Step-by-step explanation:

In the first part, he was travelling with twice the speed, or Vs, for distance

48 - d, for 2 hours.

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

First part :

48 - d = 2V * 2

⇒d + 4V = 48

Second part:

d = V * 2

⇒d = 2V

Substitute 2s for d in equation 1.

2s + 4s = 48

6s = 48

s = 8

The speed in the second part is 8 mph.

The speed in the first part is 2s = 2(8) = 16

It was recently estimated that females outnumber males by about three or two. If there are 1770 people in a county, how many of

max2010maxim [7]

GIVEN

1) Females outnumber males by 3 to 2.

2) There are 1770 people in the city.

SOLUTION

Let the number of males be x and the number of females y. Therefore, the total number of people can be written to be:

$x+y=1770\text{ -----------(1)}$

If there are 3 females for every 2 males, we have that:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{y}{3}=\frac{x}{2} \\ \therefore \\ x=\frac{2y}{3}\text{ ----------(2)} \end{gathered}$

We can substitute equation (2) into equation (1) and solve for y:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{3}y+y=1770 \\ \frac{2y+3y}{3}=1770 \\ 5y=1770\times3 \\ 5y=5310 \end{gathered}$

Dividing both sides by 5, we have

$y=1062$

There are 1062 females in the county.

Simplify (8/14 - 2/8) + 1/7

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

13/28.

Step-by-step explanation:

(8/14 - 2/8) + 1/7

We can just remove the parentheses and simplify its contents:

= 4/7 - 1/4 + 1/7

= 4/7 + 1/7 - 1/4

= 5/7 - 1/4 The LCD of 7 and 4 is 28 so we have:

20/28 - 7/28

= 13/28.

An investment made in the stock market decreased at a rate of 2.2% per year for 10 years. What is the current value of

never [62]

Answer:

$800,500 (nearest dollar)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given scenario can be modeled as an exponential equation.

General form of an exponential function:

$f(x)=ab^x$

where:

a is the initial value (y-intercept)
b is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal form
x is the independent variable
y is the dependent variable

If b > 1 then it is an increasing function

If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function

The initial value (a) is the value of the investment.

Therefore, a = 1,000,000.

If the investment decreases by 2.2% each year, then it will be 97.8% of the previous year.

Therefore, b = 97.8% = 0.978.

Substitute these values into the formula to create a general equation for the scenario:

$f(x)=1000000(0.978)^x$

(where x is the time, in years).

To find the value of the investment after 10 years, substitute x = 10 into the formula:

$\implies f(10)=1000000(0.978)^{10}=800500.1586$

Therefore, the value of the investment after 10 years is $800,500 (nearest dollar).
