Chandler is on a hike in the woods. He has an altimeter with him, and Chandler uses it to measure his height above sea level at

various points in his hike. He starts out at 120.4 meters above sea level, then hikes up an additional 850.0 meters to the crest of a hill. Chandler takes a break, then hikes down into a valley that is 430.7 meters below the crest. How far above sea level, in meters, is Chandler when he is in the valley?

Answer:

539.7 meters above sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay in order to solve this problem we can take it one step at a time. First, he starts at an altitude of 120.4 meters above sea level.

Then he hikes up an additional (meaning we add) 850.0 meters.

120.4 + 850.0 = 970.4

Next, Chandler hikes down (meaning we subtract) 430.7 meters.

970.4 - 430.7 = 539.7

Therefore, we can see that when Chandler is in the valley he is at an altitude of 539.7 meters above sea level.

Average national teachers salaries can be modeled using the equation y=9.25(1.06)^n , where y is the salary in thousands of doll
kiruha [24]
y=9.25(1.06)^{n}
Plug in n to find y.
n would be 50 because 2020-1970=50.

Use order of operations to solve.
y=9.25(1.06)^{50} \\ y=9.25(18.42) \\ y=170.39

Since y is the salary in thousands, multiply 170.39 by 1000.
170.39*1000=17039

A teacher can expect to have about $17,039 as a salary in the year 2020.

The attendance at a baseball game was 400 people. Student tickets cost $2 and adult tickets cost $3. Total sales were $1050. How
S_A_V [24]
We know the total tickets sold = 400. Let x be the number of adult tickets sold. That means 400 - x is the number of student tickets. The revenue from adult tickets will be $3 * x, which we can call 3x. The revenue from student ticks will be $2 * (400 - x), or 800 - 2x. The total revenue is $1050, so that means: 3x + (800 - 2x) = 1050. Removing the parentheses: 3x + 800 - 2x = 1050 Subtracting 800 from both sides: 3x - 2x = 250 Simplifying the left side: x = 250, which is the number of adult tickets. 400-x = student tickets = 400-250 = 150. ALWAYS check! In this case, check the revenue: 3x = 3(250) = 750 2(150) = 300 750 + 300 = 1050. Check!

Question: How long does it take an investment to quadruple in value if it earns 4% simple interest per year?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

It takes 75 years for the investment to quadruple in value

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

After t years, the total amount of money is:

T = E + P

In this question:

4% simple interest per year, so I = 0.04.

Quadruple:

t when T = 4P.

The interest earned is:

T = E + P

4P = E + P

E = 3P

Now we find the time.

E = P*0.04*t

3P = P*0.04*t

0.04t = 3

t = \frac{3}{0.04}

t = 75

It takes 75 years for the investment to quadruple in value
