Answer:

$ 22.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

P = amount to save per week

B = expected accurate at 16 years = $5000

r = APR = 3.9% = 0.039

n = numbers of week in a year = 52weeks

t = 16 - 12 = 4 years terms of savings.

Using,

P = (B * r/n)/{(1 + (r/n))^(nt) -1}

P = (5000 * 0.039/52)/{(1 + (0.039/52))^(52 * 4) -1}

P = $22.22

Can anyone plzzzz help me with this question of linear equation in two varaiable plzzzzzz... Its very important... Plz solve it

kotegsom [21]

That's not a linear system, but you have an awesome school system for giving you this problem.

$\dfrac 5 y - \dfrac 2 x = \dfrac{13}6$

Multiply by 6xy to clear the fractions.

$30x - 12y = 13 xy$

That's a second degree equation, also known as a conic. That one happens to be a hyperbola.

$30x = y(13 x +12)$

$y = \dfrac{30x}{13 x + 12}$

Let's clear the fractions from the second equation, multiplying out common denominator xy:

$\dfrac {36} x - \dfrac {24} y = 1$

$36y - 24 x = xy$

We are being asked to find the meet of two hyperbolas, so we expect two answers, a quadratic equation.

Substituting,

$36 \left( \dfrac{30x}{13 x + 12} \right) - 24 x = x \left( \dfrac{30x}{13 x + 12} \right)$

$36(30x) -24 x(13x + 12) = 30x^2$

$1080 x - 312 x^2- 288 x = 30x^2$

$x(792 - 342 x)= 0$

$x = 0 \textrm{ or } x=792/342 = \dfrac{44}{19}$

We have to rule out x=0 because it's in the denominator.

$y = \dfrac{30x}{13 x + 12} = \dfrac{30(44/19)}{13(44/19)+12}$

$y = \dfrac{33}{20}$

Answer: (44/19, 33/20)

3y=24 solve by inspection

Ulleksa [173]

Explanation: Division property of equality is dividing both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number does not change the equation.

a÷c=b÷c for c≠0

First, you divide by 3 both sides of an equation.

3y/3=24/3

Then, simplify.

24/3=8

8*3=24

24/8=3

y=8 is the final answer.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

How many words of five letters can be created that start with the letter T, contain 2 other consonats and end with 2 vowels? Not

Jet001 [13]

If we're only counting 5 vowels (A, E, I, O, U) and 20 consonants (everything else, minus T), then there are

$\dbinom52=\dfrac{5!}{2!(5-2)!}=10$

ways of picking the vowels, and

$\dbinom{20}2=\dfrac{20!}{2!(20-2)!}=190$

ways of picking the consonants.

We want the word to start with T, and we'll allow any arrangement of the other 4 letters, so that the total number of words is

$4!\dbinom52\dbinom{20}2=\boxed{45,600}$

Keep in mind that this means words like TRIES and TIRES are treated as different.
