Answer:
43.234%
Step-by-step explanation:
40 Percent of 285= 14.035%
60 percent of 980 = 6.122%
75 percent of 325 = 23.077%
Sum is 43.234%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula to calculate continuously compounded interest is equal to
where
A is the Final Investment Value
P is the Principal amount of money to be invested
r is the rate of interest in decimal
t is Number of Time Periods
e is the mathematical constant number
we have
substitute in the formula above
-18. The value has gone down $18 on the gift card.
Y = -7
x = -19
Steps:
Add the two equations together:
y - x + y + x = -14
2y = -14
y = -7
-7 + x = -26
x = -19
Let's make some variables to represent the cost of the tables and chairs.
Let x be equal to the cost of one chair
Let y be equal to the cost of one table
The total cost for 3 chairs and 2 tables is $17.
3x + 2y = 17
The total cost for 8 chairs and 4 tables is $37.
8x + 4y = 37
Now we have our system of equations.
Let's solve it.
3x + 2y = 17
8x + 4y = 37
We can cancel the y's very easily. Then it would just leave us with the x's.
Multiply the top equation by -2.
3x(-2) + 2y(-2) = 17(-2) =
-6x - 4y = -34
Then add the equations together.
-6x - 4y = -34
8x + 4y = 37
=
2x = 3
Then just divide both sides by 2.
x = 1.5
Substitute 1.5 into one of the equation. I'll pick 3x + 2y = 17
3(1.5) + 2y = 17 ; Start
4.5 + 2y = 17 ; Multiply 3 and 1.5 together
2y = 12.5 ; Subtract 4.5 from each side of the equation
y = 6.25 ; Divide both sides by the coefficient of y. Which 2
So, a chair costs $1.50 and a table costs $6.25.
