Answer:
$18500 at 6% and $28500 at 8%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount invested at 6%. Then x+10000 is the amount invested at 8%. The total income from the two investments is the sum of the products of the amount invested and the interest rate:
x·6% +(x+10000)·8% = 3390
0.14x + 800 = 3390 . . . . . . . . collect terms
0.14x = 2590 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 800
2590/0.14 = x = 18500 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Sue has invested $18500 at 6% and $28500 at 8%.
Answer:
Greater ; Greater
Smaller ; Greater
Step-by-step explanation:
Slopes
First row
A: 15/2
B: (25-12.5)/(4-2) = 12.5/2
A has a greater slope than B
-4x + 2y = 8
2y = 4x + 8
y = 2x + 4
A: 2
B: 3/2
A has a greater slope than B
Second Row
A: (2.6-2)/(3-0) = 0.6/3 = 0.1
B: (5-4)/(4-0) = 1/4 = 0.25
A has a smaller slope than B
A: 60
B: (325-50)/5-0) = 275/5 = 55
A has a greater slope than B
