Consider a trapezoid GJKF with:
GH=JH (hypothesis)
FL=KL (hypothesis)
so HL is the median of trapezoid GJKF
so: HL=1/2(2.5+1.2)=1.85
for all
in [-3, 0], so
is non-decreasing over this interval, and in particular we know right away that its minimum value must occur at
.
From the plot, it's clear that on [-3, 0] we have
. So

for some constant
. Given that
, we find that

so that on [-3, 0] we have

Answer:
- $5000 at 10%, $10000 at 12% and 10000 at 16%
Step-by-step explanation:
- <em>One part of $ 25,000 is invested at 10% interest, another part at 12%, and the rest at 16%. The total annual income from the three investments is $ 3,200. Also, the income from the investment at 16% is equal to the income from the other two investments combined. How much was invested at each interest rate?</em>
==================
Let the parts be x, y and z
<u>As per given we get below system of equations:</u>
- x + y + z = 25000
- 0.1x + 0.12y + 0.16z = 3200
- 0.1x + 0.2y = 0.16z
<u>Substitute 0.1x + 0.2y in the second equation:</u>
- 0.16z + 0.16z = 3200
- 0.32z = 3200
- z = 3200/0.32
- z = 10000
<u>Now we have:</u>
- x + y + 10000 = 25000 ⇒ x + y = 15000
and
- 0.1x + 0.12y + 0.16*10000 = 3200 ⇒ 0.1x + 0.12y = 1600
<u>Multiply the second equation and then subtract the first one:</u>
- 10(0.1x + 0.12y) = 10(1600) ⇒ x + 1.2y = 16000
- x + 1.2y - (x + y) = 16000 - 15000
- 0.2y = 1000
- y = 10000
Then
<u>So the parts are:</u>
- $5000 at 10%, $10000 at 12% and 10000 at 16%

First look at the difference of the items sold between the 2 people. Clearly Lizzie sold 9 more boxes of peaches and earned 162 more dollars. We can solve and get that each box of peaches are worth 18 dollars. Then use what we found out --> 4 boxes of apples+1 boxes of peaches = 54 dollars. so 4 boxes of apples are worth 54-18=36 dollars. and thus each box of apples are worth 9 dollars.
Answer: each box of apples are wroth 9 dollars and each box of peaches are wroth 18 dollars. Done!
1485 this is wrong I think
