Step-by-step explanation:

Increase in price = R6 - R5 = R1

% increase. =. R1÷R6 × 100 = R0.16 ×100%

% increase. = 16%

The amount in an account with a beginning balance of $3000 and interest compounded continuously at an annual rate of 5.5% can be

Illusion [34]

False.

The applicable formula for amount in account (a) after t years is given by:

a = Pe^(rt); where a = Amount in an account, P = Amount deposited, r = Annual interest rate, t = time in years.

Substituting;
a = 3000e^(0.055t)

If the mean of a normal distribution is 105, what is the median of the distribution? O A 315 OB. 105 O C. 420 D. 210 SUBM

Oliga [24]

Answer:

105

Step-by-step explanation:

A normal or symmetrical distribution where each the distance between each side of the distribution to the midpoint is the same, a normal distribution, also called a symmetrical distribution has the se value for both its median and mean. Hence, if the mean of a normal distribution is x, then it's median will also be x.

For the scenario given,

Since mean = 105 ; then median = 105

Find the critical point of the given function and then determine whether it is a local maximum, local minimum, or saddle point.

34kurt

Answer:

critical point of the given function f(x,y) = x²+y²+2xy is from line y = -x is the critical point of the function f(x0,y0) = 0

and it local minimum.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the given function be;

f(x,y) = x²+y²+2xy

From above function, we can locate relative minima, maxima and the saddle point

f(x,y) = x²+y²+2xy = (x+y)²

df/dx = 2x+2y = 0 ---- (1)

df/dy =2y+2x = 0 ---- (2)

From eqn 1 and 2 above,

The arbitrary point (x0,y0) from line y = -x is the critical point of the function f(x0,y0) = 0

Then, from f(x,y) >= 0 for arbitrary (x,y) € R^n, the arbitrary point from the line x = -y is local minima of the function f.

which ordered pair is a solution to the system of linear equations 1/2 x - 3/4 y = 11/60 and 2/5 x + 1/6 y = 3/10?

bekas [8.4K]

Value of $x=\frac{2}{3}\,\,and\,\,value\,\,of\,\,y=\frac{1}{5}$

Solution set is $(\frac{2}{3},\frac{1}{5})$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the following system of equations:

$\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{4}y=\frac{11}{60}\,\,\,eq(1)\\\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{1}{6}y=\frac{3}{10}\,\,\,eq(2)$

We can solve this using Substitution.

Isolate x in $\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{4}y=\frac{11}{60}$

$\frac{1}{2}x=\frac{11}{60}+\frac{3}{4}y\\ x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y$

Putting value of x in equation(2)

$\frac{2}{5}(\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y)+\frac{1}{6}y=\frac{3}{10}\\Solving:\\Taking\,\,LCM\,\,of\,\,5,6,10 \,\,we\,\,get: 30\\Multiply\,\,by\,\,LCM\\\frac{2}{5}(\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y)\times30+\frac{1}{6}y\times30=\frac{3}{10}\times30\\Simplifying:\\12(\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y)+5y=9\\\frac{22}{5}+18y+5y=9\\23y=9-\frac{22}{5}\\23y=\frac{45-22}{5}\\23y=\frac{23}{5}\\y=\frac{\frac{23}{5} }{23}\\y=\frac{1}{5}$

Putting value of y=1/5 in $x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y$

$x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}\times\frac{1}{5} \\x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{10}\\x=\frac{11+3*3}{30}\\x=\frac{11+9}{30} \\x=\frac{20}{30}\\x=\frac{2}{3}$

So, value of $x=\frac{2}{3}\,\,and\,\,value\,\,of\,\,y=\frac{1}{5}$

Solution set is $(\frac{2}{3},\frac{1}{5})$
