<u>Answer: </u>

Physliis invested 32000 dollar at 5% interest rate and 34000 dollar at 7% interest rate.

<u>Solution:</u>

Let Phyllis invest ‘x’ dollar at 5% per year and (66000-x) dollar at 7% per year.

We know,

\text { Simple interest }=\frac{\text {Principal} \times r a t e \times T i m e}{100}

In the question it is given that Simple interest earned from both the investments at the end of the year is $3980.

Using the given below equation, we will try to find out the investments at each rate.

\begin{array}{l}{\frac{x \times 5 \times 1}{100}+\frac{(66000-x) \times 7 \times 1}{100}=3980} \\\\ {\frac{5 x}{100}+\frac{462000-7 x}{100}=3980} \\\\ {\frac{5 x+462000-7 x}{100}=3980} \\\\ {-2 \mathrm{x}+462000=3980 \times 100} \\\\ {-2 \mathrm{x}=398000-462000} \\\\ {-2 \mathrm{x}=-64000} \\\\ {\mathrm{x}=\frac{-64000}{-2}}\end{array}

x = 32000

We can calculate amount for 7% interest rate by,

(66000-32000) =34000

Thus Phyllis invested 32000 dollar at 5% interest rate and 34000 dollar at 7% interest rate.

Melanie uses 8.1 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls. 2/5 of this amount is blue paint, and the rest
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

4.86

Step-by-step explanation:

Melanie uses 8.1 pints of blue paint and white paint for her bedroom

2/5 of this amount is blue paint

Therefore the amount of white paint can be calculated as follows

= 2/5

= 0.4×100

= 40%

60/100 × 8.1

= 0.6 × 8.1

= 4.86

Hence 4.86 pints of white paint will be used to paint the bedroom

I need help with this.
leonid [27]
You are basically just comparing the ratios (the ratios will have to be the same for both for it to be the correct answer)
so for choice A you would do:
116.5cm:845km =0.14
174cm:1160km=0.15
these are not equal so it would not be correct

the correct answer would be B because:
42.25cm:845km=.05
58cm:1160km=.05

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the point-slope equation ...

  y -y1 = m(x -x1)

Solving for y gives ...

  y = mx +(y1 -m·x1)

So, the slope-intercept form equation is fairly easily found:

  y = mx +b . . . . where m = m, and b = y1-m·x1

This is the equation we have used for 'b' in the attached spreadsheet.

__

Of course, the formula for slope is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

This is the equation we have used for 'm' in the attached spreadsheet. For all problems, we have used the first point. (It doesn't matter which point you use if there are two of them.)

__

The second attachment is the Google Sheets spreadsheet saved in ODS format. Most spreadsheet programs should be able to open that so you can see the formulas, if you're interested. (The gray values of m are computed using the two points. The unshaded values of m are entered by hand.)

_____

I'll write a couple of equations in each group so you can see how the spreadsheet numbers relate:

  y = mx +b

1.  y = 2x -7

3.  y = 2/3x +4

8.  y = 1/3x -5

9.  y = -5/2x +4

What value of x makes the equation below true? −2x=−36 A x=−34 B x=−38 C x=−18 D x=18
ad-work [718]

Answer:

D x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

−2x = −36

Divide both sides by -2 to find x

−2x / -2 = −36 / -2

x = −36 / -2

x = 18

x = 18 makes the equation −2x = −36 true
