The answer is 1690. First find the amount of interest by a single investment by multiplying the investment amount by the percent interest in decimal form. Then calculate the total by adding up all the products of investment times interest. Matrices will allow to multiply two things together and add the products up all at the same time. So we need to find the investment matrix and interest matrix.

Investment matrix A (transposed)            = (a1 a2 a3) = (13,000 12,000 4,000)

Interest Matrix B                                       = (b1 b2 b3) = (0.05 0.06 0.08)

Amount of interest earned                        = a1b1 + a2b2 + a3b3

Amount of interest earned                        = (0.05) (13,000) + (0.06) (12,000) +                                                                                  (0.08)(4,000)

Amount of interest earned                        = 1690

Find the value of the combination. From a committee consisting of 8 men and 5 women, a subcommittee is formed consisting of 4 me
Alex787 [66]

Out of 8 men, 4 can be selected and lined up in (8 x 7 x 6 x 5) = 1,680 ways.
But within that number, each group of 4 appears in (4 x 3 x 2) = 24 orders.
So there are (1,680 / 24) = 70 different groups of men.

Out of 5 women, 3 can be selected and lined up in (5 x 4 x 3) = 60 ways.
But within that number, each group of 3 appears in (3 x 2) = 6 orders.
So there are (60 / 6) = 10 different groups of women.

Each different group of 70 men can be joined by any of the 10 groups
of women. So the total number of possible subcommittees is (70 x 10) = 700 .

An oil tank in the shape of a cylinder has a diameter of 40 feet and a height of 32 feet. Which expression can be used to find t
Volgvan

The volume of a cylinder is pi*r^2*h

The radius is half the diameter, so 40/2=20, and the radius is 20 ft.

Plugging in: pi*20^2*32=pi*400*32=12800pi=40212.38597

So the volume is about 40212.4 ft^3 and the expression we used is pi*20^2*32

Hope this helped!

konstantin123 [22]
Hello Melissamv9321, <span>find the lengths of the missing sides if side a is opposite angle a, side b is opposite angle b, and side c is the hypotenuse</span> <span>In this right triangle, you are given the measurements for the hypotenuse, c, and one leg, b. The hypotenuse is always opposite the right angle and it is always the longest side of the triangle. To find the length of leg a, substitute the known values into the Pythagorean Theorem. Solve for a2.</span>
