He payed 0.72
First you take 2.88, then you multiply it by 1/4 or a simpler way would be to divide 2.88 by 4. The answer is $0.72

How to find the number of sides of a polygon when given the interior angle sum

wariber [46]

Given:

Sum of interior angle

To find:

Number of sides of a polygon

Solution:

Using sum of interior angles formula:

$$S=(n-2) \times 180^{\circ}$

where "S" is the sum of interior angels and "n" is the number of sides of a polygon.

Divide by 180° on both sides.

$$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}=\frac{(n-2) \times 180^{\circ}}{180^{\circ}}$

Cancel common factor 180°.

$$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}=n-2$

Add 2 on both sides.

$$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}+2=n-2+2$

$$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}+2=n$

Switch the sides.

$$n=\frac{sum}{180^{\circ}}+2$

Therefore number of sides of a polygon is $n=\frac{sum}{180^{\circ}}+2$ .

Jose invests $10900 in two different accounts. The first account paid 8 %, the second account paid 11 % in interest. At the end

navik [9.2K]

Answer: $4900 at 8%

$6000 at 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 8% interest.

Let y represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 11% interest.

Jose invests $10900 in two different accounts. The first account paid 8 %, the second account paid 11 % in interest. This means that

x + y = 10900

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Considering the account paying 8% interest,

P = $x

T = 1 year

R = 8℅

I = (x × 12 × 1)/100 = 0.08x

Considering the account paying 11% interest,

P = $y

T = 1 year

R = 11℅

I = (y × 6 × 1)/100 = 0.11y

At the end of the first year he had earned $1052 in interest., it means that

0.08x + 0.11y = 1052 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 10900 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.08(10900 - y) + 0.11y = 1052

872 - 0.08y + 0.11y = 1052

- 0.08y + 0.11y = 1052 - 872

0.03y = 180

y = 180/0.03

y = 6000

x = 10900 - y = 10900 - 6000

x = 4900
