For the fulcrum to balance, the product of weight and distance on both sides of the fulcrum must be the same.
Let d1= x. since total distance is 12, we can write d2 = 12 - x
for the fulcrum to balance:
60x = 50(12 - x)
60x = 600 - 50x
110x = 600
x = 5.45
Thus, d1= 5.45
and
d2= 12 - d1 = 12 - 5.45 = 6.55
d1 = 5.45
d2 = 6.55
Answer:
A) The annual multiplier was 1.0339; the annual increase was 0.0339 of the value.
B) 3.39% per year
C) $182,000
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Let's let t represent years since 1987. Then we can fill in the numbers and solve for r.
165000 = 100000(1 +r)^15
1.65^(1/15) = 1 +r . . . . . divide by 100,000; take the 15th root
1.03394855265 -1 = r ≈ 0.0339
The value was multiplied by about 1.0339 each year.
__
B) The value increased by about 3.39% per year.

C) S = $100,000(1.03394855265)^18 ≈ $182,000
X = bessie and y = betty
x + y = 1464
y = 2x - 375
x + 2x - 375 = 1464
3x - 375 = 1464
3x = 1464 + 375
3x = 1839
x = 1839/3
x = 613 <== Bessie gave 613 gallons
y = 2x - 375
y = 2(613) - 375
y = 1226 - 375
y = 851 <== Betty gave 851 gallons
Answer:
sure
Step-by-step explanation:
C. 8.7 x 102
8.7 x 102= 887.4
Which is the largest product out of all the other equations.
Hope this helps!
