$400 interest is earned on a principal of $2,000 at a simple interest rate of 5% interest per year. For how many years was the p

4 0

Answer:

4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Simple interest= $400

Principal= $2000

Rate= 5%

The simple interest formula is given as

SI=PRT/100

substitute and solve for T

400=2000*5*T/100

cross multiply

400*100= 10000*T

40000=10000T

T= 40000/10000

T= 4 years

Hence the time taken is 4 years

N the slope-intercept form you use the slope of the line and the y-intercept to express the linear function.
y=mx+b
y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Example
Graph the equation
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
rewrite in slope-intercept form
y=2x+1
y=2x+1
Identify the slope and the y-intercept
m = 2 and b = 1
Plot the point corresponding to the y-intercept, (0,1)
picture23
The m-value, the slope, tells us that for each step to the right on the x-axis we move 2 steps upwards on the y-axis (since m = 2)
picture24
And once you have your second point you can just draw a line through the two points and extend it in both directions.
picture25
You can check to see that the line you've drawn is the correct one by substituting the coordinates of the second point into the original equation. If the equation holds true than the second point is correct.
Our second point = (1, 3)
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
Our second point is a solution to the equation i.e. the line we drew is correct.
A line that passes through the origin has a y-intersect of zero, b = 0, and represents a direct variation.
y=mx
y=mx
In a direct variation the nonzero number m is called the constant of variation.
You can name a function, f by using the function notion
f(x)=mx+b
f(x)=mx+b
f(x) is another name for y and is read as "the value of f at x" or "f of x". You can use other letters than f to name functions.
A group of functions that have similar characteristics are called a family of functions. All functions that can be written on the form f(x) = mx + b belong to the family of linear functions.
The most basic function in a family of functions is called the parent function. The parent function of all linear functions is
f(x)=x

at a particular high school, 42% of the students participate in sports and 25% of the students participate in drama. if 53% of t
baherus [9]

The probability that a student participates in both sports and drama is 0.14.

<h3>What is the formula for P(AUB), where A and B are any two events?</h3>

If A and B are any two events, then the probability of the joint event (A\cup B) is given by the following formula: P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)

Given that 42% of the students participate in sports and 25% of the students participate in drama and 53% of the students participate in either sports or drama.

Suppose S denotes that "a student participates in sports" and D denotes that "a student participates in drama".
So, we have P(S)=\frac{42}{100}=0.42, P(D)=\frac{25}{100}=0.25, P(S\cup D)=\frac{53}{100}=0.53.

We want to find the probability that a student participates in both sports and drama i.e., we want to find P(S\cap D).

By the above formula, we obtain:

P(S\cup D)=P(S)+P(D)-P(S\cap D)\\\Longrightarrow P(S\cap D)=P(S)+P(D)-P(S\cup D)\\\Longrightarrow P(S\cap D)=0.42+0.25-0.53\\\therefore P(S\cap D)=0.14=\frac{14}{100}

Therefore, the probability that a student participates in both sports and drama is 0.14.

A rectangle has area 64 m2. Express the perimeter of the rectangle as a function of the length L of one of its sides. State the
svp [43]
A rectangle is a two-dimensional shape with two sets of equal, parallel sides. These dimensions are the length (L) and the width (W). The formula for the rectangle's area is the product of the two dimensions. The formula for perimeter is

P = 2L + 2W

Since
A = LW = 64
W = 64/L
Substituting to the formula for perimeter would be,

P = 2L + 2(64/L)
P = 2L + 128/L
