Answer:

SI = $1,200 ; A = $6,200

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 5000 × 0.03 × 8 = 1200

I = $ 1,200.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 5,000.00

at a rate of 3% per year

for 8 years is $ 1,200.00.

If it takes 6 hours for a plane to travel 720km with a tail wind and 8 hours to make the return trip with a head wind. Find the

denis-greek [22]

The speed of wind and plane are 105 kmph and 15 kmph respectively.

Solution:

Given, it takes 6 hours for a plane to travel 720 km with a tail wind and 8 hours to make the return trip with a head wind.

We have to find the air speed of the plane and speed of the wind.

Now, let the speed wind be "a" and speed of aeroplane be "b"

And, we know that, distance = speed x time.

$\text { Now, at tail wind } \rightarrow 720=(a+b) \times 6 \rightarrow a+b=\frac{720}{6} \rightarrow a+b=120 \rightarrow(1)$

Now at head wind → $720=(a-b) \times 8 \rightarrow a-b=\frac{720}{8} \rightarrow a-b=90 \rightarrow(2)$

So, solve (1) and (2) by addition

2a = 210

a = 105

substitute a value in (1) ⇒ 105 + b = 120

⇒ b = 120 – 105 ⇒ b = 15.

Here, relative speed of plane during tail wind is 120 kmph and during head wind is 90 kmph.

Hence, speed of wind and plane are 105 kmph and 15 kmph respectively.

Y varies directly with x. If x = 16 and y = 2 find y when x = 96

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation y = kx

Plug in x and y to find k:

2 = k(16)

1/8 = k

Then, plug in 1/8 as k and 96 as x to find y:

y = 1/8(96)

y = 12

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Increase in the length of one side = 3.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Yossi has garage whose area is 280 ft²

After rebuilt their is increment in area by 50%

New Area = 280 × 150% = 420 ft²

Also we know that Area of Square = (Length) × (Length)

⇒ Length of Newly built garage = √420 = 20.5 ft

and Length of Originally garage = √280 = 16.7 ft

⇒ Increase in the length of one side = 20.5 - 16.7 = 3.8 ft

She worked a total of 15 hours. If she makes $15 per hour tutoring and $9 per hour at the grocery store and made a total of $159

Ugo [173]

Answer:

11 hours she worked at the grocery store

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming,

the number of hours worked at tutoring = x

the number of hours worked at grocery store = y

which means,

the amount she made at tutoring = x* $15

the amount she made at grocery store = y*$9

we have 2 equations

total number of hours

1) x+y= 15

total amount she earned

2) x* $15+ y* $9= $159

From equation 1

x+y= 15

x=15-y

we replace this x value in equation 2

x* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15-y)* $15+ y* $9= $159

(15*15)- 15y+9y=159

225-6y=159

225-159=6y

66=6y

66/6=y

11=y the number of hours she worked at grocery store.

we place y=11 in our derived x equation

x=15-y

x=15-11

x=4 the number of hours she worked at tutoring.
