Answer:

The dimensions of the iphone are 2 inches by 7 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The dimensions of an iPhone are x – 2 and x + 3.

The area of an iphone is 14 sq inches

We need to find the dimensions of the iPhone. It is in the shape of a rectangle. Its area is given by :

A=l\times b\\\\(x-2)(x+3)=14\\\\x^2-2x+3x-6=14\\\\x^2+x-6-14=0\\\\x^2+x-20=0\\\\x^2+5x-4x-20=0\\\\x(x+5)-4(x+5)=0\\\\(x-4)(x+5)=0\\\\x=4\ and\ x=-5

Neglecting negative value

First dimension = (x-2) = (4-2) = 2 inches

Other dimension = (x+3) = (4+3) = 7 inches

Hence, the dimensions of the iphone are 2 inches by 7 inches.

alexira [117]

Answer:

Amount invested at 7% = 16000

Amount invested at 9% = 12000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount invested at 7% and y be the amount invested at 9%.

Since the total amount invested is $28000, therefore, we can set up the first equation as:

x+y=28000

Secondly, we are give that sum of two investments is $2200. Therefore, we can write the second equation as:

0.07x+0.09y=2200

Now we need to solve these two equations to get the values of x and y.

First of all, we multiply the second equation with 100 in order to get rid of decimal values.

(0.07x+0.09y)*100=2200*100\\7x+9y=220000

Let us use substitution method here. First of all we will solve for y from first equation and plug that into second equation.

y=28000-x

7x+9(28000-x)=220000\\7x+252000-9x=220000\\-2x=-32000\\x=16000

Therefore, amount invested at 7% is $16000 and amount invested at 9% is 28000-16000=$12000.

In a group of 40 people, 27 can speak English and 25 can speak Spanish. How many can speak
Svetradugi [14.3K]

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Information \: provided \:  with  \: us }}}}}\: \bigstar}

➻ In a group of 40 people, 27 can speak English and 25 can speak Spanish.

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{What \: we \:  have  \: to \: find ? }}}}}\: \bigstar}

➻ The required number of people who can speak both English and Spanish .

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Assumption}}}}}\: \bigstar}

<u>Consider</u> ,

➻ A → Set of people who speak English.

➻ B → Set of people who speak Spanish

➻ A∩B → Set of people who can speak both English and Spanish

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Given}}}}}\: \bigstar}

  • ➻ n (A) = 27

  • ➻ n (B) = 25

  • ➻ n (A∪B) = 40

  • ➻ n(A∩B) = ?

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Now}}}}}\: \bigstar}

➻ n(A∪B) = n(A) + n (B) - n(A∩B)

➻ 40 = 27 + 25 - n (A∩B)

➻ 40 = 52 - n (A∩B)

➻ n (A∩B) = 52 - 40

➻ ∴ n (A∩B) = 12

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Therefore}}}}}\: \bigstar}

∴ Required Number of persons who can speak both English and Spanish are <u>12 .</u>

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Verification}}}}}\: \bigstar}

➻ n(A∪B) = n(A) + n (B) - n(A∩B)

➻ 40 = 27 + 25 - 12

➻ 40 = 52 - 12

➻ 40 = 40

➻ ∴ L.H.S = R.H.S
