Answer:

Amount invested at 3%= $21,000

Amount invested at 8% = $8,000

Step-by-step explanation:

$29,000 was invested in two accounts

The two accounts have annual interest of 3% and 8%

The total interest that was earned for the year is $1,270

Let y represent the amount invested at 3%

y = 3%

The amount invested at 8% can be represented as

29,000-y

Therefore the value of y can be calculated as follows

3/100 × y + 8/100(29,000-y)= 1270

0.03y + 0.08(29,000-y)= 1270

0.03y + 2320 - 0.08y= 1270

0.03y - 0.08y= 1270-2320

-0.05y= -1050

y = 1050/0.05

y= 21,000

The amount invested at 3% is $21,000

The amount invested at 8%

= 29,000-21,000

= $8000

Hence the amount invested at 3% is $21,000 and the amount invested at 8% is $8000

Use the substitution method to solve.
lord [1]

Answer:

x = 7, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for y for the first equation

2x + y = 20

-2x         -2x , eliminate 2x

y = 20-2x

now that we have found y, substitute the y in for the second equation

-5y = -6x + 12

-5(20-2x) = -6x + 12, we just changed y into 20-2x. remember that we are multiplying all of 20 - 2x by -5

-100+10x = -6x + 12, we multiplied everything from the parathesis  by -5

+100                 + 100, eliminate -100

10x = -6x + 112

+6x    +6x , eliminate 6x

16x = 112 , solve for x

x = 7

then y = 20 - 2x = 20 - 2*7 = 6

check:

2 * 7 + 6 = 20

20 = 20

-5 * 6 = -6 * 7 + 12

-30 = -42 + 12

-30 = -30

Planes Q and R are parallel. Lines a and b are shown on planes Q and R, respectively. Planes Q and R are parallel. Plane Q conta
natita [175]

Answer:

They are skew lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Which statement is true about lines a and b?

They are parallel lines.

They are perpendicular lines.

They are skew lines.

They will intersect.

As they both are in different directions they are skew lines .

Skew lines are not parallel neither they .They are also not co planar i.e they lie in different planes.

We have two plane Q and R . We have two line a and b on the different planes Q and R. Both planes are parallel but the lines a and b are in different directions. Therefore they are skew lines . They do not intersect and are also not parallel neither co planar.

What effect does replacing x with x + 2 have on the graph for the function f(x) ?
IrinaK [193]
The answer is A.

When replacing the variable 'x' by 'x + 2' the graph is shifted 2 units to the left. When we replace the variable, the function changes

from
f(x) = |x - 3| + 2

To
f(x) = |(x + 2) - 3| + 2
f(x) = |x - 1| + 2

And therefore the function is shifted 2 to the left.
