Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)
Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)
Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)
==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy
But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50
Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5
The information shown here only shows a principal sum, a rate of interest and a period or time. There is no question as to what is needed. But suppose the need is for simple interest, then we calculate using the given information and the formula:
I = PRT
where I is simple interest, P is the principal, R is the rate per year, and T is time
P = 290, T is 6 months which is 0.5 years, R = 12.5 % which is written as 0.125 in decimal fraction.
I = 290 × 0.125 x 0.5 → I = 18.125
Therefore after 6 months , the interest earned will be 18. 125 dollars
Answer:
The soultion is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply the given x values by the function rule, that’s how you get ur y
