Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call these numbers x and y and model the information we have.
x=1/5y
y-x=228 (we see that x is smaller than y in the first equation, so we put it second )
We see that x is equal to 1/5y. We can switch the x in the second equation with 1/5y and solve for y.
y-1/5y=228
4/5y=228
We divide both sides by 4/5.
y=285
We know that x is 1/5 of y, so we divide by 5.
285/5=57
x=57
So, our numbers are 57 and 285.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
B.) Investing has the risk of losing principal, whereas saving does not.
Step-by-step explanation:
Saving can be accomplished a number of ways, including putting the money in a cookie jar (where it will not earn interest). Most savings institutions (banks, credit unions, and the like) are governed by rules that help to ensure the availability and safety of the balance. Often, such institutions are insured so that depositors are protected against loss of principal.
Many investment opportunities are governed by no such rules. The invested amount may be unavailable for perhaps a lengthy period of time, and any return on the investment may be dependent upon factors not under the control of the party accepting the money. There is the opportunity for complete loss of the invested amount, and the possibility of incurring additional liability in some cases.
Investment in certificates that are traded on a regulated exchange will be subject to the exchange rules, generally including the requirement that the investor be fully informed of the risks. That doesn't mean there is no risk—it just means the investor is supposed to be made aware of it.
Presume y=kx +b,then substitute (3,0)&(5,4),
When x=3,y=0,so 3k+b=0;
When x=5,y=4,so 5k+b=4;
Now u can know that k=2,b=-6.
The answer is:y=2x-6.
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
Four scores.... add them together and divide by four
(90 + 80 + 70 + 60) / 4 = 75
