Answer:
40 hens, 5 sheep
Step-by-step explanation:
40 x 2 = 80 (hens have 2 legs)
100 - 80 = 20 ----> 20 legs left for sheep,, sheep have 4 legs
20/4 = 5 so there are 5 sheep
Assume that
a and b = the two legs of the right triangle.
c = the hypotenuse.
The area of the right triangle is 750 yd², therefore
(1/2)*a*b = 750
ab = 1500 (1)
The perimeter is 150yd, therefore
a + b + c = 150 (2)
Let the side fenced with wood be a, at $5/yd. Sides b and c are fenced with steel at $10/y. The total cost is $1200, therefore
5a + 10b + 10c = 1200
or
a + 2b + 2c = 240 (3)
From (2), obtain
c = 150 - a - b (4)
Substitute (4) into (3)
a + 2b + 2(150 - a - b) = 240
-a + 300 = 240
a = 60
From (1), obtain
60b = 1500
b = 25
From (4), obtain
c = 150 - 60 - 25 = 65
Answer:
A. The length of the leg fenced with wood is 60 yd.
B. The length of the leg fenced with steel is 25 yd.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount to spend = 8096.35
Amount already spent = 894. 60 + 1009.99 + 658.50 = 2563.09
Amount left to spend = 5533.26
If there were 5 yes votes for every 4 no votes, there were 5 yes votes for every 9 total votes, so 5/9 of the 7911 votes were yes. 5/9*7911=4395.
Answer: $15385 should be deposited.
Step-by-step explanation:
The principal was compounded monthly. This means that it was compounded 12 times in a year. So
n = 12
The rate at which the principal was compounded is 7.8%. So
r = 7.8/100 = 0.078
It was compounded for 4 years. Therefore,
t = 4
The formula for compound interest is
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. The total amount is given as $21000. Therefore
21000 = P (1+0.078/12)^12×4
21000 = P (1+0.078/12)^48
21000 = P (1+0.0065)^48
21000 = P (1.0065)^48
P = 21000/1.365
P = $15385
