Answer: 96 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the number of boys in the soccer league are 60% of the 160 players. Where 60% means 60/100.

Therefore, number of boys= 60/100 × 160

=0.6 x 160

=96

Solve x^2 + x - 12 = 0

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

x₁ = -4

x₂ = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+ x + 12 = 0

x = {-1±√((1²)-(4*1*-12))} / (2*1)

x = {-1±√(1+48)} / 2

x = {-1±√49} / 2

x = {-1±7} / 2

x₁ = {-1-7} / 2 = -8/2 = -4

x₂ = {-1+7} / 2 = 6/2 = 3

Check:

x₁

-4² + (-4) - 12 = 0

16 - 4 - 12 = 0

x₂

3² + 3 - 12 = 0

9 + 3 - 12 = 0

Paul has $30,000 to invest. His intent is to earn 15% interest on his investment. He can invest part of his money at 8% interest

jeka94

Answer:

Amount invested at 8% is $9000 and amount invested at 18% is $21000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amount invested at 8% be x.

Let amount invested at 18% be y.

We get the 1st equation as:

$x+y=30000$ ........(1)

We get the second equation as:

$0.08x+0.18(y)=0.15\times30000$

=> $0.08x+0.18y=4500$

or getting rid of the decimal by multiplying by 100 on both sides.

$8x+18y=450000$ ........(2)

Multiplying (1) by 8 and subtracting from (2) we get

$10y=210000$

So, y = 21000

And $x+21000=30000$

$x = 30000-21000$

So, x = 9000

Therefore, amount invested at 8% is $9000 and amount invested at 18% is $21000.
