Let x dollars be your investment at 7%;

then the investment at 3% is the rest (1000-x) dollars.


The total interest equation is

0.07x + 0.03*(1000-x) = 0.061*1000.


Express x and calculate

x = %280.061%2A1000-0.03%2A1000%29%2F%280.07-0.03%29 = 775.


ANSWER. $700 is the 7% investment; the rest, (1000-775) = 225 dollars is the 3% investment.

Preeta’s book has 300 pages. Each day she reads 10 more pages than the day before. She finishes her book in 6 days. How many pag
Scilla [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. if the number of pages in the 1st day is 'x', then the 2d day - 'x+10', the 3d day - 'x+20', the 4th day - 'x+30', the 5th day - 'x+40' and the last day - 'x+50' pages;

2. if the sum of all the pages is 300, then it is possible to make up the equation:

x+x+10+x+20+x+30+x+40+x+50=300;

3. x=25, it means:

1st day - 25;

2d day - 35;

3d day - 45;

4th day - 55;

5th day - 65;

6th day - 75 pages.

Group Work 2.6 Newton's Law of Cooling states that an object cools at a rate proportional to the difference between the temperat
Airida [17]

Answer:

ΔT = ΔT0 e^-K T

As I understand Newton's Law of Cooling

ΔT at any time is the difference between the temperature and the surroundings

Originally       ΔT0 = 95 - 22   difference between 95 and room temperature

65 - 22 = 33 = 73 e^-KT      where t is time to cool to 65 deg

ln (33/73) = -KT       K = .794 / 5 = .159    where 5 is time to cool to 65 deg

40 - 22 = 73 e^-.159 T      where t is time to cool to 40 deg

18 = 73 e^-.159 T

ln (18 / 73) = -.159 T

T = 8.8 min

It would take 8.8 min for the object to cool to 40 deg C

Suppose the object cooled from 95 to 90 deg, then

ln 68 / 73 = -.159 T     and T = .45 min

Answer:

See attached graph for the first part

Answer to second part: The end part of the graph show the slowest increase

X +3/ 5 = 2 <br> i need help
DochEvi [55]

This equation basically says that a number plus 3/5 equals 2 so we can simply:

2 - 3/5 = x

Therefore x equals 1 & 2/5 or 1.4
