Answer:

$4600

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation to represent the problem.

Interest is calculated by multiplying the interest rate with the investment. <u>Multiplying each of the rates</u> (2%, 7% and 9%) <u>in decimal form with the investment amount is equal to the annual interest</u>, (828).

Convert a percentage to decimal form by dividing by 100:

2% ÷ 100 => 0.02

7% ÷ 100 => 0.07

9% ÷ 100 => 0.09

let "P" represent the amount of money for the total investment

0.02P + 0.07P + 0.09P = 828

Use the equation to solve for "P". Simplify by collecting like terms (numbers that have the same variable) then isolate "P" by moving the other numbers to the right side. To move a number to the other side, do it's reverse operation to both sides of the equation. (The reverse of multiplying is dividing).

0.02P + 0.07P + 0.09P = 828        Collect like terms

0.18P = 828        Isolate "P"

0.18P/0.18 = 828/0.18        Divide both sides by 0.18

P = 828/0.18         "P" is isolated because 0.18 cancelled out. Simplify.

P = 4600        Total investment

Therefore the total investment is $4600.

Prove system has more than one solution then it has infinite solution
Anarel [89]
This statment only works for linear systems because in non-linear systems it is okay to have more than one soultion
but if the system is linear than you can define it by it two soultions or in other words it takes two points to form a line and if two lines pass through the same points then you can define them by those point and they are the same line

Least to greatest 63.37,62.95,63.7
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

1.  62.95

2.  63.37

3.  63.7

Step-by-step explanation:

List the numbers by lining up the decimals and filling in zeros in the empty spaces to make all the numbers have the same number of digits,  then compare whole numbers first then the decimals.  There are two 63's so then you look at the decimal side one is .37 and one is .70 (add the zero so all numbers have the same number of digits)

63.37

62.95

63.70 (added the zero)
