Answer:

4⁄9

Step-by-step explanation:

As discussed in one of my videos on my channel [USERNAME: MATHEMATICS WIZARD], whenever you are dividing mixed numbers or fractions, you multiply the first term by the divisor's multiplicative inverse [reciprocal]. So you will end up with [⅔]², which is 4⁄9. You understand?

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

A credit card company charges 18.6% percent per year interest. Compute the effective annual rate if they compound, (a) annualy,

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

a) Effective annual rate: 18.6%

b) Effective annual rate: 20.27%

c) Effective annual rate: 20.43%

d) Effective annual rate: 20.44%

Step-by-step explanation:

The effective annual interest rate, if it is not compounded continuously, is given by the formula

$I=C(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}-C$

where

C = Amount of the credit granted

r = nominal interest per year

n = compounding frequency

t = the length of time the interest is applied. In this case, 1 year.

In the special case the interest rate is compounded continuously, the interest is given by

$I=Ce^{rt}-C$

(a) Annually

$I=C(1+\frac{0.186}{1})-C=C(1.186)-C=C(1.186-1)=C(0.186)$

The effective annual rate is 18.6%

(b) Monthly

There are 12 months in a year

$I=C(1+\frac{0.186}{12})^{12}-C=C(1.2027)-C=C(0.2027)$

The effective annual rate is 20.27%

(c) Daily

There are 365 days in a year

$I=C(1+\frac{0.186}{365})^{365}-C=C(1.2043)-C=C(0.2043)$

The effective annual rate is 20.43%

(d) Continuously

$I=Ce^{0.186}-C=C(1.2044)-C=C(0.2044)$

The effective annual rate is 20.44%

Please show your work and explain it.

Answer:

$f(x)=\dfrac{x+2}{2(x-2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember when you divide fractions, you need to get the reciprocal of the divisor and multiply. So your first simplification would be:

$\dfrac{x^2+4x+4}{x^2-6x+8}\div\dfrac{6x+12}{3x-12}\\\\=\dfrac{x^2+4x+4}{x^2-6x+8}\times\dfrac{3x-12}{6x+12}\\\\=\dfrac{(x^2+4x+4)(3x-12)}{(x^2-6x+8)(6x+12)}$

Next we factor what we can so we can further simplify the rest of the equation:

$=\dfrac{(x^2+4x+4)(3x-12)}{(x^2-6x+8)(6x+12)}\\\\=\dfrac{(x+2)(x+2)(3x-12)}{(x^2-6x+8)(6(x+2))}\\\\$

We can now cancel out (x+2)

$=\dfrac{(x+2)(3x-12)}{(x^2-6x+8)(6)}$

Next we factor out even more:

$=\dfrac{(x+2)(3)(x-4)}{(x-2)(x-4)(6)}$

We cancel out x-4 and reduce the 3 and 6 into simpler terms:

$=\dfrac{(x+2)(1)}{(x-2)(2)}$

And we can now simplify it to:

$=\dfrac{x+2}{2(x-2)}$

A train travels 80 miles per hour. If its speed remains the same, how far will the train have gone in 90 minutes?

Nataly_w [17]

Hello! So, the train travels 80 miles in an hour. 90 minutes is equivalent ot 1 ½ hours. In case you don't know, ½ of 80 is 40. To find the distance gone in 90 minutes, we can just add 80 and 40. 80 + 40 is 120. Another way to solve it is to multiply 80 by 1.5 and you would still get the same answer. There. The train will have gone 120 miles in 90 minutes.

Please help me! I will give Brainlylist

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

I would say that they are different because if x - a has a value to the equation then that means a - x will not have the same value because it may be rearranged to a different equation but that doesn't mean that they will have the same value. that explain why x - a and a - x are not the same
