In order to answer this question let's suppose,
Joe is x miles from the beginning and y miles from the end. These assumptions are necessary to answer further:
Now,
x=2y
x+y=30
plugging in x=2y in the above equation
2y+y=30
3y=30
y=10
Hence, according to our calculations, Joe has to hike 10 miles further
Answer:
The principal must be = $8991.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for compound interest is:

Where A is the amount after 't' years.
P is the principal amount
n is the number of times interest is compounded each year.
r is the rate of interest.
Here, we are given that:
Amount, A = $15000
Rate of interest = 13 % compounded quarterly i.e. 4 times every year
Number of times, interest is compounded each year, n = 4
Time, t = 4 years.
To find, Principal P = ?
Putting all the given values in the formula to find P.

So, <em>the principal must be = $8991.88</em>
Answer:
31:150
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all we convert the hours into minutes:
5×60=300
which gets us 42:300, which we can simplify to:
31:150
and is 31 is prime and 150 can't be divided into it without a remainder, it is in it's simplest form and it is the answer.
Answer:
x < -2; x > 5
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 7 < - 3 3x - 4 > 11
-7 -7 +4 +4
5x < - 10 3x > 15
/ 5 /5 /3 /3
x < -2 x > 5
We can write:
2.54x
Where 'x' is the number of inches.
Plug in 12 for 'x':
2.54(12)
30.48
So 12 inches is approximately 30.48 centimeters.
