Answer:
1300 and 700 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be invested in first account and y be invested in second account.
ATQ, x+y=2000 and 101=(4)*x/100+7*y/100. Solving it will give us x=1300 and y=700
Before you start working on this problem, make sure you know
how to use a couple of the tools in your toolbox:
Tool #1: 37-1/2 percent means 0.375
Tool #2: In math problems, "of" almost always means "times".
====================================
Your question says
"37-1/2 percent of blank is 36".
Translate it with your tools:
0.375 times blank = 36 .
Divide each side by 0.375: Blank = 36 / 0.375 .
Now grab your pencil or your calculator, and find the value of that
fraction (do the division). Blank is equal to the value of the fraction.
To check your answer (find out whether it's correct):
Do exactly what the question says.
Multiply (0.375) times (your answer). If you get 36,
then your answer is correct. If not, it's not.
Answer: the small bottle holds 15 ounces while the large bottle holds 23 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of ounces that a small bottle holds.
Let y represent the number of ounces that a large bottle holds.
He drank 2 small bottles and 2 large bottles, for a total of 76 ounces. It means that
2x + 2y = 76 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
The day before, he drank 4 small bottles and 1 large bottle, for a total of 83 ounces. This means that
4x + y = 83 - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes
4x + 4y = 152
4x + y = 83
Subtracting, it becomes
3y = 69
y = 69/3 = 23 ounces
Substituting y = 23 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + 2 × 23 = 76
2x + 46 = 76
2x = 76 - 46 = 30
x = 30/2 = 15 ounces
Answer:
x= 1 or x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x 2− 16 x + 14 =0
2 (x−1) (x−7)=0
x−1=0 or
x−7=0
x=1 or x=7
