Answer:

x = 4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>(5 +X</u><u> )/3</u> = 2 - <u> X/4</u>

<h3> <u>(5 +X</u><u> )/3</u> = 8 - X </h3><h3>5+ X = 3 (8 - X) </h3><h3> 5+ X = 24 - 3X transposing terms</h3><h3>X+ 3X= 24 -5</h3><h3> 4X = 19</h3><h3> X = 19/4 </h3><h3>X = 4.75</h3>

The graph of y > 1 2 x - 2 is shown. Which set contains only points that satisfy the inequality? A) {(6, 1), (-1, -3), (4, 4)

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Option B) {(1, -1), (-3, -3), (2, 4)}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct inequality is </em></u>

$y>\frac{1}{2}x-2$

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the dashed line $y=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If a ordered pair satisfy the inequality, then the ordered pair must lie in the shaded area of the solution

<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>

case A) {(6, 1), (-1, -3), (4, 4)}

ordered pair (6,1)

For x=6, y=1

substitute in the inequality

$1>\frac{1}{2}(6)-2$

$1>1$ ---> is not true

therefore

The point not satisfy the inequality

case B) {(1, -1), (-3, -3), (2, 4)}

ordered pair (1,-1)

For x=1, y=-1

substitute in the inequality

$-1>\frac{1}{2}(1)-2$

$-1>-1.5$ ---> is true

so

The point satisfy the inequality

ordered pair (-3,3)

For x=-3, y=3

substitute in the inequality

$3>\frac{1}{2}(-3)-2$

$3>-3.5$ ---> is true

so

The point satisfy the inequality

ordered pair (2,4)

For x=2, y=4

substitute in the inequality

$4>\frac{1}{2}(2)-2$

$4>-1$ ---> is true

so

The point satisfy the inequality

therefore

The set contains only points that satisfy the inequality

case C) {(1, -1), (-3, -3), (4, -2)}

ordered pair (4,-2)

For x=4, y=-2

substitute in the inequality

$-2>\frac{1}{2}(4)-2$

$-2>0$ ---> is not true

therefore

The point not satisfy the inequality

case D) {(-1, -3), (-3, -3), (2, 4)}

ordered pair (-1,-3)

For x=-1, y=-3

substitute in the inequality

$-3>\frac{1}{2}(-1)-2$

$-3>-2.5$ ---> is not true

therefore

The point not satisfy the inequality

What sum will amount to rupees 4000 in 3 years at 6% p.a. compound interest

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

$\begin{gathered}{\Large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{\color{purple}{Given:}}}}}}}\end{gathered}$

⇢ Principle = Rs.4000
⇢ Rate = 6%
⇢ Time = 3 year

$\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered}{\Large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{\color{purple}{Solution:}}}}}}}\end{gathered}$

${\bigstar \:{\underline{\pmb{\frak{\red{Firstly,Finding \: the \: Amount }}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{P{\bigg(1 + \dfrac{R}{100}{\bigg)}^{T}}}}}}$

Substituting the values

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg(1 + \dfrac{6}{100}{\bigg)}^{3}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg(1 \times 100 + \dfrac{6}{100}{\bigg)}^{3}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg( \dfrac{100 + 6}{100}{\bigg)}^{3}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg( \dfrac{106}{100}{\bigg)}^{3}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg({\cancel{\dfrac{106}{100}}{\bigg)}}^{3}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg( \dfrac{53}{50}{\bigg)}^{3}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg( \dfrac{53}{50} \times \dfrac{53}{50} \times \dfrac{53}{50}{\bigg)}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000{\bigg( \dfrac{148877}{125000}{\bigg)}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4000 \times \dfrac{148877}{125000}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4{\cancel{000}} \times \dfrac{148877}{125{\cancel{000}}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{\dfrac{148877 \times 4}{125}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{\dfrac{595508}{125}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{\cancel{\dfrac{595508}{125}}}}}}$

$\quad {:\implies{\sf{Amount = \bf{4764.064}}}}$

$\begin{gathered} \dag{\boxed{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\color{green}{Amount = {Rs.4764.064}}}}}}}\end{gathered}$

Hence, The Amount is Rs.4764.064

$\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}$

${\bigstar \:{\underline{\pmb{\frak{\red{ Now,Finding \: The \: Compound \: Interest }}}}}}$

$\quad{: \implies{\sf{Compound \: Interest = \bf{Amount- Principle }}}}$

Substituting the values

$\quad{: \implies{\sf{Compound \: Interest = \bf{4764.064- 4000 }}}}$

$\quad{: \implies{\sf{Compound \: Interest =\bf{764.064}}}}$

$\begin{gathered} \dag{\boxed{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\color{green}{Compound Interest = Rs.764.064}}}}}}\end{gathered}$

Henceforth,The Compound Interest is Rs.764064

Find the product. x3(x2+5x+1)

Stella [2.4K]

Answer: x^5+5x^4+x^3

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming the expression is x^3(x^2+5x+1) each term in the bracket is multiplied by x^3

x^3(x^2+5x+1)

=(x^3*x^2)+(x^3*5x)+(x^3*1)

=x5+5x^4+x^3
