Why not write all of the numbers in decimal fraction form, to make them easier to compare?
68 2/3 = 68.666...
72 1/2 = 72.500
68 3/10 = 68.300
74 7/11 = 74.636...
68 1/2 = 68.500
550/8 = 68.750
Now ask yourself: Which of the last four numbers is between 68.666.. and 72.500?
Answer:
(- 4, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = x + 5 → (1)
x - 5y = - 9 → (2)
Substitute y = x + 5 into (2)
x - 5(x + 5) = - 9 ← distribute and simplify left side
x - 5x - 25 = - 9
- 4x - 25 = - 9 ( add 25 to both sides )
- 4x = 16 ( divide both sides by - 4 )
x = - 4
Substitute x = - 4 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y
Substituting into (1)
y = - 4 + 5 = 1
Solution is (- 4, 1 )
Final balance = $416.28
total compound interest= $16.28
Answer: 41.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
You divide the amount of trees 40ft or taller (10) by the total number of trees (24) so 10/24 = .416 (41.6%)
