Answer:
A) 159.135 = X
B) 2,531.25 = X
C) 6,187.5 = X
D) 831,947.46 = X
Step-by-step explanation:
The following investments are required to be calculated:
A) $ 150 at 3% interest for 2 years
B) $ 750.00 at 1/2% interest for 3 years
C) $ 2,250.00 at 1 3/4% interest for 1 year
D) $ 2,550.00 at 3 1/4 interest for 4 years
Therefore, the following calculations must be performed:
A)
150 x (1 + 0.03) ^ 2 = X
150 x 1.03 ^ 2 = X
159.135 = X
B)
750 x (1 + 0.5) ^ 3 = X
750 x 1.5 ^ 3 = X
2,531.25 = X
C)
2,250 x (1 + 1.75) = X
2,250 x 2.75 = X
6,187.5 = X
D)
2,550 x (1 + 3.25) ^ 4 = X
2,550 x 4.25 ^ 4 = X
831,947.46 = X
Dale drove to the mountains last weekend. there was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 7 hours. when dale drove home, there was no traffic and the trip only took 5 hours. if his average rate was 18 miles per hour faster on the trip home, how far away does dale live from the mountains? do not do any rounding.
Answer:
Dale live 315 miles from the mountains
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y be the speed of Dale to the mountains
Time taken by Dale to the mountains=7 hrs
Therefore distance covered by dale to the mountain = speed × time = 7y ......eqn 1
Time taken by Dale back home = 5hours
Since it speed increased by 18 miles per hour back home it speed = y+18
So distance traveled home =speed × time = (y+18)5 ...... eqn 2
Since distance cover is same in both the eqn 1 and eqn 2.
Eqn 1 = eqn 2
7y = (y+18)5
7y = 5y + 90
7y - 5y = 90 (collection like terms)
2y = 90
Y = 45
Substitute for y in eqn 1 to get distance away from mountain
= 7y eqn 1
= 7×45
= 315 miles.
∴ Dale leave 315 miles from the mountains
Their equal because they both go the same
