Answer:
-15
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 24 gallons of water that need to be split up into 3 buckets. How many gallons must each bucket hold? Y=number of gallons that each bucket holds.
Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w
68 = 2L + 2w
68 - 2L = 2w
2(34 - L) = 2(w)
34 - L = w
********************
Area (A) = L * w
240 = L (34 - L)
240 = 34L - L²
L² - 34L + 240 = 0
(L - 10)(L - 24) = 0
L = 10 or L = 24
w = 34 - L = 34 - 10 = 24 or w = 34 - 24 = 10
Answer: width = 10, length = 24 assuming length is bigger than the width
Answer:
$108.19
Step-by-step explanation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 3.6%/100 = 0.036 per year.
Solving our equation:
P = 119.88 / ( 1 + (0.036 × 3)) = 108.19494584838
P = $108.19
The principal investment required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $119.88 from simple interest at a rate of 3.6% per year for 3 years is $108.19.
Hope this helps!
