X=the weight of this man
We can suggest this equation:
5x/6+30=x
least common multiple=6
5x+180=6x
5x-6x=-180
-x=-180
x=180

A person invests $4000 at 2% interest compounded annually for 4 years and then invests the balance (the $4000 plus the interest

faltersainse [42]

$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$4000\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{2}{100}\to &0.02\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years\to &4
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=4000\left(1+\frac{0.02}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 4}\implies A=4000(1.02)^4\implies A\approx 4329.73$

then she turns around and grabs those 4329.73 and put them in an account getting 8% APR I assume, so is annual compounding, for 7 years.

add both amounts, and that's her investment for the 11 years.

Two rectangles are similar. The ratio of their corresponding sides is 1:4.

larisa [96]

ratio of perimeter is the same as ratio of sides so perimeter would be 1:4

since area is in square units you need to square the ratio (1:4)^2 which is 1:16
