Principle = interest divided by rate x years

So

P= 3000 divided by 0.12 x 3

P= 8333.33

P= 8333

3x + y = 19 , and x + 3y = 1. Find the value of 2x + 2y

soldi70 [24.7K]

$3x+y=19 \\
x+3y=1 \\ \\
\hbox{add the sides of the equations:} \\
3x+x+y+3y=19+1 \\
4x+4y=20 \\ \\ \hbox{divide both sides by 2:} \\
2x+2y=10$

The answer is d. 10.

Pineapples cost $2.50 each and mangos cost $1.50 each. Tim purchased 15 pieces of fruit for $29.50. How many pineapples and how

kotykmax [81]

We can create equations to solve this.

2.50p + 1.50m = 29.50
p + m = 15

Solve for a variable in the 2nd equation and use the substitution method to solve.

p + m = 15

Subtract p to both sides:

m = -p + 15

Plug in -p + 15 for m in the first equation.

2.50p + 1.50(-p + 15) = 29.50

Distribute:

2.50p - 1.50p + 22.50 = 29.50

Combine like terms:

p + 22.50 = 29.50

Subtract 22.50 to both sides:

p = 7

Now plug this into any of the two equations and solve for the other variable.

p + m = 15

7 + m = 15

Subtract 7 to both sides:

m = 8

So he purchased 7 pineapples and 8 mangos.

The decreasing population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p=−0.

n200080 [17]

By solving a quadratic equation, it can be verified that

The owl population will disappear after 329.12 years

What is a quadratic equation?

At first it is important to know about equation

Equation shows the equality between two algebraic expressions by connecting the two algebraic expressions by an equal to sign.

A two degree equation is known as quadratic equation.

Here, a quadratic equation needs to be solved

The decreasing population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p= $-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200$

For population to disappear, p =0

$-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200 = 0\\0.4t^2 -128t - 1200 = 0\\4t^2 - 1280t - 12000 = 0\\4(t^2 - 320 t - 3000) = 0\\t^2 - 320t -3000 = 0\\t = \frac{-(-320)\pm \sqrt{(-320)^2 - 4 \times 1 \times (-3000)}}{2 \times 1}\\t = \frac{320 \pm 338.23}{2}\\t = \frac{320 + 338.23}{2} \ or \ t = \frac{320 - 338.23}{2}\\t = 329.115 \ or \ t = -9.115$

But t = -9.115 is not possible as time cannot be negative

So, the owl population will disappear after 329.12 years

Heidi has 6 pounds of tomatoes from her garden. She used 3/4 of all the tomatoes to make sauce and gave 2/3 of the rest of the t

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor

Step-by-step explanation:

How much did you use to make sauce

6 * 3/4 = 18/4 =9/2 = 4.5 lbs

That leaves 6-4.5 = 1.5 lbs

She give 2/3 of this to her neighbor

1.5 * 2/3

Changing the decimal to a fraction

3/2 * 2/3 = 1

She gives 1 pound to her neighbor, but we want it in ounces

16 ounces equals 1 pound

She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor
