Super legend this is still a hard question but im trying to get rid of my points i like to stay at the bottom of the point list,

is this one ok. I did have this as a question on a quiz before.
Three men go to stay at a motel, and the man at the desk charges them $30.00 for a room. They split the cost ten dollars each. Later the manager tells the desk man that he overcharged the men, that the actual cost should have been $25.00. The manager gives the bellboy $5 and tells him to give it to the men.

The bellboy, however, decides to cheat the men and pockets $2.00, giving each of the men only one dollar.

Now each man has paid $9.00 to stay in the room and 3 x $9.00 = $27.00. The bellboy has pocketed $2.00. $27.00 + $2.00 = $29.00 - so where is the missing $1.00?

$3 went to the men and and $2 to the bellboy. That's $5 in total, which is what the bellboy was supposed to give the men. So the $1 is with one of the men.

What is the value of the expression?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

- \frac{9}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add the numerator fractions.

2/5 + 3/10

Here we have to find LCD, the LCD of 5 and 10 is 10

                                         (2*2) + 3         4 + 3

Therefore,  2/5 + 3/10 = ---------------  = ------------------

                                          10                     10

= 7/10

Step 2: Now substitute 2/5 + 3/10 = 7/10 in the given fraction, we get


 7/10

=  ----------

     -7/9

If we have fraction over fraction, we have to find the reciprocal of denominator fraction and multiply.

The reciprocal of -7/9 is -9/7

Step 3: Now multiply 13/10 and -9/7

= (7/10) x (-9/7)

= -9/10

=-9/10

The answer is  -\frac{9}{10}

The distance y in miles traveled by a striped marlin in x hours is shown in the graph. Each ocean creature’s distance in miles i
julsineya [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  swordfish

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows the marlin travels 50 miles in 1 hour, and 150 miles in 3 hours. These numbers can be compared directly to those given for the tuna (43.5 miles in 1 hour) and the wahoo fish (144 miles in 3 hours).

The speeds of the swordfish and shark are the coefficients of x in their respective equations. The swordfish travels 60 mph, so is faster than the marlin. The shark travels 31 mph, so is slower.

Jeanne Crawford had $9,675.95 deposited in an account paying
Anni [7]

Answer:

a. $10,943.30

b. $1,267.35

Step-by-step explanation:

P = $9,675.95

r = 6.25% = 0.0625

t = Compounded Semiannually = 2

a. Amount after 2 Years

n = 2

A = P [1 + (r / n)]^nt

A = $9,675.95 [1 + (0.0625 / 2)]² ˣ ²

A = $9,675.95 [1 + 0.03125]⁴

A = $9,675.95 [1.03125]⁴

A = $9,675.95 x 1.130982

A = $10,943.30

b. Compound Interest

Compound Interest = Final Amount - Principal Amount

Compound Interest = $10,943.30 - $9,675.95

Compound Interest = $1,267.35
