While watching a football game, Jordan decided to list yardage gained as positive integers and yardage lost as negative integers

koban [17]

Answer:

There is a loss of 2 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the overall gain or loss, we add or subtract there values.

Initially, we have 0 yards.

Records 14, so 0 + 14 = 14, that is, for now a gain of 14

Then loses 7, so 14 - 7 = 7, for now a gain of 7.

Then, 7 - 9 = - 2, so in all, there is a loss of 2 yards.

How much principle, to the nearest dollar, should you invest at 4 percent in order to have $3000 for a vacation to Europe in 3 y

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Principle should be $2,667

Step-by-step explanation:

We need $3000 for a vacation to Europe in 3 years.

Using amount formula,

$A=P(1+r)^t$

Where, P is principle (P=?)

A is amount (A=3000)

r is rate of interest (r=0.04)

t is time (t=3)

Substitute the values into formula and solve for P

$3000=P(1+0.04)^3$

$3000=P(1.04)^3$

$P=\frac{3000}{1.04^3}$

$P=2666.98$

$P\approx \$2667$

Hence, Principle should be $2,667
