Liza is driving to her sister's house 360 miles away. After 4 hours, Liza is 2 3 of the way there.

DochEvi [55]

Liza is driving to her sister's house 360 miles away. After 4 hours, Liza is 2/3 of the way there. How many more hours does Liza have to drive?

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

Liza need to drive 2 more hours to reach her sister house

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Liza is driving to her sister's house 360 miles away

So total distance = 360 miles

After 4 hours, Liza is 2/3 of the way there.

$\frac{2}{3} r d \text { of total distance }=\frac{2}{3} \times 360=240$

So Liza has covered 240 miles in 4 hours

Let us find the speed

<em><u>The relation between distance and speed is given as:</u></em>

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

$speed = \frac{240}{4} = 60$

Thus speed = 60 miles per hour

Assuming speed is same throughout the journey, let us calculate the time taken to complete remaining distance

Remaining distance = 360 - 240 = 120 miles

Now distance = 120 miles and speed = 60 miles per hour

$time taken = \frac{distance}{speed}\\\\time taken = \frac{120}{60} = 2$

Thus Liza need to drive 2 more hours to reach her sister house

Find a recurrence relation for the amount of money in a savings account after n years if the interest rate is 6 percent and $50

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$a_n = a_{n-1} (1.06) + 50$

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, $a_0$ is initial amount in the saving account,

Here, the annual interest rate is 6% and additional amount in each year is $ 50,

So, the amount after one year,

$a_1 = a_0 + 6\%\text{ of }a_0 + 50 = a_0 + 0.06a_0 + 50 = a_0(1.06) + 50$

Amount after 2 years,

$a_2 = a_1 + 6\%\text{ of }a_1 + 50 = a_1(1.06) + 50$

Amount after 3 years,

$a_3 = a_2 + 6\%\text{ of }a_2 + 50 = a_2(1.06) + 50$

................................., so on....

Hence, by following the pattern,

The amount after n years,

$a_n = a_{n-1} (1.06) + 50$

Which is the required recurrence relation for the amount of money in a savings account

Plzzzzzz help meeeee

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, 7x=21, it is asking, 7 multiplied by what number is 21? We can try to figure it out. Let's start with 0.

7(0)≠21

Then 1.

7(1)≠21

7(2)≠21

7(3)=21

Therefore, for question a, the answer is 3.

For question b, it's asking 6 minus what is 2.

With this one, we can say it is 4, since 6-4=2.

Now moving on to B.

a) 2x+4=16

We need to isolate x in order to find it's value.

So we can begin with subtracting 4 from both sides, getting us:

2x=12

Then, if we divide both terms by 2, we get x.

x=12/2

x=6.

b)

3 x (z/4)=9

Again, we need to isolate z.

So, we multiply both sides by 4, getting us

3z=36

then we divide by 3

z=36/3

z=12

c) 16-x=2

Here we simply subtract 16 from each side, then flip the signs to get positive x.

So, 16-x=2

-x=-14

x=14

d) 4k=20

This is essentially asking, 4 times what number is 20?

So we can divide both sides by 4 and get

k=20/4

k=5

Three exterior angles of a pentagon measures 60,80and 90.Find the measure of other two exterior angle, assuming them equally Tha

julsineya [31]

Given:

The three exterior angles of a pentagon measures 60,80 and 90.

To find:

The measure of other two exterior angle, assuming them equally.

Solution:

Let x be the measure of two other exterior angles of the pentagon.

We know that the sum of all exterior angles of a pentagon is 360 degrees.

$60^\circ+80^\circ+90^\circ+x+x=360^\circ$

$230^\circ+2x=360^\circ$

$2x=360^\circ-230^\circ$

$2x=130^\circ$

Divide both sides by 2.

$\dfrac{2x}{2}=\dfrac{130^\circ}{2}$

$x=65^\circ$

Therefore, the measures of both exterior angles are 65 degrees.
