Answer:

x =150 men

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the total as workdays

125men* 120days = 15000 workdays

We still need 15000 workdays

100 days * x = 15000workdays

Divide by 100

x = 15000/ 100

x =150 men

motikmotik

Answer:

x=7.3

x= $7\frac{1}{3}$

x= $\frac{22}3}$

just in different form

x - 7 =-x ÷ 2 + 4

x - 7 = $-\frac{1}{2}$ x + 4

2x - 14 = -x + 8

2x + x = 8 + 14

3x = 22

x= $\frac{22}3}$

x=7.3

x= $7\frac{1}{3}$

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The number of candies Hayley has is 16 .

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of candies Hayley has = x

So, Number of candies Hayden has = (x + 3)

Then the Number of candies i have = 2(x + 3)

Also,according to the question:

2(x + 3) = 38

or, 2x + 6 = 38 ⇒ 2x = 32

or, x = 32/2 = 16

⇒ x = 16

So, the number of candies Hayley has is x = 16 .

Use the formula for continuous compounding to compute the balance in the account after 1,5, and 20 years. Also, find the APY for

densk [106]

Answer:

After 1 year: $7,256.59

After 5 years: $8,380.52

After 20 years: $14,381.03

APY = 3.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

If you deposit $7000 with an interest of 3.6%, after 1 year using continuous compounding, you will have

$7000e^{0.036}=7,256.59$

After 5 years you will have

$7000e^{5(0.036)}=8,380.52$

After 20 years

$7000e^{20(0.036)}=14,381.03$

To find the APY for the account, we have to compute the interest earned in one year.

We can do it by cross multiplying or by finding a number x such that

$7000(1+\frac{x}{100})=7,256.59$

Operating on this equation we obtain

x = 0.0366 or 3.66%
