Answer:

$1,701.64

Step-by-step explanation:

(see attached for reference)

recall that for compound interest, the following formula applies:

A = P [1 + (r/n) ] ^ (nt), where

A = final amount (we are asked to find this)

P = Principal amount = $1,200

r = interest rate = 5% = 0.05

t = 7 years

n = 12

Substituting these into the equation,

A = 1200 [1 + (0.05/12) ] ^ [(12)(7)]

A = $1,701.64

Kitchen tile is $1.25 per square foot . Vivian’s rectangular kitchen measures 8 feet wide by 10.5 long. How much would it cost t

Dafna11 [192]

You would do 10.5×8 since it is the area of a rectangle. That would get you 84.

You then do 84×1.25 since there is 84 square feet. That would get you 105.

It would cost her $105.

Answer:

Rectangle C is 14 cm longer than B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of Rectangle A. Rectangle B is ¹/₅ longer than A Block B,

Therefore the length of rectangle B is:

$x+\frac{1}{5}x$

Rectangle C is ¹/₃ longer than B, therefore the length of rectangle c is:

$x+\frac{1}{5}x+\frac{1}{3}(x+\frac{1}{5}x) =x+ \frac{1}{5}x+\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{15}x=x+\frac{9}{15}x$

The total length of all three rectangles is 133 cm.

Length of rectangle A + Length of rectangle B + Length of rectangle C = 133 cm

$x+x+\frac{1}{5}x +x+\frac{9}{15}x=133\\x+x+x+\frac{1}{5}x +\frac{9}{15}x=133\\3x+\frac{12}{15}x=133\\ 45x+12x=1995\\57x=1995\\x=35cm$

Therefore the length of rectangle A is 35 cm, the length of rectangle B is $35+\frac{1}{5}*35=42\ cm$ and the length of rectangle C is $35+\frac{9}{15}*35=56\ cm$
