the sum of three times one number, x, and five times a second number,y, is 77. if the sum of the two numbers is 19, find the two

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

x=9, y=10. (9, 10). The two numbers are 9 and 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=77

x+y=19

------------------

3x+5y=77

-3(x+y)=-3(19)

---------------------

3x+5y=77

-3x-3y=-57

-------------------

2y=20

y=20/2

y=10

x+10=19

x=19-10

x=9

Sam the owl is looking down at a 24° angle from the top of a tree that is 10 ft tall, when he spots a bird on the ground. How fa

Liula [17]

Answer:

24.59 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance between Sam and the bird.

We have been given that am the owl is looking down at a 24° angle from the top of a tree that is 10 ft tall, when he spots a bird on the ground. We are asked to find the distance between Sam and the bird.

We can see from our attachment that Sam, the bird and angle of depression forms a right triangle with respect to ground. We can see that side 10 ft is opposite side and and side x is hypotenuse for the 24 degree angle.

$\text{sin}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

$\text{sin}(24^{\circ})=\frac{10}{x}$

$x=\frac{10}{\text{sin}(24^{\circ})}$

$x=\frac{10}{0.406736643076}$

$x=24.5859333557$

$x\approx 24.59$

Therefore, the bird is approximately 24.59 feet away from Sam.

Investigate the difference between compounding annually and simple interest

Gennadij [26K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest formula

$A = P (1 + rt)$

Compound interest formula

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

a.

$A = 5000 (1 + 0.025*1)\\A=5000(1.025)\\A=5125$

Simple interest is $125

b

. $A = 5000 (1 + \frac{0.025}{1})^{1*1} \\A=5000(1.025)\\A= 5125$

Compound interest is $125

c. the result for both a and b are the same

d.

$A = 5000 (1 + 0.025*3) \\A=5000(1.075) \\A=5375$

the simple interest is $375

e

. $A = 5000 (1 + \frac{0.025}{1})^{1*3}] \\A=5000(1.025)^3 \\A=5000(1.077)\\A= 5385$

the compound interest is $385

f. the result compared, compound interest is $10 more than simple interest

g.

$A = 5000 (1 + 0.02*6) \\A=5000(1.12) \\A=5600$

the simple interest is $600

h.

$A = 5000 (1 + \frac{0.02}{1})^{1*6}] \\A=5000(1.12)^6 \\A=5000(1.9738) \\A= 9869$

the compound interest is $4869

i. the result from g and h, h is over 8 times bigger than g.

j. interest compound annually is not the same as simple interest, only for the case of a and b seeing that it is for 1 year. but for 2years and above there is difference as seen in c to h
