Answer:

$260

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven

P=$250

R=4%

T=1 year

The total amount of simple interest is

A=P(1+rt)

substitute

A=250(1+0.04*1)

A=250(1.04)

A=250*1.04

A=$260

Hence the total amount is $260

At 8:00 am the smiths left a camp ground, driving at 48 mi/h. At 8:20 am the Garcia's left the same campground and followed the

Fantom [35]

Answer:

9:40 am

Step-by-step explanation:

Let time taken from when Smith left compound to when Garcia overtakes Smith's car be represented by y

After y hours, Smith has covered 48*y=48y miles

Similarly, due to a difference of 20 minutes which is 20/60=1/3 hours, Garcia moves a distance of

60(y-1/3)

Equating both distances to be the same

60y-20=48y

12y=20

y=20/12=5/3 hours

Converted to minutes

5/3*60=100 minutes= 1 hr 40 mins

Therefore, adding 100 minutes to to starting time of Smith

8:00+1:40=9:40 am

The time that Garcia overtakes Smith is 9:40am

If y= 3x + 6, what is the minimum value of (x^3)(y)?

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Given the statement: if y =3x+6.

Find the minimum value of $(x^3)(y)$

Let f(x) = $(x^3)(y)$

Substitute the value of y ;

$f(x)=(x^3)(3x+6)$

Distribute the terms;

$f(x)= 3x^4 + 6x^3$

The derivative value of f(x) with respect to x.

$\frac{df}{dx} =\frac{d}{dx}(3x^4+6x^3)$

Using $\frac{d}{dx}(x^n) = nx^{n-1}$

we have;

$\frac{df}{dx} =(12x^3+18x^2)$

Set $\frac{df}{dx} = 0$

then;

$(12x^3+18x^2) =0$

$6x^2(2x + 3) = 0$

By zero product property;

$6x^2=0$ and 2x + 3 = 0

⇒ x=0 and x = $-\frac{3}{2} = -1.5$

then;

at x = 0

f(0) = 0

and

x = -1.5

$f(-1.5) = 3(-1.5)^4 + 6(-1.5)^3 = 15.1875-20.25 = -5.0625$

Hence the minimum value of $(x^3)(y)$ is, -5.0625

The domain of both

Margarita [4]

Answer:

The domain of function $h(x)$ is set of all real numbers.

Domain: (-∞,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$f(x)=x-6$

$g(x)=x+6$

the domain of both the above functions is all real number.

To find domain of :

$h(x)=f(x)g(x)$

Substituting functions $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ to find $h(x)$

$h(x)=(x-6)(x+6)$

The product can be written as difference of squares. $[a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)]$

∴ $h(x)=x^2-36$

The degree of the function $h(x)$ is 2 as the exponent of leading term $x^2$ is 2. Thus its a quadratic equation.

For any quadratic equation the domain is set of all real numbers.

So Domain of $h(x)$ is (-∞,∞)
