The thickness of a brand new US penny that hasn't been
worn down is 1.52 millimeters.
If you have a million pennies, there are many ways to arrange them.
You can pile them all in one pile, or shovel them into many piles, or
stack them up in any number of stacks up to a half-million stacks
with two pennies in each stack, or try somehow to stack them all up
in one stack that's a million thicknesses high.
Any stack with 'n' pennies in the stack is 1.52n millimeters high.
If you somehow succeed in stacking all million of them in one stack,
then the height of that stack would be . . .
(1,000,000) x (1.52 mm) = 1,520,000 millimeters
152,000 centimeters
1,520 meters
1.52 kilometers
(about 59,842.5 inches
4,986.9 feet
1,662.3 yards
7.56 furlongs
0.944 mile
all rounded)
The answer to this equation is 2
Answer:
B. 10 months
Step-by-step explanation:
The balance on the loan will be ...
b = 1600 - 80t . . . . . . where t is the number of months of payments
The balance in the savings account will be ...
s = 500 + 25t
The savings account balance will be at least as much as the loan balance when ...
s ≥ b
500 +25t ≥ 1600 -80t . . . substitute the account balance expressions
105t ≥ 1100 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 80t -500
t ≥ 1100/105 ≈ 10.48 ≈ 10
It will take Josh 10 months to have enough savings to pay the loan in full.
_____
<em>Comment on rounding</em>
IMO, it makes no sense to round down, as Josh will NOT have enough in 10 months. He will have enough after he makes one more payment of $80. At 10 months, the loan balance is $50 more than the savings balance. It will be 11 months before there is enough savings to pay off the loan.
Answer :When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. When prices are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as $25 per ticket or $0.89 per can, they are called unit prices.
Step-by-step explanation:
Output = y
4 less = - 4 or y<
than the input = y < x by 4 or y + 4 = x
