Answer:

Elena invested $ 1,700 at 5%, $ 700 at 4%, and $ 600 at 3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Elena receives $ 131 per year in simple interest from three investments totaling $ 3000, and part is invested at 3%, part at 4% and part at 5%, and there is $ 1000 more invested at 5% than at 4%, to find the amount invested at each rate, the following calculations must be performed:

1500 x 0.05 + 500 x 0.04 + 1000 x 0.03 = 75 + 20 + 30 = 125

1600 x 0.05 + 600 x 0.04 + 800 x 0.03 = 80 + 24 + 24 = 128

1700 x 0.05 + 700 x 0.04 + 600 x 0.03 = 85 + 28 + 18 = 131

Therefore, Elena invested $ 1,700 at 5%, $ 700 at 4%, and $ 600 at 3%

HOW TO DETERMINE SLOPE AND Y-INTERCEPT: Use the instructions below to answer this question.

EQUATION: y=\frac{-3}{4}x-3

-------------------------------------------------

<h2>INSTRUCTIONS:</h2>

FINDING THE Y-INTERCEPT:

Do this simply by finding the number your graph starts at on the Y-Axis (vertical line)! In this case, it's at -3!

FINDING SLOPE:

Remember that slope is rise over run (\frac{rise}{run})

RISE = How far the line goes <em>up </em>and <em>down</em>.

RUN = How far the line goes <em>left </em>or <em>right</em>.

HOW DO I FIND IT? All you have to do is count both rise and run from one point on the line to another! WARNING: The point must hit at a vertex, it cannot be counted if it is in the center of the box, or anywhere that does not touch the edge. I also suggest starting from the <u>Y-Intercept</u> and counting.

GOING LEFT OR DOWN: This is a positive number

GOING RIGHT OR UP: This is a negative number.

(You will see how this applies, below, yayyyy)

CALCULATING OUR NUMERATOR, AKA RISE:

Starting from the y, to get to the next point on the line, you can see we have to go down three. This means our numerator is -3!

CALCULATING OUR DENOMENATOR, AKA RUN:

Starting from where we just stopped, we must continue getting to the next point, and to do that, you can see we have to go to the right four! This means our denomenator is 4!

The equation ​yˆ=−6.2x2+41.5x−5.6​ approximates the average number of cars that pass through an intersection x hours after 3:00
Neko [114]

Answer:

59

Step-by-step explanation:

5: 30 pm is 2.5 hours after 3 : 00 pm

Substitute x = 2.5 into the equation

y = - 6.2(2.5)² + 41.5(2.5) - 5.6

  = - 38.75 + 103.75 - 5.6

  = 59.4

The average number of cars is 59

In a lab experiment, 3100 bacteria are placed in a petri dish. The conditions are such that the number of bacteria is able to do
timama [110]
2,862 bacteria

6,200/26 = x/12
For one hour, there are 238.461538. Multiply that by 12 and get 2861.53846. Round to the nearest whole number and your answer is 2,862 bacteria.

Solve –4(6x + 3) = –12(x + 10).
Artist 52 [7]
<span>–4(6x + 3) = –12(x + 10)
 -24x - 12 = -12x - 120
24x - 12x = 120 - 12
12x = 108
x = 9
