Answer:

Upstream = 0.5 hour.

Downstream = 0.366 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of fram in still water (u) = 2.6 mph.

Speed of water (v) = 0.4 mph .

<h3>Time taken by fran to swim 1.1 mi upstream.</h3>

Speed upstream = u - v = (2.6 - 0.4)  mph = 2.2 mph

So the time taken = \frac{distance}{speed}  = \frac{1.1}{2.2} = 0.5 hour.

<h3>Time taken by fran to swim 1.1 mi downstream.</h3>

Speed downstream = u + v = (2.6 + 0.4) mph = 3 mph .

So the time taken = \frac{1.1}{3} =  0.366 hour .

Suppose that $2000 is invested at a rate of 2.6% , compounded semiannually. Assuming that no withdrawals are made, find the tota
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

$2,589.52

Step-by-step explanation:

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

We start with the compound interest formula above, where

A = future value

P = principal amount invested

r = annual rate of interest written as a decimal

n = number of times interest is compound per year

t = number of years

For this problem, we have

P = 2000

r = 0.026

n = 2

t = 10,

and we find A.

A = $2000(1 + \dfrac{0.026}{2})^{2 \times 10}

A = $2589.52

One number is 4 times a first number. A third number is 100 more than the first number. If the sum of the three numbers is 538,
larisa [96]

Answer:

73

292

173

Step-by-step explanation:

x = first number

4x = second number

100 + x = third number

x + 4x + 100 + x = 538

6x + 100 = 538

6x + 100 - 100 = 538 - 100

6x = 438

6x/6 = 438/6

x = 73

Check:

73 + 4(73) + 100 + 73 = 538

73 + 292 + 173 = 538

538 = 538
