Answer:

the larger number is 69

the smaller number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the smaller number

y is the larger number

x + y = 85

y - 4x = 5

y = 5 + 4x

x + 5 + 4x = 85

5x = 80

x = 16

y = 69

Krystal can wax a floor in 16 minutes. Perry helped her and it took 5.76 minutes. How long would it take perry to do it alone?
finlep [7]
<span>Krystal's rate = 1 floor in 16 min. = 1/16 floors per min.

Working together their rate = 1 floor in 5.76 min. = 1/5.76 floors per min.

We need to determine Perry's rate, so we need to equate their combined rate with the sum of the individual rates.

Let Perry's time = x

In equation form, we can write:
1/16 + 1/x = 1/5.76
Solve for x:

(x+16)/16x = 1/5.76 -> 5.76(x+16) = 16x -> 10.24x = 92.16 -> x = 9

So, Perry would take 9 mins. to do the floor alone.

I hope this helped!

harry invests £6000 in a savings account. the account pays 3.4% compound interest per year. work out the value of his investment
Nataly_w [17]

Invested amount (P0 = £6000.

Rate of interest (r) = 3.4% = 0.034.

We know compound interest formula

A = P(1+r)^t

We need work out the value of his investment per year.

So, we need to plug t=1 and plugging values of P and r in the formula above, we get

A = 6000(1+0.034)^1

A = 6000(1.034)

A = 6204.

<h3>Therefore, the value of his investment per year is £ 6204.</h3>

Now, we need to work out the value of his investment after 3 years.

So, we need to plug t=3.

A = 6000(1+0.034)^3

A = 6000(1.034)^3

1.034^3=1.105507304

A = 6000 × 1.105507304

A = 6633.04

<h3>Therefore, the value of his investment after 3 year is  £ 6633.04.</h3>
