5) Jessica has to take a train from New York to New Jersey. She looks at the map to plot her route. If 1cm equals 10

Are 5(2x-y) and 15x-5y equivalent expressions?

krek1111 [17]

No, they are not equivalent.

5(2x - y) = 10x - 5y and it is not equal to 15x - 5y.

jenna's rectangular garden borders a wall. she buys 80 ft of fencing. what are the dimensions of the garden that will maximize i

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

let 'x' be the length and the 'y' be the width of the rectangle

given Jenna's buys 80ft of fencing of rectangle so the perimeter of the rectangle is 2(x +y) = 80

x + y =40

y = 40 -x

now the area of the rectangle A = length X width

A = x y

substitute 'y' value in above A = x (40 - x)

A = 40 x - x^2 .....(1)

Step :2

now differentiating equation (1) with respective to 'x'

$\frac{dA}{dx} = 40 -2x$ ........(2)

Find the dimensions

$\frac{dA}{dx} = 0$

40 - 2x =0

40 = 2x

x = 20

and y = 40 - x = 40 -20 =20

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20

length = 20 and breadth = 20

Step 3:-

we have to find maximum area

Again differentiating equation (2) with respective to 'x' we get

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2} = -2$

Now the maximum area A = x y at x =20 and y=20

A = 20 X 20 = 400

Conclusion:-

The dimensions are x =20 and y=20 of the garden that will maximize its area is 400

verification:-

The perimeter = 2(x +y) =80

2(20 +20) =80

2(40) =80

80 =80

On 1st January 2020, Laurie invests P dollars in an account that pays a nominal annual interest rate of 5.5%, compounded quarter

andrezito [222]

Answer:

1) The common ratio = 1.055

2) The year in which the amount of money in Laurie's account will become double is the year 2032

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given information are;

The date Laurie made the investment = 1st, January, 2020

The annual interest rate of the investment = 5.5%

Type of interest rate = Compound interest

Therefore, we have;

The value, amount, of the investment after a given number of year, given as follows;

Amount in her account = a, a × (1 + i), a × (1 + i)², a × (1 + i)³, a × (1 + i)ⁿ

Which is in the form of the sum of a geometric progression, Sₙ given as follows;

Sₙ = a + a × r + a × r² + a × r³ + ... + a × rⁿ

Where;

n = The number of years

Therefore, the common ratio = 1 + i = r = 1 + 0.055 = 1.055

The common ratio = 1.055

2) When the money doubles, we have;

2·a = a × rⁿ = a × 1.055ⁿ

2·a = a × 1.055ⁿ

2·a/a = 2 = 1.055ⁿ

2 = 1.055ⁿ

Taking log of both sides gives;

㏒2 = ㏒(1.055ⁿ) = n × ㏒(1.055)

㏒2 = n × ㏒(1.055)

n = ㏒2/(㏒(1.055)) ≈ 12.95

The number of years it will take for the amount of money in Laurie's account to double = n = 12.95 years

Therefore, the year in which the amount of money in Laurie's account will become double = 2020 + 12..95 = 2032.95 which is the year 2032

The year in which the amount of money in Laurie's account will become double = year 2032.
