Assuming simple interest (i.e. no compounding within first year), then
At 6%, interest = 10000*0.06=$600
At 9% interest = 10000*0.09 = $900

Two ways to find the ratio
method A. let x=proportion at 6%
then
600x+900(1-x)=684
Expand and solve
300x=900-684=216
x=216/300=0.72 or 72%
So 10000*0.72=7200 were invested at 6%
10000-7200=2800 were invested at 9%

method B: by proportions
Ratio of investments at 6% and 9%
= 900-684 : 684-600
=216 : 84
= 18 : 7
Amount invested at 6% = 18/(18+7) * 10000 = 0.72*10000 = 7200
Amount invested at 8% = 7/(18+7)*10000=0.28*10000=2800

Last summer, Betty earned $4200 by painting houses. She invested
Musya8 [376]

x*(1.035) + (4,200-x)*(1.045) = 4,374.00

1.035x + 4,389.00 -1.045x = 4,374.00

15.00  = .01x

x = 1,500  so x (1,500) invested at 3.5% and  

(4,200 - 1,500) (or 2,700) invested at 4.5%

Mrs. Clark has a glass vase with a base shaped like a hexagon, as shown. The vase is 30 cm tall and the hexagon base has an area
Lisa [10]

Answer: The correct option is fourth, i.e., 1935 cm³.

Explanation:

It is given that the vase is 30 cm tall and the hexagon base has an area of 64.5 cm².

The area of a hexagon base is,

A=\frac{3\sqrt{3}} {2}a^2

Where, a is the side length.

The volume of the a hexagon glass is,

V=\frac{3\sqrt{3}} {2}a^2\times h

V=A\times h

Where, A is area of base of hexagon and h is height of the hexagon glass.

V=64.5\times 30

V=1935

Therefore the volume of the glass is 1935 cm³ and the glass can hold 1935 cm³ water. So, fourth option is correct.
