y + 13x - 1 </span>

<span>10. (0,6) x1 = 0 and y1 = 6 </span>
<span>(3,0) x2 = 3 and y2 = 0 </span>
<span>slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) </span>
<span>slope(m) = (0 - 6) / (3 - 0) </span>
<span>slope(m) = -6/3 </span>
<span>slope(m) = -2 </span>

<span>y = mx + b </span>
<span>(0,6) x = 0 and y = 6 </span>
<span>6 = 0(-2) + b </span>
<span>6 = b </span>

<span>your equation is : y = -2x + 6 (slope intercept form) </span>
<span>2x + y = 6 (standard form) </span>

<span>11. x + y = 5 -- put this in y = mx + b form, and the m position is your slope </span>
<span>y = -x + 5 (-x is the same as -1x) so your slope is -1 </span>

<span>12. 4y = 8x - 3 -- put in y = mx + b form, and the b stands for the y intercept </span>
<span>y = 8/4x - 3/4 </span>
<span>y = 2x - 3/4 (the y intercept is -3/4 </span>

<span>13. |a| + b --- (a = -1.4 and b = -2.7) </span>
<span>absolute values, whether they have a negative or not, they are always positive </span>
<span>|a| + b </span>
<span>|-1.4 | + (-2.7) </span>
<span>1.4 - 2.7 = -1.3 <== your answer </span>

<span>14. I cannot see the problem </span>

<span>15. -4 < 2t <= 2 --- divide everything by 2 </span>
<span>-2 < t <= 1 </span>
<span>open circle on -2, closed circle on 1, shading in between </span>

<span>16. x + 2y = -9 ---> x = -2y - 9 </span>
<span>now sub -2y - 9 in for x in the other equation </span>
<span>4x - 2y = 14 </span>
<span>4(-2y - 9) - 2y = 14 -- distribute through the parenthesis </span>
<span>-8y - 36 - 2y = 14 -- add 36 to both sides </span>
<span>-8y - 2y = 14 + 36 combine like terms </span>
<span>-10y = 50 -- divide by -10 </span>
<span>y = -5 </span>
<span>now sub -5 in for y in either of the original equations </span>
<span>x + 2y = -9 </span>
<span>x + 2(-5) = -9 </span>
<span>x - 10 = -9 </span>
<span>x = -9 + 10 </span>
<span>x = 1 </span>
<span>answer : x = 1 and y = -5 or (1,-5) </span>


<span>I was really bored so I thought I would just help out :)</span>
