Answer:

  a)  |n -11| = 5

  b)  n ∈ {6, 16}

Step-by-step explanation:

The wording of the question is ridiculous. We assume it is intended to read, "The distance between two numbers is 5. One of the numbers is 11. What are the possibilities for the other?"

a) The distance between a number (n) and 11 can be written as ...

  |n -11|

Since we want that distance to be 5, we can write the equation ...

  |n -11| = 5

__

b) The equation resolves to two:

  • n -11 = 5
  • n -11 = -5

Adding 11 to both sides of both equations gives ...

  • n = 16
  • n = 6

The two solutions are n=6 and n=16.

<em>Comment on the question statement</em>

Increasingly, we see curriculum materials written in Pidgin English or where the words have a meaning different from that understood by a native English speaker. It appears you are the lucky recipient of such materials, so must do occasional "interpretation". Here, it seems that "two time a number" is intended to mean "two numbers."

Viktor [21]

Answer:

a. 144 ft

b. 5 s

Step-by-step explanation:

h = -16t² + 64t + 80

a. This is a parabola, so the maximum height is at the vertex.

t = -64 / (2 × -16)

t = 2

h = -16(2)² + 64(2) + 80

h = 144

The apple reaches a maximum height of 144 ft.

b. 0 = -16t² + 64t + 80

0 = t² − 4t − 5

0 = (t + 1) (t − 5)

t = -1 or 5

t must be positive, so it takes 5 seconds to reach the ground.

The Simple interest after three month $423.70

What is Simple Interest ?

Simple interest is a quick and simple formula for figuring out how much interest will be charged on a loan. The daily interest rate, the principle, and the number of days between payments are multiplied to calculate simple interest.

If she deposits $366 in the account and you receive interest, you must first calculate the interest for the current year before adding the sum to calculate the interest for the following month.

for instance, deposit plus interest equals the new amount for month one, month one amount plus interest equals amount for month two, and month two amount plus interest equals amount for month three.

The total would thus be $423.70 for the following month:

month 1

366+ (366*.05)=x

366+18.3=x

month 2

384.30+(384.30*.05)=x

384.30+19.22=x

month 3

403.52+(403.52*.05)=x

403.52+20.18=x

423.7 = x

Thus, total amount then would be $423.70
