Ken invests 6,000 into two accounts one account earns 8% interest and the other earns 12% interest after one year his total inte

Len [333]

Answer: ken invested $3500 in the 8% account.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested in the account earning 8% interest.

Let y represent the amount invested in the account earning 12% interest.

Ken invests 6,000 into two accounts one account earns 8% interest and the other earns 12% interest. This means that

x + y = 6000

The formula for simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

Considering the account earning 8%

I = (x × 8 × 1)/100 = 0.08x

Considering the account earning 12%

I = (y × 12 × 1)/100 = 0.12y

After one year, his total interest earned from the two accounts totaled $580 . This means that

0.08x + 0.12y = 580 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 6000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.08(6000 - y) + 0.12y = 580

480 - 0.08y + 0.12y = 580

- 0.08y + 0.12y = 580 - 480

0.04y = 100

y = 100/0.04

y = 2500

x = 6000 - y = 6000 - 2500

x = 3500

Does it matter what order you add the numbers in a problem? explain how chips and numbers lines support your answer.

Mrac [35]

Answer: No, it does not matter.

Step-by-step explanation:

In addition the order does not matter, this is because of the commutative property of the addition, that says that: A + B = B + A

and the associative property, that says that:

A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C

for example, if you have 4 chips and your friend gives you her 5 chips, now you have a total of 4 + 5 = 9 chips.

The case is the same if you have 5 chips and your friend gives you 4 chips, now you have 5 + 4 = 9 chips.

Other example is that:

5 chips + ( 2chips + 1 chip) = 5 chips + 3 chips = 8 chips

(5 chips + 2 chips) + 1 chip = 7 chips + 1 chip = 8 chips

You can see that the order does not matter.

Plz help I have no idea how to answer it

saveliy_v [14]

5. Answer: see explanation

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

If the roots are m and 3m, then x = m and x = 3m

⇒ x - m = 0 and x - 3m = 0

⇒ (x - m)(x - 3m) = 0

⇒ x² - 4mx + 3m² = 0

Since x² + px + q = 0 then p = -4m and q = 3m²

3p² = 3(-4m)² 16q = 16(3m²)

= 3(16m²) = 48m²

= 48m²

3p² = 48m² = 16q ⇒ 3p² = 16q

6. Answer: 8 or 18

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The Area of the entire rectangle (A = L × w) is 12 × 10 = 120

The Area of the shaded region is 72, so the Area of the non-shaded region is 120 - 72 = 48.

There are two non-shaded triangles.

Bigger non-shaded Δ: L = 12-x, w = 10 ⇒ $A = \dfrac{10(12-x)}{2}$
Smaller non-shaded Δ: L = x, w = x ⇒ $A=\dfrac{x(x)}{2}$

Combine the Areas of both triangles and set it equal to the Area of the non-shaded region:

$\dfrac{x(x)}{2}+\dfrac{10(12-x)}{2}=48\\\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{2}+\dfrac{120-10x}{2}=48\\\\\\\dfrac{x^2-10x+120}{2}=48\\\\\\x^2-10x+120=96\\\\x^2-10x+24=0\\\\(x-4)(x-6)=0\\\\x - 4 = 0\quad or\quad x-6=0\\x=4\qquad or\qquad x=6\\\\\text{Based on the image provided, it appears that the x-value will be the}\\\text{smallest of the two possible solutions (4), but both solutions are valid.}$

Area of ΔBEF:

$\text{when x = 4, A =}\ \dfrac{4(4)}{2}=\dfrac{16}{2}=8\\\\\\\text{when x = 6, A =}\ \dfrac{6(6)}{2}=\dfrac{36}{2}=18$

3+2(2p+4t) some one plz HELP ME.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

3+4p+8t

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an expression:

3+2(2p+4t)

We will simplify the equation:

Firstly, we will open the parenthesis by multiplying it with the 2 given outside of the parenthesis we get:

3+4p+8t

Since, we have two variables so it can not be further solved therefore,

This is the maximum simplification of the given expression.
