Answer:
The first car was traveling 70 mph, while the second was driving 50 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the cars as a proportion:
X represents the speed of the second car. By cross multiplying, you get the following equation:
You solve by distributing 150 to get 210x = 150x + 3000.
Solving for x gets you 50.
That means the first car was going at 50 mph. Adding 20, you get 70 as the speed for the second car.
Answer:
12.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Start off by the total which is 18. To find the percentage off you will have to make the 30% into a decimal, so simply move it two spaces to the left. Now you have .30. Multiply the decimal, .30, and the full amount, 18. Your equation now should be (.30)*(18). Your answer will be 5.40. 5.40 is what is off of the shirt from the original price, so subtract 5.40 from 18. Your equation now is (18-5.40) which is 12.60.
Answer:
0.13 tax
Step-by-step explanation:
0.044*3=0.132
x is less than or equal to -4 or x is greater than or equal to 5
x <= -4 or x>= 5
There is no intersection of both inequalities when we graph it in number line So, we write the interval notation separately for each inequality
for x<=-4 , x starts at -4 and goes to -infinity because we have less than symbol. Also we have = sign so we use square brackets
Interval notation is (-∞ , -4]
for x>= 5 , x starts at 5 and goes to infinity because we have greater than symbol. Also we have = sign so we use square bracket at 5
Interval notation is [5 , ∞)
Now combine both notation by a 'U' symbol Union
(-∞ , -4] U [5 , ∞)
Let the amount invested at 4% be = x
Let the amount invested at 3% be = y
Given is:
or 
.... (1)
As, total income for the two investments is $194, so equation is:
....(2)
Putting value of x from (1) in (2)
And x=5200-y
Hence, money invested at 4% is $3800 and money invested at 3% is $1400
