Two students are 1 foot apart on a straight path. Each student starts walking away from the other at the same moment. The first

student walks at a rate of 3 feet per second, and the second student’s rate is 1.5 times the first student’s rate. If x represents seconds, which equation can be used to determine how long it will take for the students to be a total of 28 feet apart?

Answer:

3x + 4.5x + 1 = 28

3.6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial distance apart = 1 foot

Student A:

Walk rate = 3 ft per second

Student B:

1.5*3 = 4.5 ft per second

How long it will take to be a total of 28 feets apart

Distance = speed * time

Let time = x in seconds

Student A distance = 3x

Stident B distance = 4.5x

Initial distance = 1 foot

3x + 4.5x + 1 = 28

7.5x = 28 - 1

7.5x = 27

x = 27/ 7.5

x = 3.6 seconds

Use the periodic compound interest formula to solve.
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

$15,539.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound Interest Formula

\large \text{$ \sf A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} $}

where:

  • A = final amount
  • P = principal amount
  • r = interest rate (in decimal form)
  • n = number of times interest applied per time period
  • t = number of time periods elapsed

Given:

  • P = $11,000
  • r = 5.8% = 0.058
  • n = 4 (quarterly)
  • t = 6 years

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for A:

\implies \sf A=11000\left(1+\frac{0.058}{4}\right)^{(4 \times 6)}

\implies \sf A=11000(1.0145)^{24}

\implies \sf A=15539.67451...

Therefore, the value of the investment after 6 years will be $15,539.67 to the nearest cent.

What is solve 5x-65=3x-17
NikAS [45]
If you would like to solve 5x - 65 = 3x - 17, you can do this using the following steps:

5x - 65 = 3x - 17
5x - 3x = 65 - 17
2x = 48
x = 48/2
x = 24

The correct result would be 24.
