Four years after opening an account that paid simple interest of 4.25% annually, a depositor withdrew the $2,380 in interest ear

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to figure out how much money was left in the account after the interest was withdrawn, we have to first find out how much money was initially deposited to earn that amount of interest! The means to find that initial investment is found in the simple interest formula

prt = I, where

p is the initial investement,

r is the interest rate in decimal form,

t is the time in years, and

I is the interest earned. Notice that we have all those things but the p.

Filling in:

p(.0425)(4) = 2380 and

.17p = 2380 so

p = 14000

That means that 14000 was initially invested. If the depositor withdrew the 2380, then

14000 - 2380 is the amount left in the account, namely, $11620

The length of a rectangle is 3 centimeters less than four times its width. Its area is 10 square centimeters. Find the dimension

Kay [80]

Answer:

W = 2 cm

L = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a four sided shape with 4 perpendicular angles. It has two pairs of parallel sides which are equal in distance: width and length. Its area, the amount of space inside it, can be found using the formula A = l*w. If the area is 10 cm² and the length is "3 cm less than 4 times the width" or 4w - 3, you can substitute and solve for w.

A = l*w

10 = (4w - 3)(w)

10 = 4w² - 3w

Subtract 10 from both sides to make the equation equal to 0. Then solve the quadratic by quadratic formula.

4w² - 3w - 10 = 0

Substitute a = 4, b = -3 and c = -10.

$w = \frac{3 +/- \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4(4)(-10)} }{2(4)} = \frac{3 +/- \sqrt{9 +160)} }{8} = \frac{3 +/- \sqrt{169} }{8} = \frac{3+/-13}{8}$

There are two possible solutions which can be found.

3 + 13 / 8 = 16/ 8 = 2

3 - 13 / 8 = -10/8 = -5/4

Since w is a side length or distance, it must be positive so w = 2 cm.

If the width is 2 cm then the length is 4(2) - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5 cm.

Find the value of m that makes ABC~DEF when AB= 3, BC= 4, DE= 2m, EF= m+5, and ∠B≅∠E.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

m = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that there are two triangles $\triangle$ ABC and

$\triangle$ ABC ~

Also, the sides are:

AB= 3

BC= 4

DE= 2m

EF= m+5 and

∠B≅∠E

Please have a look at the attached figure for $\triangle$ ABC and

The triangles are similar so as per the property of similar triangles, the ratio of corresponding sides will be same.

i.e.

$\dfrac{AB}{DE} = \dfrac{BC}{EF}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{2m} = \dfrac{4}{m+5}\\\Rightarrow 3 \times (m+5) = 4 \times 2m\\\Rightarrow 3m +15= 8m \\\Rightarrow 5m=15\\\Rightarrow m = 3$

So, <em>value of m = 3.</em>
