Evaluate the expression below when y = -3. 2y + 7 -4y − 10 A

1 answer:

4 0

Hello!

Judging by the question you have provided I have figured that the best way to go about finding the solution is by using the distributive property!

This means you will want to distribute the y = -3 into the 2y+7-4y-10 equation.

However, the first step you should take is to simplify the equations.
After simplifying the equations you should come out with the new equation being -2y-3.

You now want to distribute the y=-3 into the equation!
You should get -2(-3)-3. Now solve!

The answer you get should be 3!

Hope this helped!

If the principal is $300 rate 3% time 4 years then what is the interest earned and the new balance

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

a) Interest earned = $36

New Balance = $336

b) Interest rate = 0.05 or 5%

New Balance = $517.5

c) time t = 5

New Balance = $612.5

d) Principal Amount = $675

New Balance = $783

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

a) Principal (P) = $300

Rate (r) = 3% or 0.03

Time (t)= 4 years

Interest earned = ?

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding interest

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\Simple \ Interest (I)= 300\times 0.03\times 4\\Simple \ Interest (I)= 36$

So, Interest earned = $36

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 300+36 = $336

b) a) Principal (P) = $300

Rate (r) = ?

Time (t)= 3 years

Interest earned = 67.50

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding rate

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\67.50= 450\times r\times 3\\67.50=1350\times r\\r=\frac{67.50}{1350}\\r=0.05 \ or \ 5\%$

So, Interest rate = 0.05 or 5%

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 450+67.50 = $517.5

c) Principal (P) = $500

Rate (r) = 4.5% or 0.045

Time (t)= ?

Interest earned = $112.50

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding time

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\112.50= 500\times 0.045\times t\\112.50=22.5 \times t\\t=\frac{112.50}{22.5}\\t=5$

So, time t = 5

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 500+112.50 = $612.5

d) Principal (P) = ?

Rate (r) = 8% or 0.08

Time (t)= 2 years

Interest earned = 108.00

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding Principal

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\108=P\times 0.08 \times 2\\108=P\times 0.16\\P=\frac{108}{0.16}\\P=675$

So, Principal Amount = $675

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 675+108 = $783

Of 340 male and 270 female employees at the home office of Gibraltar Insurance Company, 170 of the men and 180 of the women are

sineoko [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.486.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of employees at the home office of Gibraltar Insurance Company is 270 + 340 = 610

Number of employees on flex time are 350, out of which 170 are men and 180 are women.

We need to find the probability that out of the given employees, a randomly chosen one is on flex time and is a man.

Favorable outcomes are 170 and total outcome is 350.

Thus the probability is given by $\frac{170}{350}$ = 0.4857≈ 0.486
