Answer:
- $17,500 at 8%
- $17,500 at 14%
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction that needs to be invested at the higher rate is ...
(11% - 8%)/(14% -8%) = 3%/6% = 1/2
Half the money should be invested at each of the rates:
$17,500 for 8% return
$17,500 for 14% return.
_____
If you let x represent the amount at the higher rate, then the total return is ...
14%x + 8%(35000 -x) = 11%(35000)
(14% -8%)x = (11% -8%)(35000) . . . . subtract 8%·35000
x = (11% -8%)/(14% -8%)×35000 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Note that this formula is exactly the one we started with, above.
To cover the width we need 12÷¾=12×4/3=16 tiles.
To cover the length we need 15×4/3=20 tiles, so to cover the floor area we need 16×20=320 tiles.
Answer:
784m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
is a rectangle with sides of 40m and 20m, in the upper right corner a right triangle has been removed with the legs of: 40 - 32 = 8m and 20 - 16 = 4m, we find the area of the rectangle (b * h).
40 * 20 = 800m ^ 2, then we find the area of the right triangle
1/2 b * h: 1/2 8 * 4 = 16 m ^ 2.
we remove the area of the triangle from the rectangle and we have the area of the figure: 800 - 16 = 784m^2
