Answer:

r\geq 1\frac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r represents the number of inches of rain Hector's lawn still needs.

It has rained \frac{3}{8} inch already this week.

We have been given that Hector waters his lawn if it does not get least 1\frac{1}{2} inches of rain each week.This means the amount of it already rained this week plus r should be greater than or equal to 1\frac{1}{2}.

We can represent this information in an inequality as:

\frac{3}{8}+r\geq 1\frac{1}{2}

\frac{3}{8}+r\geq \frac{3}{2}

\frac{3}{8}-\frac{3}{8}+r\geq \frac{3}{2}-\frac{3}{8}

r\geq \frac{3*4}{2*4}-\frac{3}{8}

r\geq \frac{12}{8}-\frac{3}{8}

r\geq \frac{12-3}{8}

r\geq \frac{9}{8}

r\geq 1\frac{1}{8}

Therefore, the inequality r\geq 1\frac{1}{8} represents the inches of rain Hector's Lawn still needs.

Given:

Rain required = 11.5 inches/week
It rained = 3/8 inch this week

Working equation:

The number of inches of rain, r, Hector's lawn still needs so that he won't have to water it.

11/2 ≤ 3/8 + r

where r is the number of inches of rain needed by Hector's lawn.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

$1596

$1597.28

$1598.33

bank A

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating compound interest:

FV = P (1 + r/m)^mn

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

m = number of compounding

Bank A = $1500(1.064) = $1596

Bank B = $1500( 1 + 0.063/12)^12 = 1597.28

Bank C = $1500( 1 + 0.0635/365)^365 = $1598.33

Bank A pays the least amount of interest
