(x + 1)·(x + 1 + 11) = (x + 4)·(x + 4 + 1) --> x = 2

Tools like "photomath" are able to help you solving such equations.

Answer:

Amount in 4% account: $550

Step-by-step explanation:

Use simple interest formula $I=P\cdot r\cdot t,$ where

I = interest

P = principal

r = rate (as decimal)

t = time.

4% account:

$P_1=x\\ \\r_1=0.04\\ \\t_1=1,$

then

$I_1=x\cdot 0.04\cdot 1=0.04x$

5% account:

$P_2=1,500-x\\ \\r_2=0.05\\ \\t_2=1,$

then

$I_2=(1,500-x)\cdot 0.05\cdot 1=0.05(1,500-x)$

You have earned $69.50 in total, so

$I_1+I_2=69.50\\ \\0.04x+0.05(1,500-x)=69.50\\ \\4x+5(1,500-x)=6,950\\ \\4x+7,500-5x=6,950\\ \\4x-5x=6,950-7,500\\ \\-x=-550\\ \\x=550\\ \\1,500-x=1,500-550=950$

Amount in 4% account: $550

Amount in 5% account: $950

A Florida factory produces fishing reels at a rate of 800 per day, every day. In April, they are forced to cut their production

rewona [7]

First find 15% of 800 and subtract that from 800 ( 800-(.15*800)) which equals 680 and multiply the 680 by the 30 days of April. You will get 20400

A 15 ft ladder makes a 52° angle with the ground. How far will the top of the ladder be above the ground.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

11.820 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that ...

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with 52° as the base angle. The side opposite is the height up the building where the top of the ladder rests. So, you have the relation ...

sin(52°) = height/(15 ft)

Multiplying by the denominator gives you ...

height = (15 ft)·sin(52°) ≈ 11.820 ft

___

You may need to round this number appropriately.

Ai. Arithmetic sequence

Aii. Tn = 5 + 7n

Bi. Geometric

Bii. Tn = 8 × 2ⁿ¯¹

Step-by-step explanation:

To successfully answer the questions given above, note the following:

1. If the sequence is Arithmetic, then:

2nd – 1st = 3rd – 2nd = common difference (d)

2. If the sequence is geometric, then,

2nd / 1st = 3rd / 2nd = common ratio (r)

3. A sequence can not be arithmetic geometric at the same time.

4. The nth term of arithmetic sequence is:

Tn = a + (n – 1)d

5. The nth term of geometric sequence is:

Tn = arⁿ¯¹

A. Sequence => 12, 19, 26

i. Determination of the type of sequence.

We'll begin by calculating the common difference

1st term = 12

2nd term = 19

3rd term = 26

Common difference (d) = 2nd – 1st

d = 19 – 12 = 7

d = 3rd – 2nd

d = 26 – 19 = 7

Since a common difference exist in the sequence, the sequence is arithmetic sequence.

ii. Determination of the nth term.

Common difference (d) = 7

1st term (a) = 12

nth term (Tn) =?

Tn = a + (n – 1)d

Tn = 12 + (n – 1)7

Tn = 12 + 7n – 7

Tn = 5 + 7n

B. Sequence => 8, 16, 32

Bi. Determination of the type of sequence.

Let us begin by calculating the common ratio.

1st term = 8

2nd term = 16

3rd term = 32

Common ratio (r) = 2nd / 1st

r = 16 / 8

r = 2

r = 3rd / 2nd

r = 32 / 16

r = 2

Since a common ratio exist in the sequence, the sequence is geometric.

Bii. Determination of the nth term.

Common ratio(r) = 2

1st term (a) = 8

nth term =?

Tn = arⁿ¯¹

Tn = 8 × 2ⁿ¯¹
