Let the amount invested with 5% interest be x
Therefore, the amount invested with 6% interest will be (6000-x)
It is given that the total interest earned yearly is $337.5. Thus, the equation of interest will be:
Multiplying both sides by 100 we get:
Subtracting both sides by 36000 we get:
Thus, the amount invested at 5% is $2250
Therefore, the amount invested at 6% will be $(6000-2250)=$3750
He drinks 8 glasses of water in one day. to know the number of glasses he drinks in 365 days, simply use cross multiplication as follows:
number of glasses per year = (365*8)/1 = 2920 glasses
so, yes his assumption is reasonable if he kept the same rate (8 glasses per day each day)
Answer:
lines a and b are parallel. The slopes are -1/3
None of the lines are perpendicular to each other.
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure out if any of the lines are parallel or perpendicular to each other, you have to find the slopes of each line. To find the slope look at the graph find the rise over run for all of the lines:
line a: This line goes down one every time it goes over 3, which can be represented by -1/3
line b: This lines goes down one every time it goes over 3, which can also be written as -1/3
line c: This line goes up 5 every time it goes over 2, which makes the slope 5/2
When two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. Line a and line b have the same slope, so they are parallel.
When two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. Since none of the slopes are a negative reciprocal of another slope, we have no perpendicular lines.
Hope this helps :)
