Answer: If the time is 3 1/2 years (most reasonable assumption)

Her initial deposit was $160

Step-by-step explanation:  The basic formula for simple interest is

<em>i = prt  i </em>is interest, P is principal (deposit) r is the percentage (converted to a decimal) and t is time, the number of years.

For this question, you have to rearrange the equation to solve for p.

So divide both sides by rt and you have

p =  i/rt

Substitute the values given

p = 36.40/(0.065)(3.5)

Hello there! The value of x is 20 or -20

"20 or - 20" is one answer so you are supposed to answer 20 or -20, not choose only one.

Step-by-step explanation:

\large{ \frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {5}^{2} }  =  {4}^{2} }

First, we simplify 5² and 4²

\large{ \frac{ {x}^{2} }{25}  = 16}

Multiply the whole equation by 25 to get rid of the denominator.

\large{ \frac{ {x}^{2} }{25} (25) = 16(25)} \\  \large{ {x}^{2}  = 400}

Square both sides and solve the equation.

\large{ \sqrt{ {x}^{2} }  =  \pm{ \sqrt{400} }}

Also don't forget to write "plus or minus" symbol when we are solving a quadratic equation by squaring both sides.

\large{x = \pm{20}}

Rectangular classroom seats 72 students. If the seats were rearragned with 3 more seats rows in each row, the classroom would ha
Gre4nikov [31]
<span>Let the original number of seats in a row be x;
</span>Let the number rows be y;

( x + 3) * (y - 2 )= 72 and x * y = 72 => 72 + 3 * y - 2 * x = 72 => 3 * y = 2 * x;
=> x is divisible by 3;

1. x = 3 => y = 72 / 3 => y = 24;
2. x = 6 => y = 72 / 6 => y = 12;
3. x = 9 => y = 72 / 9 => y = 8;
4. x = 12 => y = 72 / 12 =. y = 6;
5. x = 24 =. y = 72 / 24 => y = 3;
6. x = 36 => y = 72 / 36 => y = 2;
7. x = 72 => y = 72 / 72 => y = 1;

My analysis tell me that the right answer is 9 seats in a row and 8 rows;
The original number in each row is 9.

En said the value of the expression 72-8^2 +6*3 is 50. What mistake did Ben make? Correct Ben’s mistake and give the value of th
posledela

Given:

72-\frac{8}{2}+6\times3

He does mistake in the order of giving preference.

We should give preference in the order, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.

But, he gave the first preferrence to the subtraction.

72-8=64

Next, he used division

64/2=32

Next he adds 32 with 8.

So, he gets 50.

But the actual simplification is,

Simplifying we get,

\begin{gathered} 72-\frac{8}{2}+6\times3=72-4+18 \\ =68+18 \\ =86 \end{gathered}

Hence, the correct value of the expression is 86.
