We name her balance B so we have

B x1.7%=20.40
B x 1.7/100=20.40
B x 1.7=20.40 x 100
B x 1.7=2040
B=2040/1.7
B=1200

Maybe we could substract the amount that she paid for the interest so her balance may be 1200-20.40=1179.60 instead of 1200

Paul went on a bike ride of 30 miles. He realized that if he had gone 8 mph faster, he would have arrived 12 hours sooner. How f
lara [203]

Answer: He actually rode 2 miles per hour on his trip

Step-by-step explanation: Maybe unconventional, but express the time it took, then figure the speed.

Time  = distance /speed  t will represent time, s is the speed:  t = 30/s Use the rime it would have taken at the higher speed to create an equation:

t-12 = 30/s+8   replace the y with the 30/s

30/s -12 = 30/s+8

(s)(30/s -12 ) = (s)(30/s+8 )  Cross multiply to cancel denominators  

(s-8)(30 -12s) = (s-8)(30s/s+8 ) ==> 30s +240 -12s² -96s =30s   Simplify:  

(-1)(-12s² -96s +240 ) =0 ==>  12s² +96s -240  divide all by 12

s² + 8s -20 = 0   Factor and solve for s

(s +10)(s -2) =0    s-2=0   S= 2  

Proof:

30/2 = 15 hours for original trip at 2mph,  

increase speed by 8mph   2 + 8 = 10mph

30 miles at 10mph takes 3 hours; that is 12 hours less than his actual trip.

Cari owns a horse farm and a horse trailer that can transport up to 8,000 pounds of livestock and tack. She travels with 5 horse
const2013 [10]

Answer:

5(1248 lb/horse + t lb) ≤ 8000 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to do this is to find the average weight of the 5 horses:

It is:

6,240 lb

---------------- = 1248 lb/horse

  5 horses

and to this, for each horse, we must add t lbs tack.

Thus, 5(1248 lb/horse + t lb) ≤ 8000 lb

would be an appropriate inequality.

Please note that your question mentions "the following inequalities;" that means you are expected to share them!  Please do so next time.  Thanks.

Jill has a photograph that is 4 inches wide by 6 inches high. If she enlarges it so that the width is 12
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The inches in height will be 18 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so we know that the original width is 4 inches and she enlarged that to 12 inches

So what we first have to do is find out how much did the photograph "grow" per se. To find this we have to divide 12 by 4. 12 divided by 4 = 3.

So, the width of the photograph grew "times 3" inches

Now whatever you do to the width you have to do to the height. In this case, what is "3 times" 6 (which is the height). 3 times 6 = 18 inches

So in simpler words 12 divided 4 = 3 x 6 = 18 inches

The inches in height will be 18 inches.

Jill has a square with a width of 12 inches, and a height of 18 inches.

Have a wonderful day!

Write the equation of a line in - form that contains the point (- 1, - 2) and is perpendicular to the line y = 5x - 10 degrees
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

y+2= -1/5(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

if lines are perpendicular their slopes are negative reciprocal

y=mx+b where m is the slope

y=5x-10 has the slope 5 so a perpendicular line will have slope -1/5

equation point slope form

(y-y1) = m(x-x1) where m is slope, and (x1,y1) any point that belongs to the line

y+2= -1/5(x+1)
