John invested his inheritance of $12000 in 3 different funds part in a money market fund paying 3% interest annually Parton monu

Leokris [45]

Answer:

John invested $2,000 in money-market fund, $3,000 in municipal bonds, and $7,000 in mutual funds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

John invested his inheritance of $12,000 in three different funds: part in a money-market fund paying 3% interest annually; part in municipal bonds paying 4% annually; and the rest in mutual funds paying 7% annually. John invested $4,000 more in mutual funds than he invested in municipal bonds. The total interest earned in one year was $670. How much did he invest in each type of fund?

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

Let a, b and c represent the amount invested in money-market fund, municipal bonds and mutual funds respectively. Therefore, the sum of the three principal amounts can be represented as follows:

a + b + c = 12,000 ……………………….. (1)

Since John invested $4,000 more in mutual funds than he invested in municipal bonds, we have:

c = b + 4,000 ……………………………. (2)

The total amount of interest earned from each fund can be represented as follows:

0.03a + 0.04b + 0.07c = 670 ………………. (3)

Substituting equation (2) into equation (1), we have:

a + b + b + 4,000 = 12,000

a + 2b = 12,000 – 4,000

a + 2b = 8,000

a = 8,000 – 2b ……………………….. (4)

Also, substituting equation (2) into equation (3), we have:

0.03a + 0.04b + 0.07(b + 4,000) = 670

0.03a + 0.04b + 0.07b + 280 = 670

0.03a + 0.04b + 0.07b 0 = 670 – 280

0.03a + 0.11b = 390 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, (5)

Substituting equation (4) into equation (5) and solve for b, we have:

0.03(8,000 – 2b) + 0.11b = 390

240 – 0.06b + 0.11b = 390

240 + 0.05b = 390

0.05b = 390 – 240

0.05b = 150

b = 150 / 0.05

b = 3,000

Substituting b = 3,000 into equation (2), we have:

c = 3,000 + 4,000

c = 7,000

Also, substituting b = 3,000 into equation (4), we have:

a = 8,000 – (2 * 3,000)

a = 8,000 – 6,000

a = 2,000

Therefore, John invested $2,000 in money-market fund, $3,000 in municipal bonds, and $7,000 in mutual funds.

Given the following system of equations: 2x + 6y = 12 4x + 3y = 15 Which action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate

Charra [1.4K]

Option A and B are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following systems of equation:

$2x + 6y = 12 \\4x + 3y = 15$

We need to identify the action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate one variable when they are combined.

Checking the options:

a) Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30

If we add equation(1) and the new equation(2) the variable y will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

b) Multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 12y = 24.

If we subtract new equation(1) and equation(2), the variable x will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

c) Multiply the second equation by −4 to get −16x − 12y = −60

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

d) Multiply the first equation by −4 to get −8x − 24y = −48.

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

So, Option A and B are correct.

Help pls!! I’m bad at geometry lol

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The perimeter of a shape is the length around it.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will be using the x and y values and add them together to find the total perimeter.

To do this, let's find all the values of the 2 axis:

(2 to 4) = 2

(1 to 3) = 2

(4 to 10) = 6

(3 to 1) = 2

(10 to 12) = 2

(1 to 8) = 7

(12 to 2) = 10

(8 to 1) = 7

We now add these values together which gives us <em><u>38</u></em>. Don't forget to add the units afterwards (cm, m and so forth).
