In one baseball season, Nolan hit twice the difference of the number of home runs Mrs. Davis hit and 6. Altogether, they hit 18

home runs. How many home runs did Nolan hit that season? (Hint: You will need to use a set of parentheses in this problem with the Distributive Property).

Answer:

Nolan hitted 8 home runs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of home runs that Nolan hitted by N, and that Davis hitted by D.

So, we can write the following equations:

N = 2 * (D - 6)

N + D = 18

Now we can solve the system of equations, using the value of N from the first equation in the second one:

2 * (D - 6) + D = 18

2*D - 12 + D = 18

3*D = 30

D = 10

Now we find N:

N + D = 18

N + 10 = 18

N = 8

So we have that Nolan hitted 8 home runs.

Compound Interest Analysis With Applications

This site is a part of the JavaScript E-labs learning objects for decision making. Other JavaScript in this series are categorized under different areas of applications in the MENU section on this page.

Professor Hossein Arsham    

Compound Interest: The future value (FV) of an investment of present value (PV) dollars earning interest at an annual rate of r compounded m times per year for a period of t years is:

FV = PV(1 + r/m)mt

or

FV = PV(1 + i)n

where i = r/m is the interest per compounding period and n = mt is the number of compounding periods.

One may solve for the present value PV to obtain:

PV = FV/(1 + r/m)mt

Numerical Example: For 4-year investment of $20,000 earning 8.5% per year, with interest re-invested each month, the future value is

FV = PV(1 + r/m)mt   = 20,000(1 + 0.085/12)(12)(4)   = $28,065.30

Notice that the interest earned is $28,065.30 - $20,000 = $8,065.30 -- considerably more than the corresponding simple interest.

Effective Interest Rate: If money is invested at an annual rate r, compounded m times per year, the effective interest rate is:

reff = (1 + r/m)m - 1.

This is the interest rate that would give the same yield if compounded only once per year. In this context r is also called the nominal rate, and is often denoted as rnom.

Numerical Example: A CD paying 9.8% compounded monthly has a nominal rate of rnom = 0.098, and an effective rate of:

r eff =(1 + rnom /m)m   =   (1 + 0.098/12)12 - 1   =  0.1025.

Thus, we get an effective interest rate of 10.25%, since the compounding makes the CD paying 9.8% compounded monthly really pay 10.25% interest over the course of the year.

Mortgage Payments Components: Let where P = principal, r = interest rate per period, n = number of periods, k = number of payments, R = monthly payment, and D = debt balance after K payments, then

R = P × r / [1 - (1 + r)-n]

and

D = P × (1 + r)k - R × [(1 + r)k - 1)/r]

which of the following sets could be the sides of a right triangle? {2,3, square root 13} {5,5,2 square root 10} {5,12,15}
anastassius [24]

All of these sets meet the requirements of the triangle inequality. The sum of any two numbers in the set is greater than the third one. (You really only need to check that the sum of the smallest two is greater than the largest.)

It can help to resolve the numbers that are only indicated as to value.

√13 ≈ 3.606

2√10 ≈ 6.325

_____

Your comparisons can be ...

2 + 3 = 5 > 3.606 . . . is a triangle

5 + 5 = 10 > 6.325 . . . . . . is a triangle

5 + 12 = 17 > 15 . . . . . . . . is a triangle
