Answer:
$3,000 invested at 6%
$7,000 invested at 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Maria had total $10,000 to invest.
Let x be the amount that Maria invested initially at 6% interest rate.
0.06x
Then she invested the remaining amount at 10% interest rate.
0.10(10,000 - x)
She received a total of $880 in interest.
0.06x + 0.10(10,000 - x) = 880
0.06x + 1000 - 0.10x = 880
-0.04x = 880 - 1000
-0.04x = -120
0.04x = 120
x = 120/0.04
x = $3,000
This is the amount that Maria invested initially at 6% interest rate.
The remaining amount is
10,000 - 3,000
$7,000
This is the remaining amount that she invested at 10% interest rate.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The point slope form of a line is 
where 
. We write
Since the line is parallel to the line shown it will have the same slope. To find m, count the slope from each marked point on the graph. Count the rise then the run and create a fraction rise/run. The slope is 6/4 which simplifies to 3/2. Now substitute it for m.
To find slope use the equation (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
5 - 4 / 2--2
1/-4
The slope is -1/4
Hope this helps :)
<h3>
Answer: y = (3/4)x + 13/4</h3>
This is the same as writing y = 0.75x + 3.25
slope is 3/4 = 0.75
y intercept is 13/4 = 3.25
==========================================================
Explanation:
One marked point on this line is (-3,1)
Another point is at (1,4)
Let's find the slope of the line through these two points.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (4-1)/(1-(-3))
m = (4-1)/(1+3)
m = 3/4
m = 0.75
Now let's use point slope form to find the equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 0.75(x - (-3))
y - 1 = 0.75(x + 3)
y - 1 = 0.75x + 2.25
y = 0.75x + 2.25 + 1
y = 0.75x + 3.25
If you wanted, you can convert those decimal values to fraction form
- 0.75 = 75/100 = 3/4
- 3.25 = 325/100 = 13/4
That means the equation
y = 0.75x + 3.25
is the same as
y = (3/4)x + 13/4
<span>Let n = the number of pages not read
Then the number of pages read = n/4 + 3
Since the total number of pages is 193, we have
n + n/4 + 3 = 193
5n/4 = 190
n = 152
At 8 pages per day it will take 152 pages/ 8 pages/day = 19 days
