Answer:

Length of the bigger triangle is 10.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the other triangle = x

We have that,

The length of the smaller triangle = 7 units

the ratio of sides of the figures = 2 : 3

So, we get that the proportions of the lengths will be equal.

That is, \frac{2}{3}=\frac{7}{x}

i.e. x=\frac{7\times 3}{2}

i.e. x=\frac{21}{2}

i.e. x = 10.5

Hence, the length of the bigger triangle is 10.5 units.

Faye pays her family phone bill, and Jonathan’s family phone bill with her card and jonathan pays her back. If Faye bill is $120
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

<u>Jonathan has to pay Faye back US$ 240  </u>

<u>Jonathan has 4 people on his bill and Faye has 6.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's find out the amount of the phone bills, this way:

Total of the two bills = US$ 600

Faye's bill = US$ 120 more than Jonathan's

Jonathan's bill = x

Solving for x, we can use this equation:

x + x + 120 = 600

2x + 120 = 600

2x = 600 - 120

2x = 480

x = 480/2 = 240

<u>Jonathan has to pay Faye back US$ 240  </u>

2. Let's find out the number of people on each bill, this way:

Faye has two people more on her bill than Jonathan

Number of people on Jonathan's bill = x

Number of people on Faye's bill = x + 2

We will use the following equation:

240 * (x + 2) = 360x

240x + 480 = 360x

240x - 360x = -480

-120x = - 480

x = -480/-120

x = 4 ⇒ x + 2 = 6

<u>Jonathan has 4 people on his bill and Faye has 6.</u>

Emma invested $41,000 in an account paying an interest rate of 2.6% compounded monthly. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are
kvasek [131]

Answer: it will take 7 years for the value of the account to reach $49,300

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = $41000

A = $49300

r = 2.6% = 2.6/100 = 0.026

n = 12 because it was compounded 12 times in a year.

Therefore,

49300 = 41000(1 + 0.026/12)^12 × t

49300/41000 = (1 + 0.0022)^12t

1.2024 = (1.0022)^12t

Taking log of both sides of the equation, it becomes

Log 1.2024 = 12t × log 1.0022

0.08 = 12 × 0.00095 = 0.0114t

t = 0.08/0.0114

t = 7 years
