P=present value of investment = 2800
i=interest per quarter=0.07/4=0.0175
n=number of quarters money invested (to be calculated)
Interest = P[(1+i)^n-1]=500
2800((1+0.0175)^n-1)=500
(1+0.0175)^n=500/2800+1
take log on both sides
n(log(1.0175)=log(1+500/2800)
n=log(1+500/2800)/log(1.0175)
=9.471 quarters
=37.88 months
=37.9 months [ nearest tenth of a month ]
Answer:
y=
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply both sides
8y+5=6
move the constant to the right
8y=6-5
calculate
8y=1
divide both sides
y= or y=0.125
Answer:
±3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
±sqrt(9/25)
We can separate this into
± sqrt(9) / sqrt(25)
Since these are perfect squares
±3/5
If we let x as candy A
y as candy B
a as dark chocolate in candy a
b as dark chocolate in candy b
c as caramel
d as walnut
P as profit
we have the equations:
a + c = x
2b + d = y
a + 2b ≤ 360
c ≤ 430
d ≤ 210
P = 285x + 260y
This is an optimization problem which involves linear programming. It can be solved by graphical method or by algebraic solution.
P = 285(a + c) + 260(2b +d)
If we assume a = b
Then a = 120, 2b = 240
P = 285(120 + 120) + 260(240 + 120)
P = 162000
candy A should be = 240
candy B should be = 360
