No not always, because x could be a smaller number than y which would make it an negative. If x is bigger than y most likely it will be, but not always.

Fernando invested money in a 5-yr CD (certificate of deposit) that returned the equivalent of 3.3% simple interest. He invested
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Fernando invested $ 5000 on the 5-year CD and $ 4000 on the 18-month CD.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Fernando invested money in a 5-yr CD (certificate of deposit) that returned the equivalent of 3.3% simple interest, and the invested $ 1000 less in a 18-month CD that had a 2% simple interest return, if the total amount of interest from these investments was $ 945.00, to determine how much was invested in each CD the following calculation must be performed:

3.3 x 5 = 16.5

2 x 1.5 = 3

4000 x 0.165 + 3000 x 0.03 = 750

6000 x 0.165 + 5000 x 0.03 = 1140

5000 x 0.165 + 4000 x 0.03 = 945

Therefore, Fernando invested $ 5000 on the 5-year CD and $ 4000 on the 18-month CD.

How do I solve 1/10x+5=-3x-13+4x ?
Temka [501]

Answer:

x = 20

I am not sure if you wanted the answer. Sorry!

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

1/10 x + 5 = - 3x - 13 + 4x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/10 x + 5 = - 3x - 13 + 4x

1/10 x + 5 = - 3x + - 13 + 4x

1/10 x + 5 = (<em>- 3x + 4x</em>) + (- 13)

1/10 x + 5 = <em>x</em> + - 13

1/10 x + 5 = x - 13

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

1/10 x + 5 - <em>x </em>= x - 13 - <em>x</em>

- 9/10 x + 5 = - 13

Step 3: Subtract 5 from both sides

- 9/10 x + 5 - <em>5</em> = - 13 - <em>5</em>

- 9/10 x = - 18

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 10/(- 9).

(<em>10/ - 9</em>) * (- 9/10 x) = (<em>01/ - 9</em>) * (- 18)

x = 20

Hope this helps!

The problem tells you that a circle with radius 21 inches is painted in two colors. The two colors cover equal areas, so each color is half the area of the circle. You need to find half of the area of the circle. To do that, use the formula for the area of a circle, and then divide by 2.

A = \pi r^2

A = 3.14 \times 21~ inches \times 21~inches

A = 1384.74~square ~inches

Half the circle has area 1384.74 square inches / 2 = 692.37 square inches.

Answer: Each color covers 692.37 square inches.
