Answer:

hey

Step-by-step explanation:

tana=5/10

tan a=1/2

1 I \ x

I \

I__a\

Let unknown side be x

angle be a

using pythagorus theorem,1²+2²=x²

x²=5

x= √5,-√5

cos a= 2/√5

but a is in quadrant III ,Cos is negative

A man invests his savings in two accounts, one paying 6% and the other paying 10% simple interest per year. He puts twice as muc

Masteriza [31]

Let x represent amount invested in the higher-yielding account.

We have been given that a man puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky. So amount invested in the lower-yielding account would be $2x$ .

We are also told that his annual interest is $6600 dollars. We know that annual interest for one year will be principal amount times interest rate.

$I=Prt$ , where,

I = Amount of interest,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

t = Time in years.

We are told that interest rates are 6% and 10%.

$6\%=\frac{6}{100}=0.06$

$10\%=\frac{10}{100}=0.10$

Amount of interest earned from lower-yielding account: $2x(0.06)=0.12x$ .

Amount of interest earned from higher-yielding account: $x(0.10)=0.10x$ .

$0.12x+0.10x=6600$

Let us solve for x.

$0.22x=6600$

$\frac{0.22x}{0.22}=\frac{6600}{0.22}$

$x=30,000$

Therefore, the man invested $30,000 at 10%.

Amount invested in the lower-yielding account would be $2x\Rightarrow 2(30,000)=60,000$ .

Therefore, the man invested $60,000 at 6%.

Please help me this will mark brainiest thx I will appreciate it thank you

Savatey [412]

Answer:

z=40 degrees

x=90 degrees

y=40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve z you know that 50+90+z= 180 degrees. So z equals 40. To solve x you subtract 90 from 180 to get 90 degrees. To solve you add 50+x+y. You know that x= 90. You would add the angles together to get 180 degrees. 50+90=140 and 180-140 equals 40. Sorry if i'm wrong.

$13,957 is invested, part at 7% and the rest at 6%. If the interest earned from the amount invested at 7% exceeds the interest e

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The Amount invested at 7% interest is $12,855

The Amount invested at 6% interest = $1,102

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Total money invested = $13,957

Let The money invested at 7% = $p_1$ = $A

And The money invested at 6% = $p_2$ = $13957 - $A

Let The interest earn at 7% = $I_1$

And The interest earn at 6% = $I_2$

$I_1$ - $I_2$ = $833.73

Let The time period = 1 year

Now,<u> From Simple Interest method</u>

Simple Interest = $\dfrac{\textrm principal\times \textrm rate\times \textrm time}{100}$

Or, $I_1$ = $\dfrac{\textrm p_1\times \textrm 7\times \textrm 1}{100}$

Or, $I_1$ = $\dfrac{\textrm A\times \textrm 7\times \textrm 1}{100}$

And

$I_2$ = $\dfrac{\textrm p_2\times \textrm 6\times \textrm 1}{100}$

Or, $I_2$ = $\dfrac{\textrm (13,957 - A)\times \textrm 6\times \textrm 1}{100}$

∵ $I_1$ - $I_2$ = $833.73

So, $\dfrac{\textrm A\times \textrm 7\times \textrm 1}{100}$ - $\dfrac{\textrm (13,957 - A)\times \textrm 6\times \textrm 1}{100}$ = $833.73

Or, 7 A - 6 (13,957 - A) = $833.73 × 100

Or, 7 A - $83,742 + 6 A = $83373

Or, 13 A = $83373 + $83742

Or, 13 A = $167,115

∴ A = $\dfrac{167115}{13}$

i.e A = $12,855

So, The Amount invested at 7% interest = A = $12,855

And The Amount invested at 6% interest = ($13,957 - A) = $13,957 - $12,855

I.e The Amount invested at 6% interest = $1,102

Hence,The Amount invested at 7% interest is $12,855

And The Amount invested at 6% interest = $1,102 . Answer

A gardener uses 1/3 of a liter of water to water 2/7 of a garden.

Serjik [45]

the gardener would need (1 + 1/6) liters of water to water the whole garden.

<h3>How much water would the gardener need to water the whole garden?</h3>

Here we know that the gardener needs 1/3 of a liter of water to water 2/7 of a garden.

Then we have the relation:

1/3 L = 2/7 of a garden.

Now, we want to get a "1 garden" in the right side of the equation, then we can multiply both sides by (7/2), so we get:

(7/2)*(1/3) L = (7/2)*(2/7) of a garden

(7/6)L = 1 garden.

(1 + 1/6) L = 1 garden

This means that the gardener would need (1 + 1/6) liters of water to water the whole garden.
