Answer:

8%: $1554

21%: $2446

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E are the earnings, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

After t years, the total amount of money is:

T = E + P.

In this question:

Two earnings, that i am going to call A(8% per year) and B(21% per year).

Two principals, for A i am going to call P and for B it is the rest, so 4000 - P.

A:

One year, so t = 1

8% interest, so r = 0.08

Earnings A.

A = P*I*t

A = 0.08P

B:

21% interest, so r = 0.21

Principal (4000 - P).

B = P*I*t

B = 0.21*(4000 - P)

You'd like to earn exactly $638 in interest each year.

This means that A + B = 638

Then

B = 638 - A

Now we have to solve the following system:

A = 0.08P

638 - A = 0.21*(4000 - P)

So, on the second equation:

A = 638 - 0.21*(4000 - P)

Replacing on the first:

A = 0.08P

638 - 0.21*(4000 - P) = 0.08P

638 - 840 + 0.21P = 0.08P

0.21P - 0.08P = 840 - 638

0.13P = 202

P = \frac{202}{0.13}

P = 1553.8

Rounding up to the nearest integer

P = 1554.

So on A, the 8% interest, you invest $1554.

On B, the 21% interest, you invest 4000 - 1554 = $2446.

Answer:

If you roll two dices, you can get as results all numbers from 2 to 12. Among these, the prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11. The probability you get each of them is: 2: you can get it only as 1+1, so one combination over 36 possibility. Probability: 1/36. 3: you can get it as 1+2 or 2+1, so two combinations over 36 possibility. Probability: 2/36. 5: you can get it as 1+4, 2+3, 3+2, 4+1, so four combinations over 36 possibility. Probability: 4/36. 7: you can get as 1+6, 2+5, 3+4, 4+3, 5+2, 6+1, so six combinations over 36 possibility. Probability: 6/36. 11: you can get it as 5+6 or 6+5 so two combinations over 36 possibility. Probability: 2/36. The total probability of getting a prime number is the sum of the probabilities, which is 15/36. So m=15, n=36 and 10m+n=150+36=186.

A number and it's absolute value are equal. If you subtract 2 from the number, the new number and it's absolute value are not eq
yaroslaw [1]
This means that the number is positive. 

The absolute value is the distance away from 0 the number is.

So 1's absolute value would be 1, yet -5's absolute value would be 5.

So the number that's equal to its absolute value is positive, and the one that's not is negative.

So if you subtract 2 from the positive number, it must turn negative.

So 1 is a number that satisfies these conditions.

HELLO THERE!

(:

This is a problem that looks harder then it seems, First determine the cost of each item he is trying to buy. Then figure out the number of dollars he has to spend. Once you have figured that out you divide the cost into how much he has.

For example.
John has 10 dollars. He wants to buy pencils. Each pencil will cost john 2 Dollars. How many can he buy?

By dividing the cost of the pencils = 2 into the number of dollars he has 10 Divided by 2, we get 5. 

Now it's your turn. Divide the number he has to spend by the price of the items. This will get you your answer! 
Hope this helped!
