Answer:

$3,000 was invested in the account that gained 13%

$17,500 was invested in the account that lost 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount in both accounts be x and y

x for the first and y for the second

Adding both is 20,500

x + y = 20,500 •••••(i)

First account earned 13% profit

= 13/100 * x = 0.13x

Second account, a loss of 10%

= -10/100 * y = -0.1y

Total loss of -1,360

This is;

-0.1y + 0.13x = -1,360 •••••••(ii)

From i, x = 20,500-y

Insert this into ii

-0.1y + 0.13(20,500-y) = -1,360

-0.1y + 2665 -0.13y = -1360

-0.23y = -1360-2665

-0.23y = -4025

y = -4025/-0.23

y = 17,500

To get x, we have

x = 20,500 -y

x = 20,500- 17,500

x = 3,000

Keep your mom, you only have one. But anyway;

Use the Pythagorean Theorem: A^2 + B^2 = C^2

12^2 + 21^2 = C^2

144 + 441 = C^2

585 = C^2

square root of 585 = approximately 24.2

7 times as much as the sum of 1/3 and 4/5
Zanzabum
Well first we want to divide 1 by 3 , which is 0.3  ,  Now we need to divide 4 by 5 which is 0.8 . 

We have our answers but 7 needs to be added by their sum so lets put them together by adding them : 0.3 + 0.8 = 1.1.

Now lets add 7 and 1.1 all together , which is 8.1.

the sum of the two trains is 723.5 mph if the speed of the first train is 12.5 mph faster than that of the second train find the
jonny [76]
First, let's see if we can rewrite this word problem a little bit more mathematically. We won't get to mathy or technical so no worries. We just want to look at it in a more straightforward way, if we can.

Train A's mph plus Train B's mph summed equal 723.5 mph. Train A's mph is greater than Train B's mph by 12.5 mph.   
So what should we do to solve this problem? Since we are dealing with two of something and we know the value of the two combined, it might make sense to start by dividing that value by 2.
723.5 / 2 = <em /> 361.75. If the two trains were travelling at the same speed, we would be done. Unfortunately, they are not so we need to think about this some more. 
Train A is going 12.5 mph faster than Train B. Let's rewrite.
Train A mph = 12.5 + 361.75 = 374.25  Okay, so Train A is travelling at a speed of 374.25 mph. So we're done right? Not exactly. We are asked to fing the speeds of BOTH trains. How do we find the speed of Train B? We have added a portion of the combined total to Train A. It seems to follow, then, we should probably subtract the same portion from Train A. What are we going to do? You guessed it! Rewrite.
Train B mph = 361.75 - 12.5 = 349.25 HA HA! We seem to have figured it out. Let's do one last thing to check our work. Let's add the two trains' speeds together. If we did this right, we should get our summed value of 723.5 mph
374.25 + 349.25 = 723.5
Pat yourself on the back! We did it!

374.25 + 349.25 =
