Answer: the amount invested at 8% is $16500

the amount invested at 9.5% is $20500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 8%.

Let y represent the amount invested at 9.5%.

A women invests 37,000, part at 8% and the rest at 91/2 annual interest. It means that

x + y = 37000

The formula for simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

Considering the 8% investment,

T =1 year

P = $x

R = 8%

Therefore

I = (x × 8 × 1)/100

I = 0.08x

Considering the 9.5% investment,

T =1 year

P = $y

R = 9.5%

Therefore

I = (y × 9.5 × 1)/100

I = 0.095y

If the 91/2% investment provides 627.50 more income than the 8% investment, it means that

0.095x - 0.08x = 627.5 - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 37000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.095y - 0.08(37000 - y) = 627.5

0.095y - 2960 + 0.08y = 627.5

0.095y + 0.08y = 627.5 + 2960

0.175y = 3587.5

y = 3587.5/0.175

y = 20500

x = 37000 - y = 37000 - 20500

x = 16500

Side BC is congruent to side BC.

Using the congruent angles and the angle bisectors, you can get two angles congruent to two other angles, so you use ASA to prove the triangles congruent. Then you use CPCTC to prove the sides congruent.

Answer: C.) ASA

Find the indicated area under the curve of the standard normal​ distribution; then convert it to a percentage and fill in the bl
galben [10]

Answer:

95%

Step-by-step explanation:

About 95% of the area is within two standard deviation in standard normal distribution. This can be explained by finding the probability within 2 standard deviation using standard normal distribution.

P(z1<Z<z2)=P(-2<Z<2)

P(-2<Z<2)=P(-2<Z<0)+P(0<Z<2)

P(-2<Z<2)=0.4772+0.4772

P(-2<Z<2)=0.9544

Thus, About 95% of the area is between z2 and z2
