Question:

Juan Invest $3700 In A Simple Interest Account At A Rate Of 4% For 15 Years. How Much Money Will Be In The Account After 15 Years?

Answer:

There will be $ 5920 in account after 15 years

Solution:

The simple interest is given by formula:

$S.I = \frac{p \times n \times r }{100}$

Where,

p is the principal

n is number of years

r is rate of interest

From given,

p = 3700

r = 4 %

t = 15 years

Therefore,

$S.I = \frac{3700 \times 4 \times 15 }{100}\\\\S.I = 37 \times 4 \times 15\\\\S.I = 2220$

How Much Money Will Be In The Account After 15 Years?

Total money = principal + simple interest

Total money = 3700 + 2220

Total money = 5920

Thus there will be $ 5920 in account after 15 years

-2x-y=-5 In slope intercept form please! :)

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

-2x - y = -5 in slop intercept form would be y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - y = -5

first add -2x to the left side to move it to the right side because whatever you do to one side u do to the other.

-y = -5 + 2x

divide by -1 on the whole equation

y = -2x + 5 is your answer.

A mirror is 24 inches high and 28 inches wide. The center of the mirror will hang 514 feet from the floor on a wall that is 8 fe

Vanyuwa [196]

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling once the mirror is hung on the wall is 21 inches

The dimension of the mirror is given as:

$Height = 24\ in$

$Width = 28\ in$

From the center of the mirror to the floor of the wall, the distance is:

$Distance =5\frac14\ ft$

So, the distance to the top of the mirror will be:

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft + \frac 12 \times Height$

Substitute 24 for height

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ \frac 12 \times 24\ in$

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ 12 \ in$

Convert feet to inches

$Top = 5\frac 14\times 12\ in+ 12 \ in$

$Top = 63\ in+ 12 \ in$

$Top = 75 \ in$

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling is the difference between the height of the wall and 75 inches.

So, we have:

$Distance = 8\ ft - 75\ in$

Convert feet to inches

$Distance = 8\times 12\ in - 75\ in$

$Distance = 96\ in - 75\ in$

$Distance = 21\ in$

Hence, the distance is 21 inches
