t = 6.25 years
(about 6 years 3 months)
Equation:
t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 4%/100 = 0.04 per year,
then, solving our equation
t = (1/0.04)((2500/2000) - 1) = 6.25
t = 6.25 years
The time required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $2,500.00 from simple interest on a principal of $2,000.00 at an interest rate of 4% per year is 6.25 years (about 6 years 3 months).
36:
The two distances are the same (out and back), so set them equal.
That is done by having a (rate)(time) equal a (rate)(time).
One time is “x” and the other is “4.8-x.”
One rate is 460 and the other is 500.
460 x = 500 (4.8 -x)
460 x = 2400 - 500x
900 x = 2400
x = 2.5 hours for the slower plane.
4.8- x = 2.3 hours for the faster plane.
Mmm... I think it is 5/8... I think.
Answer:
The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of both lengths and both widths, which is equal to 54 meters. Let's call Length L and Width W.
The question is saying this: L = 3 meters + 3(W). We have 2 variables, which means we need at least 2 equations to solve. So far we have one, our second equation is from the perimeter.
2 lengths + 2 Widths = 54. Now, it's just a plug and chug.
2(3 + 3W) + 2W = 54.
6 + 6W + 2W = 54
8W = 48
W=6
L = 3 + 3(6) = 21
To double check: 2(21) + 2(6) = 42 + 12 = 54
The Width is 6 meters, and the Length is 21 meters.
