Answer: 10.75 currency units

Step-by-step explanation:

The amounts of money are in the ration 8:3 which means that for every 3 units of the second amount, there are 8 units of the first.

Use direct proportion to solve:

8 : 3

x ; 4.03

Cross multiply to get:

3x = 32.24

x = 32.24 / 3

x = 10.75 currency units

Let L be the line parametrized by x = 2 + 2t, y = 3t, z = −1 − t. (a) Find a linear equation for the plane that is perpendicular

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that L is a line parametrized by

$x = 2 + 2t, y = 3t, z = −1 − t$

The plane perpendicular to the line will have normal as this line and hence direction ratios of normal would be coefficient of t in x,y,z

i.e. (2,3,-1)

So equation of the plane would be of the form

$2x+3y-z =K$

Use the fact that the plane passes through (2,0,-1) and hence this point will satisfy this equation.

$2(2)+3(0)-(-1) =K\\K =5$

So equation is

$2x+3y-z =5$

b) Substitute general point of L in the plane to find the intersecting point

$2(2+2t)+3t-(-1-t) =5\\4+8t+1=5\\8t=0\\t=0\\(x,y,z) = (2,0,-1)$

i.e. same point given.

Calculate the principal amount which earns $500 simple interest over 3 Years at a rate of 8% p.a round to the nearest cent

timama [110]

$500 was earned over 3 years
so, to find one year
500 ÷ 3 = $166.67

Interest for one year is $166.67
Interest rate for one year is 8%

8% = 166.67
1% = $20.83
100% = $2083.33

Principal amount is $2083.33
