Answer:

2yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Amount of interest earned  = $40

Principal  = $400

Interest rate  = 5%

Unknown:

Time taken for the money to be in bank = ?

Solution:

   The formula for interest is given as:

         I = \frac{PRT}{100}  

    Where I is the interest

              P is the principal

               R is the rate

               T is the time

    So;

    100I  = PRT

       T  = \frac{100I }{PR}   = \frac{100 x 40}{400 x 5}  = 2yrs

The midpoint of UV is (5, -10). The coordinates of one endpoint are U(3,6). Find the coordinates of endpoint V.
Grace [21]

The answer is (7, -26) for The second endpoint.  

We'll call the midpoint M. In order to find this, we must first note that to find a midpoint we need to take the average of the endpoints. To do this we add them together and then divide by 2. So, using that, we can write a formula and solve for each part of the k coordinates. We'll start with just x values.

(Ux + Vx)/2 = Mx

(Vx + 3)/2 = 5

Vx + 3 = 10

Vx = 7

And now we do the same thing for y values

(Uy + Vy)/2 = My

(Vy + 6)/2 = -10

Vy + 6 = -20

Vy = -26

This gives us the final point of (7, -26)

Fantom [35]

Answer:

Danielle earns $1.20 more than Mackenzie (per hour)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much money per hour each person earns, you would divide the earinings by the number of hours;

Danielle: $36.80/4 = $9.20 per hour

MackKenzie: $50.40/6 = $8.40 per hour

To find out how much extra Danielle earns, you would subtract 8.40 from 9.20;

9.40 - 8.20 = $1.20

Thus, Danielle earns $1.20 more than Mackenzie per hour.
