Answer:
Number of rocks and fossils collected by you is <u>1 and 24</u> respectively
Number of rocks and fossils collected by your friend is <u>3 and 12 </u>respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of Rocks you collect be x
Let the number of Fossils you collect be y
Then the total number pf objects you collected will be
x + y = 25
x = 25 - y------------------------------(1)
Your friend collects three times as many rocks and half as many fossils as you.
This can be written as
3x + y (1/2) = 15
3x + (y/2) = 15-------------------(2)
Substituting (1) in (2)
3(25 - y) + (y/2) = 15
75 - 3y + (y/2) = 15
Grouping the like terms we get,
75 - 15 = 3y = (y/2)
60 = ( 6y - y /2)
60 x 2 = 6y -y
120 = 5y
y = 120/5
y = 24
Substituting y value in equation(1) we get
x = 25 - 24
x= 1
y= 24
Friends collects 3 times rock
so collects 3x =3(1) = 3rocks
Also he collects half as many fossils
That is
y/2 = 24/2 = 12 fossils

Answer:
Interest = 650$
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Invest Inv = 2000$, interest rate r = 6.5% compounded annually
and time n = 5 years
Formula for calculation is:
Int = (Inv · r · n) / 100
Int = (2000 · 6.5 · 5) / 100 = 650$
Int = 650$
God with you!!!
Don't get too involved in the 'simplify' part just yet.
It doesn't mean make the problem easier.
It means that when you have the answer, make sure it's in simplest form.
That's why it says "Simplify your answer".
Notice that that's the 2nd instruction.
There's nothing to simplify until you have an answer.
The first thing you have to do here is find the area of a triangle.
Do you remember that formula ?
I'll bet you do.
The area of a triangle is (1/2) · (length of the base) · (height) .
The height and the length of the base are given, right there
in the picture. Take those, and use them to find the area.
Once you've multiplied the binomials, don't forget about the (1/2).
Finally, you have a trinomial for an answer.
Put the big sweet cherry on top: Factor it !
I think that's the 'simplify' part.
You may be surprised.
I was when I worked it out just now ... just for you.
<h3><u>Question:</u></h3>
There are 3900 workers in the three main buildings downtown. Twice as many people work in the largest building as in the smallest of the three. There are 500 more workers in the second-largest building than in the smallest building. How many workers are in each building?
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>
There are 850 workers in smallest building and 1700 workers in largest building and 1350 workers in second largest building
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Let "b" be the number of workers in smallest building
Given that Twice as many people work in the largest building as in the smallest of the three
number of workers in largest building = 2b
Given that There are 500 more workers in the second-largest building than in the smallest building
Number of workers in second largest building = 500 + b
Given that there are 3900 workers in 3 buildings
b + 2b + 500 + b = 3900
4b + 500 = 3900
4b = 3900 - 500
4b = 3400
b = 850
Thus there are 850 workers in smallest building
workers in largest building = 2b = 2(850) = 1700
workers in second largest building = 500 + b = 500 + 850 = 1350
Thus there are 850 workers in smallest building and 1700 workers in largest building and 1350 workers in second largest building
