Answer:

2/3<9/10; I used 3/4 as a benchmark.

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3<1/2; I used 1/2 as a benchmark.

2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667

1/2 = 0.(10/2) = 0.5

So this is wrong, as 0.667 > 0.5.

1/2=3/5; I used 1/4 as a benchmark.

1/2 = 0.(10/2) = 0.5

3/5 = 0.(30/5) = 0.6

0.5 != 0.6, so this is wrong.

2/3<9/10; I used 3/4 as a benchmark.

2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667

9/10 = 0.(90/10) = 0.9

So this is correct, as 0.667 < 0.9

3/4<2/3; I used 1/2 as a benchmark.

3/4 = 0.(30/4) = 0.75

2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667

0.75 > 0.667, so this is wrong.

Hank put $10,000 in an account for 10 years. The account earned 2.5% interest. How much interest had been earned by the end of t
NeX [460]

Answer:

A = P ( 1+ i )^n

A = 10,000(1+0.025)^10

= 10,000(1.025)^10

= $12,800.84

Step-by-step explanation:

A = future amount

i = interest rate

n = number of years

P = Present value

i.e i = 2.5% , P = $10,000 and n = 10 years

Find the zeros of the function. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.
Harman [31]

Answer:

  x = 5, x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Set f(x) = 0 and solve for x.

  0 = (x -8)² -9

  9 = (x -8)² . . . . . add 9

  ±√9 = x -8 . . . . . take the square root

  ±3 +8 = x . . . . . . . add 8

That is, ...

  x = 8 -3 = 5 . . . . lesser x

  x = 8 +3 = 11 . . . greater x
