Mr eliot is extremely careful with his money. He recently invested part of his $150,000 life savings in gold bullion and the res
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The amount invested in gold bullion by Mr. Eliot  =   $50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of savings Me. Eliot ha s = $150,000

Let us assume the amount invested in gold bullion = $m

So, the amount invested in bank = $150,000 - m

Now, 5% on m = \frac{5}{100}  \times m = 0.05 m

So, the profit in gold bullion  =  0.05 m

and 3% on (150,000 -m)   = \frac{3}{100}  \times  (150,000 -m) = 0.03  (150,000 -m)

= 4,500 - 0.03 m

So, the profit in bank =  4,500 - 0.03 m

Now,  the total profit  = $5,500

⇒Profit from gold bullion + ban = $5,500

⇒0.05 m +  4,500 - 0.03 m = $5,500

or, 0.02 m = 1000

⇒ m = 1000/0.02 = 50,000

Hence, the amount invested in gold bullion  =  m = $50,000

How are percent transmittance and absorbance related algebraically?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

So, if all the light passes through a solution without any absorption, then absorbance is zero, and percent transmittance is 100%. If all the light is absorbed, then percent transmittance is zero, and absorption is infinite.

Absorbance is the inverse of transmittance so,

A = 1/T

Beer's law (sometimes called the Beer-Lambert law) states that the absorbance is proportional to the path length, b, through the sample and the concentration of the absorbing species, c:  


A ∝ b · c

As Transmittance, T =\dfrac{P}{P_0}

% Transmittance, \%T=100\times T

Absorbance,

A=\log_{10} \dfrac{P_0}{P}\\\\A =\log_{10}\times \dfrac{1}{T}\\\\A=\dfrac{\log_{10} 100}{\%T}\\\\A=(2 - log_{10})\times \%T

Hence, A=\log_{10}\times \dfrac{1}{T} is the algebraic relation between absorbance and transmittance.
