Answer: 260
Step-by-step explanation: ok we know that there a 5 time increase (500 percent), meaning all we need to do is to divide this year number by 5 to find out last year number. 1300/5 is 260.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the simple interest formula= principal* interest rate*time
simple interest : 100000*%2*2 years
simple interest= 4000 dollars
compound quarterly : A=principal(1+r/4)^t
since it is quarterly and have 4 quarters in a year, and 8 in two years.
compound quarterly: 100000(1+0.03/4)^8=106159.88
it is better to invest with compound interest because it add 6159 dollars in two years to the investment of 100000 dollars.
the difference between the interest: 6159.88-4000=2159.88
Answer:
1) 5 2) 6 3) 1.25 or -1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
1. x^2 - 25 = 0
x^2 - 25 = 0
First, add 25 to both sides!
x^2 = 25
Now square root both sides.
x = 5
2. (x-2)^2 = 16
First, square root both sides.
(x-2) = 4
Add 2 on both sides.
(x) = 6
x = 6
3. Quadratic Formula = -b ±
/ 2a
Substitute in:
-6 ±
/ 2(2)
-6±
/ 4
Both forms:
-6 +
/ 4
5 / 4 = 1.25
Negative:
-6 - 1 / 4
-7 / 4 = -1.75
You find the x coordinates using x = -b/2a = -6/2(-1) = 3
Substitute 3 in the equation and find y
y = -(3^2) + 6(3) - 12 = -9 + 18 - 12 = -3

Answer: he purchased 16 ride tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of ride tickets that he purchased.
Let y represent the number of game tickets that he purchased.
Levi purchased a total of 50 ride tickets and game tickets at the amusement park. It means that
x + y = 50
If ride tickets cost $.75 each and game tickets cost $.50 each and the total amount spent on the tickets is $29, it means that
0.75x + 0.5y = 29- - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 50 - y into equation 1, it becomes
0.75(50 - y) + 0.5y = 29
37.5 - 0.75y + 0.5y = 29
- 0.75y + 0.5y = 29 - 37.5
- 0.25y = - 8.5
y = - 8.5/-0.25
y = 34
x = 50 - y = 50 - 34
x = 16
