Answer:

$1500

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Investment 1 = $3000
  • Interest 1 = 4%
  • Investment 2 = x
  • Interest 2 = 5.5%
  • Total interest = 4.5%

<u>Total interest:</u>

  • 3000*0.04 + x*0.055 = (3000+ x)*0.045    ⇒ multiply by 100 both sides
  • 3000*4 + 5.5x = 3000*4.5 + 4.5x                ⇒ parenthesis
  • 5.5x - 4.5x = 3000(4.5-4)                             ⇒ collect like terms
  • x = 3000*0.5                                                ⇒ simplify
  • x = 1500                                                        ⇒ answer

Additional money is $1500

Find the substance's half-life, in days.<br> Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
shutvik [7]

Answer:

t = 5.6 day

t =5 days 14 hours 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Half life is the time it will take for the original value or quantity I'd a particular substance to decrease by half of it's original self.

N = N•e(-kt)

N• = 25

K = 0.1229

Then

N = 25/2 = 12.5

The reason because at the half life , it's original value will decrease to half.

Let's solve for the half life t

N = N•e(-kt)

12.5 = 25e(-0.1229t)

12.5/25 = e(-0.1229t)

0.5 = e(-0.1229t)

In 0.5 =-0.1229t

-0.69314 = -0.1229t

-0.69314/-0.1229 = t

5.6399 = t

To the nearest tenth

5.6 days = t
