Answer:

You should invest $820 in account A and $940 in account B

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets use the system of linear equations to solve the problem

- Simple Interest Equation I = Prt , Where:

# P = Invested Amount

# I = Interest Amount

# r = Rate of Interest per year in decimal; r = R/100

# t = Time Period involved in months or years

* Lets solve the problem

- The total money invested is $1760

- Account A pays 7​% annual interest

- Account B pays 4​% annual interest

- Let A represent the amount of money invested in the account A

- Let B represent the amount of money invested in the account B

- You would like to earn $ 95 at the end of one year

∴ The interest from both accounts at the end of one year is $95

- Lets write the equations

# Account A :

∵ Account A has $A invested

∴ P = $A

∵ Account A pays 7​% annual interest

∴ r = 7/100 = 0.07

∵ t = 1 year

∵ I = Prt

∴ I = A(0.07)(1) = 0.07A

# Account B :

∵ Account B has $B invested

∴ P = $B

∵ Account A pays 4​% annual interest

∴ r = 4/100 = 0.04

∵ t = 1 year

∵ I = Prt

∴ I = B(0.04)(1) = 0.04B

- The total amount of interest from both accounts at the end of one

  year is $95

∴ I from A + I from B = 95

∴ 0.07A + 0.04B = 95 ⇒ multiply both sides by 100

∴ 7A + 4B = 9500 ⇒ (1)

- The total money to invest in both accounts is $1760

∵ Account A has $A invested

∵ Account B has $B invested

∴ A + B = 1760 ⇒ (2)

* Lets solve the system of equations to find the amount of money

  invested in each account

- Multiply equation (2) by -4 to eliminate B

∵ A + B = 1760 ⇒ × -4

∴ -4A - 4B = -7040 ⇒ (3)

- Add equation (1) and (3)

∵ 7A + 4B = 9500 ⇒ (1)

∵ -4A - 4B = -7040 ⇒ (3)

∴ 7A - 4A = 9500 - 7040

∴ 3A = 2460 ⇒ divide both side by 3

∴ A = 820

- Substitute the value of A in equation (1) or (2)

∵ A + B = 1760 ⇒ (2)

∴ 820 + B = 1760 ⇒ subtract 820 from both sides

∴ B = 940

- From all above

* You should invest $820 in account A and $940 in account B

What value of b makes the trinomial below a perfect square x^2-bx+100
Aloiza [94]
1. Perfect square trinomials, are 2nd degree polynomials, of the form          a x^{2} +bx+c so that a \neq 0, b \neq 0, c \neq 0, which can be written as perfect squares.

2. For example (x+1) ^{2} = x^{2} +2x+1
 
(3x-1)^{2}= (3x)^{2}-2(3x)+(-1) ^{2}= 9x^{2}-6x+1    


3. Thus x^{2} +2x+1, 9x^{2}-6x+1 are perfect square trinomials.

4. x^{2} -bx+100= x^{2} -bx+ 10^{2}= (x+10)^{2}   or  (x-10)^{2}

5. In the first case -b=20, so b=-20. In the second case, -b=-20, so b=20.

6. b∈{-20, 20}

Ayesha works as a real estate agent. Her annual gross salary is $28,000. From this, she must pay 20% income tax on anything earn
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Annual gross salary = $28000

Income tax = 20% on anything above $15000

So she's taxable for $5000

Rent loan = $140 per month = $140 * 12= $1680 per annum

Tax deductible per annum = 20% of $5000

20 / 100 * $5000 = $1000

Total amount she takes home per annum =

Gross salary per annum - tax - loan =

($28000 - $1000 - $1680) = $25,320

Ayesha takes home $25,320 home annually.

PLEASE HELP
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

I think it would be 34 because I divided 68.2 by 4 and got 17.05, so I multiplied that by 2, and it's closest to 34.

<em>So I think it's A.</em>

But y'all don't be mad if I'm wrong cuz I said I think.
