Answer:

Find the summary below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The article compares the standard of healthy living some hundred years ago to what is obtainable in our world today. While the energy gained through food consumption some years ago was just adequate and at the right proportion, what is consumed today, supplies energy that is on an all-time high. This misuse of resources led to the development of sustainable development practices such as planting of trees, exercise routines which are done occasionally.

Another sustainable practice that can be done on a more regular basis is the use of jute or paper bags which are more biodegradable, instead of plastic bags. Finally, the article encourages the adoption of more sustainable practices because they can be more economical compared to the other practices that are presumed to be the status quo.

An employee puts 10000 in a retirement account that offers 4% interest. How much will he have in 12 years

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

14800

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest (I) in terms of principal (P), rate (R) and time (T) is given as follows;

I = P x R x T / 100 ------------- (i)

Given:

Principal (P) = Initial amount being put into the account = 10000

Rate (R) = The interest rate being offered by the account manager = 4%

Time (T) = Time taken = 12 years

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows:

I = 10000 x 4 x 12 / 100

I = 4800

Therefore, the initial amount will yield an interest of 4800 for those 12 years.

The total amount the employee will thus have in 12 years will be the sum of the initial amount and the interest. i.e

Amount = P + I

Amount = 10000 + 4800

Amount = 14800

What are the coordinates of each point after quadrilateral ABCD is reflected across the y-axis and then translated 2 units down?

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

$A" =(-1,-1)$ $B" =(-2,1)$

$C" =(-4,1)$ $D" =(-5,-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$A = (1,1)$ $B =(2,3)$

$C = (4,3)$ $D = (5,1)$

Required

The new coordinates after reflected across y-axis and shifted 2 units down

When a point is reflected across the y-axis, the rule is:

$(x,y)=>(-x,y)$

So:

$A = (1,1)$ $=> A' = (-1,1)$

$B =(2,3)$ $=> B' = (-2,3)$

$C = (4,3)$ $=> C' = (-4,3)$

$D = (5,1)$ $=> D' = (-5,1)$

When a point is translated 2 units down, the rule is:

$(x,y) => (x,y-2)$

So:

$A = (1,1)$ $=> A' = (-1,1)$ $=> A" =(-1,-1)$

$B =(2,3)$ $=> B' = (-2,3)$ $=> B" =(-2,1)$

$C = (4,3)$ $=> C' = (-4,3)$ $=> C" =(-4,1)$

$D = (5,1)$ $=> D' = (-5,1)$ $=> D" =(-5,-1)$

So, the new coordinates are:

$A" =(-1,-1)$ $B" =(-2,1)$

$C" =(-4,1)$ $D" =(-5,-1)$
