First you Change the mixed number to an improper fraction (14/3) then you simplify (1/4 X 7/3) and then you multiply 1/4 X 7/3 = 7/12 :)
Answer:
5.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Simple interest = $137.50
Principal= $500
time = 5 years
We want to find the rate R
Simple interest= PRT/100
137.50 = 500*R*5/100
137.50=2500R/100
cross multiply
137.5*100= 2500R
13750= 2500R
divide both sides by 2500
R= 13750/2500
R=5.5%
Hence the rate is 5.5%
Answer:
B) y = x + 2 and y = -x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation of a straight line with x-intercept 'a' and y-intercept 'b' be
The line with positive slope has x-intercept a=-2 and y-intercept b=2.
Its equation is:
Multiply through by 2
Solve for y,
For the line with a negative slope,
the x-intercept is a=-4 and the y-intercept is b=-4
Its equation is
Multiply through by -4
Solve for y
Vertex = -b/2a = -(44)/2(-1) = -44/-2 = 22
To find the x-intercepts, set the function equal to 0 and solve for x
