Answer:
The number is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
[] First, let's turn all these words into something mathematical. N will equal "my number"
-><u> If you add 12 to my number</u> and then multiply the result by 3, you will get 64 more than two-thirds of my number.
-> n + 12 <u>and then multiply the result by 3</u>, you will get 64 more than two-thirds of my number.
-> 3(n + 12), you will get 64 more than <u>two-thirds of my number</u>.
-> 3(n + 12) = <u>64 more than</u> 
-> 3(n + 12) = 64 + 
[] Phew, okay. Now it is something we can solve and less scary;
[Given]
3(n + 12) = 64 + 
[Distribute]
3n + 36 = 64 + 
[Multiply both sides by 3]
9n + 108 = 192 + 2n
[Subtract 108 and 2n from both sides]
7n = 84
[Divide both sides by 4]
n = 12

Answer:
The interest rate is 7.58%
Step-by-step explanation:
Compound continuous interest can be calculated using the formula:
A = P
, where
- A is the future value of the investment, including interest
- P is the principal investment amount (the initial amount)
- r is the interest rate in decimal
- t is the time the money is invested for
∵ Angus has $3,000 he want to invest
∴ P = 3000
∵ The interest rate is compounded continuously
∵ Angus has $5,500 in 8 years
∴ A = 5500
∴ t = 8
→ Substitute them in the rule above to find r
∵ 5500 = 3000
→ Divide both sides by 3000
∴
= 
→ Insert ㏑ in both sides
∵ ㏑(
) = ㏑(
)
→ Remember ㏑(
) = n
∴ ㏑(
) = 8r
→ Divide both sides by 8
∴ 0.07576697545 = r
→ Multiply it by 100% to change it to a percentage
∴ r = 0.07576697545 × 100%
∴ r = 7.576697545 %
→ Round it to the nearest hundredth
∴ r ≅ 7.58
∴ The interest rate is 7.58%
Assume:
Size of sides = x m
Depth of the pool = y m
Therefore, surface area = x^2+4xy =10 m^2
Then, y = (10-x^2)/(4x)
Now,
Volume (V) = x^2*y = x^2*y =x^2(10-x^2)/4x = (10x-x^3)/4 = 1/4(10x-x^3)
For maximum volume, first derivative of volume function is equal to zero.
That is,
dV/dx =0 = 1/4(10-3x^2)
Then,
1/4(10-3x^2) = 0
10-3x^2 = 0
3x^2=10
x= sqrt (10/3) = 1.826 m
And
y= (10-1.826^2)/(4*1.826) = 0.913 m
Therefore,
V= 1.826^2*0.913 = 3.044 m^3
