Answer:

<u>$0.14</u> less to pay this week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cans of black beans usually cost $1.34 each.

This week they are on sale for 5 cans for $6.00.

You bought one can last week and one can this week.

Now, to find the amount more or less to pay this week.

So, we use unitary method to get the price of can this week:

If, 5 cans cost this week = $6.00.

Then, 1 can cost this week = $\frac{6}{5}=\$1.20.$

<u><em>Thus, the cans of black beans cost $1.20 this week.</em></u>

<u><em>And, last week the cans cost $1.34 each.</em></u>

<u><em>So, the cost of can this week is less than last week.</em></u>

Now, we get the difference in the cost of can of this week than last week by subtracting the cost of can last week from cost of can last week:

$\$1.34-\$1.20\\\\=\$0.14.$

Therefore, $0.14 less to pay this week.

Find the annual rate of interest. Principal = 4600 rupees Period = 5 years Total amount = 6440 rupees Annual rate of interest =

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The rate of interest for compounded annually is 6.96 % .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The principal amount = Rs 4600

The time period = 5 years

The amount after 5 years = Rs 6440

Let The rate of interest = R %

<u>From compounded method</u>

Amount = Principal × $(1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{\textrm Time}$

or, Rs 6440 = Rs 4600 × $(1+\dfrac{\textrm R}{100})^{\textrm 5}$

Or, $\frac{6440}{4600}$ = $(1+\dfrac{\textrm R}{100})^{\textrm 5}$

or, 1.4 = $(1+\dfrac{\textrm R}{100})^{\textrm 5}$

Or, $(1.4)^{\frac{1}{5}}$ = 1 + $\dfrac{R}{100}$

or, 1.0696 = 1 + $\dfrac{R}{100}$

or, $\dfrac{R}{100}$ = 1.0696 - 1

Or, $\dfrac{R}{100}$ = 0.0696

∴ R = 0.0696 × 100

I.e R = 6.96

Hence The rate of interest for compounded annually is 6.96 % . Answer

What is the equation in point-slope form that represents the line going through (1,3) and (4,6)

Darya [45]

We have the slope m = (6-3)/(4-1) = 3/3 = 1;
Then, y - 3 = 1·( x - 1);
finally, y = x + 2.

Find the missing term (need help)

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

x² - 10x + 34

Step-by-step explanation:

given the roots are x = 5 ± 3i then the factors are

(x - (5 + 3i))(x - (5 - 3i))

= (x - 5)² - 9i² ← expand (x - 5)²

= x² - 10 x + 25 + 9 → [ i² = - 1 ]

= x² - 10x + 34

the missing term is 10x

3 3/5 + 9 3/5 answer with a mixed number in simplest form

Romashka [77]

Both fractions have the same denominator so it's going to be easy. First set up your equation:

$3 \frac{3}{5} + 9 \frac{3}{5}$

Add the whole numbers:

$3 + 9 = 12$

Now add the fractions:

$\frac{3}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{6}{5}$

add both together:

$12 + \frac{6}{5} = 12 \frac{6}{5}$

$\frac{6}{5}$ is an improper fraction so change it:

$12 \frac{6}{5} = 13 \frac{1}{5}$

Since 6 is one more than 5, add 1 to the whole number and subtract the numerator and denominator(6 - 5 = 1) and make the remaining the new numerator. That leaves you with $13 \frac{1}{5}$

Your answer is $13 \frac{1}{5}$

The coordinates of the vertices of a rectangle are (−3, 4) , (7, 2) , (6, −3) , and (−4, −1) . What is the perimeter of the rect

ki77a [65]

Answrer

Find out the what is the perimeter of the rectangle .

To prove

Now as shown in the figure.

Name the coordinates as.

A(−3, 4) ,B (7, 2) , C(6, −3) , and D(−4, −1) .

In rectangle opposite sides are equal.

Thus

AB = DC

AD = BC

Formula

$Disatnce\ formula = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}$

Now the points A(−3, 4) and B(7, 2)

$AB = \sqrt{(7- (-3))^{2} +(2- 4)^{2}}$

$AB = \sqrt{(10)^{2} +(-2)^{2}}$

$AB = \sqrt{100+4}$

$AB = \sqrt{104}$

$AB = 2\sqrt{26}\units$

Thus

$CD= 2\sqrt{26}\units$

Now the points

A (−3, 4) , D (−4, −1)

$AD = \sqrt{(-4 - (-3))^{2} +(-1- 4)^{2}}$

$AD = \sqrt{(-1)^{2} +(-5)^{2}}$

$AD = \sqrt{1 + 25}$

$AD = \sqrt{26}\units$

Thus

$BC = \sqrt{26}\units$

Formula

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)

Here

$Length = 2\sqrt{26}\ units$

$Breadth = \sqrt{26}\ units$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2(2\sqrt{26} +\sqrt{26})$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2(3\sqrt{26})$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 6\sqrt{26}$

$\sqrt{26} = 5.1 (Approx)$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 6\times 5.1$

Perimeter of a rectangle = 30.6 units.

Therefore the perimeter of a rectangle is 30.6 units.
