Answer:

The money invested in the account 1 was $25,000 and in the account 2 was 5,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we can formulate a system of equations that could find the amount invested in each account, this is:

Money invested in the account 1 is A

Money invested in the account 2 is B

Eq. 1: A+B=30,000

Eq. 2: \frac{9}{100} *A+\frac{6}{100} *B=1,950

Replacing the equation 1 in 2, this is:

\frac{9}{100} *(30,000-B)+\frac{6}{100} *B=1,950Clearing the value of B:[tex]2,700-0.09B+0.06B=1,950

2,700-1,950=0.09B-0.06B

750=0.03B

B=\frac{750}{0.03}

B=25,000

Now, we can find A:

A=30,000-B\\A=30,000-25,000\\A=5,000

The money invested in the account 1 was $5,000 and in the account 2 was 25,000.

A pile of sand in the shape of a cone has a diameter of 8 in. and a height of 5 in.
max2010maxim [7]

if it has a diameter of 8, that means its radius is half that, or 4.


\bf \textit{volume of a cone}\\\\
V=\cfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}~~
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
h=height\\[-0.5em]
\hrulefill\\
r=4\\
h=5
\end{cases}\implies V=\cfrac{\pi (4)^2(5)}{3}\implies V=\cfrac{80\pi }{3}

Solve by substitution or elimination 5x+3y=-15 -8x-2y=10
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

x=0, y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The system is

(1)  5x+3y=-15  

(2) -8x-2y=10

Let's solve it by elimination.  In order to do it, you have to multiply the equations by suitable numbers in such a way that when you add the 2 equations, one of the unknowns is eliminated

Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 3

(1) 10x+6y=-30

(2) -24x-6y=30

Add the two equations

10x-24x+6y-6y=-30+30 ----> -14x=0---->x=0

Now replace this value in any equation, for example in (1)

6y=-30 ----> y=-30/6----> y=-5

Reagan and Nathan are 40 miles apart on a bike trail when they start pedaling toward each other on their b bicycles. Reagan ride
irinina [24]

Answer:

They meet in 2.22 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the time at which Reagan and Nathan meet by equaling the time as follows:

v_{R} = \frac{x_{R}}{t}  

x_{R} = v_{R}t    (1)      

v_{N} = \frac{x_{N}}{t}  

x_{N} = v_{N}t   (2)

Where R is for Reagan and N for Nathan.

Knowing that:

x_{R} + x_{N} = 40 mi

By adding equations (1) and (2) we have:

x_{R} + x_{N} = v_{R}t + v_{N}t

t = \frac{x_{R} + x_{N}}{|v_{R}| + |v_{N}|} = \frac{40 mi}{8 mi/h + 10 mi/h} = 2.22 h

Therefore, they meet in 2.22 hours.        

I hope it helps you!
