Answer:

No, Kareem is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kareem says that the ratio of $\frac{4}{1}=\frac{12}{9}$ because 4 + 8 = 12 and 1 + 8 = 9

But the correct way to rewrite the ratio 4 : 1 is,

$\frac{4}{1}=\frac{4\times 3}{1\times 3}$

Which becomes as,

$\frac{4}{1}=\frac{12}{3}$

Therefore, Kareem is not correct.

Correct ratio equivalent to 4 : 1 is 12 : 3.

Which of the following sets would have a graph with an open circle on 2 and a ray pointing left on the number line?

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

{x | x∈ R, x < 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Open circle on 2

Arrow pointing left

Required

Determine the inequality

An open circle on 2 means represents either < or >

The arrow points to the left of -2 means that the number line represents numbers less than 2. i.e. < 2

Represent the numbers with x.

The inequality is: x < -2

Using proper notation, the inequality is: {x | x∈ R, x < 2}

Investigate the difference between compounding annually and simple interest

Gennadij [26K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest formula

$A = P (1 + rt)$

Compound interest formula

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

$A = 5000 (1 + 0.025*1)\\A=5000(1.025)\\A=5125$

Simple interest is $125

. $A = 5000 (1 + \frac{0.025}{1})^{1*1} \\A=5000(1.025)\\A= 5125$

Compound interest is $125

c. the result for both a and b are the same

$A = 5000 (1 + 0.025*3) \\A=5000(1.075) \\A=5375$

the simple interest is $375

. $A = 5000 (1 + \frac{0.025}{1})^{1*3}] \\A=5000(1.025)^3 \\A=5000(1.077)\\A= 5385$

the compound interest is $385

f. the result compared, compound interest is $10 more than simple interest

$A = 5000 (1 + 0.02*6) \\A=5000(1.12) \\A=5600$

the simple interest is $600

$A = 5000 (1 + \frac{0.02}{1})^{1*6}] \\A=5000(1.12)^6 \\A=5000(1.9738) \\A= 9869$

the compound interest is $4869

i. the result from g and h, h is over 8 times bigger than g.

j. interest compound annually is not the same as simple interest, only for the case of a and b seeing that it is for 1 year. but for 2years and above there is difference as seen in c to h

It costs the school band SS dollars per sandwich that they make. The band sells each sandwich for 20\%20% more than it costs to

Annette [7]

Money Required for making 1 Sandwich that is Cost Price of 1 Sandwich = S Dollar

Selling Price of 1 Sandwich = 20 % more than Cost Price S

= S + 20 % of S

= $\frac{20S}{100}+S=\frac{120S}{100}$

=$ 1.20 S

= $(S + 0.20 S)

Selling Price of 73 Sandwiches = $ 73 (S + 0.20 S)

The expression $73(S+0.2 S) →→ Selling Price of 73 Sandwiches

After a storm, a tree lies as shown. What was the original height of the tree? (Round to the nearest whole foot.)

Andreyy89

Using the Law of Sines, sina/A=sinb/B=sinc/C (although there are other ways considering that this is a 30, 60, 90 degree triangle with a basic identity) we can say:

97/sin60=x/sin30=y/sin90

x=97sin30/sin60 and y=97sin90/sin60

The total height of the tree is h=x+y so

h=97sin30/sin60 + 97sin90/sin60

h≈168.01 ft (to the nearest hundredth of a foot)

h≈168 ft (to nearest foot)
