Answer:

The student incorrectly simplified 30ab\sqrt{2a}+20a\sqrt{2a} .

Thus, option D is correct.

<u></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to determine the Perimeter of a rectangle of width w and length l is expressed as:

P = 2l + 2w

In other words, the perimeter can be determined by multiplying the length and width by 2 and adding the result.

In our case, the dimensions of a rectangle are \sqrt{50a^3b^2}  and  \sqrt{200a^3}\:\:.

Here is the student's solution:

2\sqrt{50a^3b^2}+2\sqrt{200a^3}=2\cdot 5ab\sqrt{2a}+2\cdot 10a\sqrt{2a}

                                 =10ab\sqrt{2a}+20a\sqrt{2a}

                                 =30ab\sqrt{2a}          

The student made an error in calculating 30ab\sqrt{2a}+20a\sqrt{2a} , because 30ab\sqrt{2a}+20a\sqrt{2a} are not like terms.

Hence, 30ab\sqrt{2a}+20a\sqrt{2a} can not be simplified to 30ab\sqrt{2a}

Therefore, the student incorrectly simplified 30ab\sqrt{2a}+20a\sqrt{2a} .

Thus, option D is correct.

<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Here is the correct Solution:</u>

2\sqrt{50a^3b^2}+2\sqrt{200a^3}=2\cdot 5ab\sqrt{2a}+2\cdot 10a\sqrt{2a}

                                 =10ab\sqrt{2a}+20a\sqrt{2a}

klio [65]

Answer:

y = - 0.681 % ≈ -0.7 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

                                                               April 19,1998            October 30, 1998

Value immediately prior to deposit                95                               105

                     Deposit                                       2X                                 X

amount in the account on January 1, 1999 = 115

effective dollar weighted yield = 0%

annual effective time weighted yield = y

To find:

Calculate y

Solution:

Given that the dollar weighted return is 0%

100 is deposited into investment account on January 1, 1998. So, add 100 to the deposits 2X X

100 + 2x + x = 115

3x = 115 - 100

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Compute y

1 + y = (95/100)(105/105)(115/110)

1 + y = 0.95 * 1 * 1.045

1 + y = 0.99318

y = 0.99318 - 1

y = - 0.0068 * 100

y = - 0.681 % ≈ -0.7 %

y = -0.7 %
