The gcf of 90 and 72 is 18, so i divided both of them by 18 and i got 4 and 5, in total he would 9 pieces of wood
Use this formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^nt, where A is the amount after interest (what you are solving for), P is the amount you invested originally, r is the rate at which it was invested in decimal form, n is the number of times the compounding occurs each year, t is the time in years it is invested. It would look like this: A = 500(1 + [.06/12])^12*5. Do inside the parenthesis first to get 1 + .005 = 1.005. Now raise that to the 60th power (12 times 5 is 60) to get 1.34558. Now multiply that by the 500 out front to get a total amount of $674.43
Dependent variables: A variable whose value depends on the value of another variable or variables
independent variable: A variable whose value determines the value of another variable or variables
Given that Betty saves $161 per month which is $141 less than Jack per month. find the amount that Jack will save in 2 years.
First, find how much Jack saves. We can do this buy adding 141 to 161 since Betty saves 141 less meaning we can reverse it by adding it.
141 + 161 = 302
Now, that we know how much Jack saves per month.
Then, we have to find out how many months are in 2 years.
We already know that there is 12 months in a year, so for 2 years, we can simply multiply by 2.
12 x 2 = 24
Therefore, there are 24 months in two years.
Lastly, multiply 24 months by the amount that Jack saves to get the amount in total.
24 x 302 = 7,248
Thus, Jack will save approximately $7,248 in 2 years.
