Answer:

$1,043.81

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{4}$ ×1,491=372.75

$\frac{1}{20}$ ×1,491=74.55

74.55+372.75=447.19

1,491-447.19= $1,043.81

Answer:

$1043.7

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Amount remaining </h2>

Edward earns $1,491 and spends 1/4 and 1/20 of his salary on rent and water bills.

we can use this to find the remaining amount

1,491 * $\frac{1}{4}$ = 372.75

1,491 * $\frac{1}{20}$ = 74.55

<em><u>add these two amounts , to find the total money spent from his salary.</u></em>

372.75 + 74.55 = 447.3

<em><u>subtract this amount from the money earned to find the money remaining.</u></em>

1,491 - 447.3 = 1043.7

<h3><u>the amount remaining is : $ 1043.7</u></h3>

If y=e5t is a solution to the differential equation

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

k = 30, $y(t) = C_1e^{5t}+C_2e^{6t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $y=e^{5t}$ is a solution, then it must satisfy the differential equation. So, we calculate the derivatives and replace the value in the equation. We have that

$\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = 25 e^{5t},\frac{dy}{dt} = 5e^{5t}$

Then, replacing the derivatives in the equation we have:

$25e^{5t}-11(5)e^{5t}+ke^{5t}=0 e^{5t}(25-55+k) =0$

Since $e^{5t}$ is a positive function, we have that

$25-55+k = 0 \rightarrow k = 30$ .

Now, consider a general solution $y(t) = Ae^{rt}, A \in \mathbb{R}$ , then, by calculating the derivatives and replacing them in the equation, we get

$Ae^{rt}(r^2-11r+30)=0$

We already know that r=5 is a solution of the equation, then we can divide the polynomial by the factor (r-5) to the get the other solution. If we do so, we get that (r-6)=0. So the other solution is r=6.

Therefore, the general solution is

$y(t) = C_1e^{5t}+C_2e^{6t}$

The length of each side of a regular pentagon is increased by 8 inches, so the perimeter is now 65 inches. What is the original

evablogger [386]

<em>Here</em> as the <em>Pentagon</em> is <em>regular</em> so it's <em>all sides</em> will be of <em>equal length</em> . And if we assume It's each side be<em> </em><em><u>s</u></em> , then it's perimeter is going to be <em>(s+s+s+s+s) = </em><em><u>5s</u></em>.And as here , each <em>side</em> is increased by <em>8 inches</em> and then it's perimeter is <em>65 inches</em> , so we got that it's side after increament is<em> (s+8) inches</em> and original length is <em>s inches </em>. And if it's each side is <em>(s+8) inches</em> , so it's perimeter will be <em>5(s+8)</em> and as it's equal to <em>65 inches</em> . So , <em><u>5(s+8) = 65</u></em>

${:\implies \quad \sf 5(s+8)=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s+5\times 8=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s+40=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s=65-40}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s=25}$

${:\implies \quad \sf s=\dfrac{25}{5}=5}$

${:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{s=5\:\: Inches}}}$

As we assumed the original side to be <em><u>s</u></em> .

<em>Hence, the original side's length 5 inches </em>

A) If the 5th term of an A.P. is double the 7th term, show that the sum of the 17 terms zero.

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an AP is

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₅ is double a₇ , then

a₁ + 4d = 2(a₁ + 6d) , that is

a₁ + 4d = 2a₁ + 12d ( subtract a₁ from both sides )

4d = a₁ + 12d ( subtract 12d from both sides )

- 8d = a₁

The sum of n terms of an AP is

$S_{n}$ = $\frac{n}{2}$ [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ] , substitute values

$S_{17}$ = $\frac{17}{2}$ ( 2(- 8d) + 16d)

= 8.5(- 16d + 16d)

= 8.5 × 0

= 0
