Safiya deposited money into a bank account that earned 6.5% simple interest each year. After 312 years, she had earned $36.40 in

Svetllana [295]

Answer: If the time is 3 1/2 years (most reasonable assumption)

Her initial deposit was $160

Step-by-step explanation: The basic formula for simple interest is

<em>i = prt i </em>is interest, P is principal (deposit) r is the percentage (converted to a decimal) and t is time, the number of years.

For this question, you have to rearrange the equation to solve for p.

So divide both sides by rt and you have

p = i/rt

Substitute the values given

p = 36.40/(0.065)(3.5)

Somebody please help me with this !!!

Damm [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1 :

$3x + 2y = 6 \\ 4x + y = 2 \\ 3x = 6 - 2y \\ x = \frac{6 - 2y}{3} = \\ x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\ 4(2 - \frac{2y}{3} ) + y = 2 \\ 8 - \frac{8y}{3} + y = 2 \\ - 1.67y = - 6 \\$

$y = 3.59 \\ x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\x = 2 - \frac{2 \times 3.59}{3} \\ \\ x = - 0.39$

Case 2 :

$3x + 2y = 6 \\ 4x - y = 2 \\ x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\ 4(2 - \frac{2y}{3} ) - y = 2 \\ 8 - \frac{8y}{3} - y = 2 \\ - 3.67y= - 6 \\ y = 1.63$

$x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\ x = 2 - \frac{2 \times 1.63}{3} \\ x = 2 - 1.087 \\ x = 0.913$

A mailbox that is 36 inches tall is beside a tree.The length of the mailboxes shadow is 28 inches.The length of the trees shadow

mixer [17]

Answer:

10.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we have two similar triangles:

- One consists of the mailbox, its shadow and the hypothenuse

- The other one consists of the tree, its shadow and the hypothenuse

The two triangles are similar, so they have same proportions between their sides: therefore, we can apply the rule of three:

$\frac{m}{s_m}=\frac{t}{s_t}$

where

m = 36 in is the height of the mailbox

$s_m=28 in$ is the shadow of the mailbox

t is the height of the tree

$s_t=98 in$ is the length of the shadow of the tree

Solving for t, we find the height of the tree:

$t=\frac{m\cdot s_t}{s_m}=\frac{(36)(98)}{28}=126 in$

And since

1 feet = 12 inches

The height of the tree in feet is

$t=\frac{126}{12}=10.5 ft$
