3n - 4n - 2
-n - 2
-n - 2 is the simplest form
3)The original rational number was 17/12.
4)The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
Explanation:
3)Let the numerator be x.
So denominator will be (x - 5)
If we add 5 to numberator then it will be (x + 5)
New number is (x + 5)/(x - 5)=11/6
Solve for X by cross multiplying
6(x + 5)=11(x - 5)
6x + 30=11x - 55
5x=85
x=17
So original rational number was 17/12.
4)The ages of Ruby and Reshma are in the ratio 5:7
So, let the present ages of Ruby and Reshma be 5x and 7x respectively.
Also, it is given that four years from now the ratio of their ages will be 3:4
So, the equation - 5x + 4 / 7x + 3 = 3/4
⇒4(5x+4)=3(7x+4)
⇒20x+16=21x+12
⇒21x−20x=16−12
⇒x=4
⇒5x=20 and 7x=28
The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
Answer:
What you are doing wrong is that you are using the formula to find the area of the entire circle rather than using the formula to find a sector of a circle. The two cases uses 2 different kind sentences of formulas.
Answer:
she is wrong, offer 2 results in lower interests
Step-by-step explanation:
total amount paid if offer 1 is accepted:
$6,000 x (1 + 3%)² = $6,000 x 1.0609 = $6,365.40
she will pay $365.40 in interests
total amount paid if offer 2 is accepted:
($6,000 x 1.01) x 1.05 = $6,060 x 1.05 = $6,363
she will pay $363 in interests
Compounding interest refers to interest that earns more interest itself, e.g. in the first offer, the $180 of interests charged for the first year will earn $5.40 in extra interests. While offer 2 only charges $60 in interests during the first year which will in turn earn $3 of interests. The difference between both offers is that interest charges in offer 1 earn more interests than the interest in offer 2 = $5.40 - $3 = $2.40
