$ 1850 was invested in 9% account

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that  

Total amount invested by man in two saving accounts = $9493

Simple interest on one account =9%

Simple interest on second account = 10%

Total interest earned = $930.80

Need to determine amount invested in 9 % account.

Let assume amount invested in account where Simple Interest is 9% = x

And assume amount invested in account where Simple Interest is 10% = y

As total amount invested in two accounts is $9493

=> x + y = 9493      

=> y = 9493 - x                              ------(1)

\text { Simple Interest }=\frac{\text { Amount Invested } \times \text {rate of interest } \times \text {time}}{100}

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Simple interest when rate of interest is } 9 \%=\frac{x \times 9 \times 1}{100}=\frac{9 x}{100}} \\\\ {\text { Simple interest when rate of interest is } 10 \%=\frac{y \times 10 \times 1}{100}=\frac{10 y}{100}}\end{array}

As total interest earned = $930.80

\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow \frac{9 x}{100}+\frac{10 y}{100}=930.80} \\\\ {\Rightarrow 9 x+10 y=930.80 \times 100} \\\\ {\Rightarrow 9 x+10 y=93080}\end{array}

On substituting value of y from equation(1) in above equation , we get

9x + 10 (9493 – x) = 93080

=> 9x  + 94930 – 10x = 93080

=> -x = 93080 – 94930

=> -x = -1850

=> x = 1850  

Amount invested in account where Simple Interest is 9% = x  = $1850

Hence $1850 was invested in 9% account.

Suppose you drive an average of 13,000 miles per​ year, and your car gets 26 miles per gallon. Suppose gasoline costs ​$3.60 a g
kow [346]
I'm assuming you're trying to find out how much you'll spend annually on gas: first you would divide the total miles driven in a year (13,000) by your car's mpg (26) giving you a quotient of 500 (the amount of times you'll have to fill up your tank) from here you will need to multiply 500 times the cost of gas ($3.60) giving you a product of $1,800 spent on gas annually.

In a circle with an 8-inch radius, a central angle has a measure of 60°. How long is the segment joining the endpoints of the ar
g100num [7]
Given the radius, circumference can be solved by the equation, C = 2πr. The circumference of the circle above is C = 2π(8 in) = 16<span>π in. To solve for the length of the segment joining the arc is the circumference times the ratio of central angle and 360 degrees.

                          Length of the segment = (16</span>π in)(60/360) = 8/3 <span>π in

Thus, the length of the segment is approximately 8.36 in. </span>
