Mr. Jackson invested $800 at 6% per year and $ 2400  at 4 % per year

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Mr. Jackson invested a sum of money at 6% per year, and 3 times as much at 4% per year.

Let the sum invested be ‘a’ and ‘3a’ at 6% per year and 4 % per year respectively

Also, his annual return totaled $144

We can form following equation on the basis of question:-

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Then, } \frac{a \times 6 \times 1}{100}+\frac{3 a \times 4 \times 1}{100}=\$ 144} \\\\ {\frac{6 a}{100}+\frac{12 a}{100}=144} \\\\ {\frac{6 a+12 a}{100}=144} \\\\ {\frac{18 a}{100}=144} \\\\ {18 a=14400} \\\\ {a=14400 \div 18}\end{array}

a = $800

The amount of money invested at 6% = a = 800

The amount of money invested at 4 % = 3a = 3(800) = 2400

So, the amount of money invested at 6% is $800 and the amount of money invested at 4% is $ 2400

d (x) = 15 + 0.5x

Where, by definition, we have the following variables:

d (x): the daily expense per truck (in dollars)

x: the daily mileage

Therefore, the domain of the function is given by:

x> 0

Equivalently:

[0, ∞)

Answer:

The input for the function includes all positive real numbers

kaheart [24]

Answer:

B. Stratified sampling, because there are specific subgroups to investigate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stratified Sampling is a sampling method and is used when the population has subgroups with different characteristics. Random sampling is applied in each of the sub-groups <em>proportional </em>to their size and then these samples <em>combined </em>together to create sample of the study.

Since there are three towns with people from different occupations ( retirees,business owners, office workers), it is better to use stratified sampling method.
