Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio = 7 : 3 : 2 = 7x : 3x : 2x ( x is a multiplier ), then

7x = 2x + 75 ( Natasha gets 75 more sweets than Henry )

Subtract 2x from both sides

5x = 75 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 15

Thus

total number of sweets = 7x + 3x + 2x = 12x = 12 × 15 = 180

Can somebody help me with this question
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
What you need to do is find the greatest amount (1) and the lowest amount (1/4) of sap collected and the find how many times the lowest can go into the greatest. (So how many times can 1/4 go into 1). I believe that this is how you would do that.

Help plzzz thank you !

Answer:

a. Ameribank-$15,157.50

b. Capital Two-$4,646.25

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Tad's savings is $15,000, we calculate his total amount at the end of the year for each bank:

#Ameribank

A=P+I=P+PRT\\\\=15000+15000\times 0.0105\times 1\\\\=\$15,157.50

#Huffington( we use the effective rate to calculate the compound amount):

i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.0095/12)^[12}-1=0.009541\\\\A=P(1+i_m)^n\\\\=15000(1.009541)^1\\\\=\$15,143.12

#Sixth-Third, Take 1 yrs=52 weeks:

i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.01/52)^{52}-1=0.01005\\\\A=15000(1.01005)^1\\\\=\$15,150.74

#Hence, Ameribank is the best option as his money grows to $15,157.50 which is greater than all the remaining two options.

b. We use the compound interest formula A=P(1+r/n)^{nt} to determine which bank gives the best option:

#Capital Two. r=3.75%, n=12,t=4

A=P(1+r/n)^{nt}\\\\=4000(1+0.0375/12)^{12\times4}\\\\=\$4,646.25

#J.C Morgan, t=2, r=3.55% n=12

A=P(1+r/n)^{nt}\\\\=4000(1+0.0355/12)^{12\times 2}\\\\=\$4,293.87

#Silverman Slacks, n=12,t=3, r=3.65%

A=P(1+r/n)^{nt}\\\\=4000(1+0.0365/12)^{12\times3}\\\\=\$4,462.14

We compare the investment amounts after t years:

Capital>Silver>Morgan=4646.25>4462.14>4293.87

Hence, Capital two is the best option with an investment amount of $4,646.25

5 2/5 as a mixed number
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Mixed numbers have a whole number followed by the fraction (2 1/2). You would say "two and one half." The other format is an improper fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator (5/2). Mathematicians would say that is five halves.
