Susan has 50% more books than Michael. Michael has 40 books. If Michael buys 8 more books, will Susan have more or less books th

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Susan has more books than Michael.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Susan has 50% more books and Michael has 40 books, that means Susan has 1.5 times 40 = 60

40 + 8 = 48

60 is more than 48, so Susan has more books than Michael

How to calculate intrest

Goryan [66]

Answer:

You can calculate Interest on your loans and investments by using the following formula for calculating simple interest: Simple Interest= P x R x T ÷ 100, where P = Principal, R = Rate of Interest and T = Time Period of the Loan/Deposit in years.

Formula: Simple Interest=P×r×t where: P=Principal amount; r=Annual interest rate; t=...

Principal Amount: Principal Amount remains constant on Simple Interest

Meaning: Simple Interest is calculated on the Principal Amount for the entire tenure

Calculation: It is easy to calculate Simple Interest

Which of the following is an extraneous solution of sqrt 4x + 41 = x+5

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{4x+41}=x+5$

on squaring both sides

$4x+41=(x+5)^2\\\\4x+41=x^2+10x+25\\\\x^2+6x-16=0\\\\x^2+8x-2x-16=0\\\\x(x+8)-2(x+8)=0\\\\(x-2)(x+8)=0$

either x-2=0 or x+8=0

either x=2 or x=-8

Putting x=2 in original equation, we get

$\sqrt{4\times 2+41}=2+5$

7=7 hence, it is not an extraneous solution

Putting x=-8 in original equation

$\sqrt{4\times (-8)+41}=-8+5$

i.e. 3=-3

Hence, x=-8 is an extraneous solution (since it doesn't satisfy the original equation)

Write the equation of a line perpendicular to y=3x+1and goes through the point ( 6,2) y=−13x+4 y=−13x−4 y=3x+4 y=3x−4

Korolek [52]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the perpendicular line

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal

(the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

In this problem

we have

$y=3x+1$

The equation of the given line is $m=3$

the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line is

$m=-\frac{1}{3}$

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=-\frac{1}{3}$

$(x1,y1)=(6,2)$

substitute

$y-2=-\frac{1}{3}(x-6)$

Convert to slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

Distribute right side

$y-2=-\frac{1}{3}x+2$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x+2+2$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x+4$
