Answer:

.75

Step-by-step explanation:

8 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 1 green marble = 12 marbles

P( not blue) = marbles that are not blue / total

                     =(8red+1 green) / 12

                     =9/12

                      = 3/4

                       .75

$1000 is invested at 2.9% annual interest for 6 months.<br> a. Simple Interest b. Compound Interest
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a. Simple interest = $174

b. Compund interest = $1187.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Principal, P = $1000

Interest, R = 2.9%

Time, T = 6 months

a. To find the simple interest;

S.I = (PRT)/100

S.I = (1000*2.9*6)/100

S.I = 17400/100

S.I = $174

b. To find the compound interest;

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{100})^{t}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

A = 1000(1 + \frac{2.9}{100})^{6}

A = 1000(1 + 0.029)^{6}

A = 1000(1.029)^{6}

A = 1000(1.1871)

A = $1187.1

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 26 yards. The length is 4 more yards than twice the width. Find the length and width of
solong [7]

The formula for perimeter is P = 2length + 2width (P = 2L + 2W)

You know that the length is 4 more yards then twice the width. In equation form this would be:

length = 4 + 2w

Plug what you know into the perimeter formula:

26 = 2(4 + 2w) + 2w

First you must distribute the 2 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be 4 and 2w...

26 = (2 * 4) + (2 * 2w) + 2w

26 = 8 + 4w + 2w

Now you must combine like terms. This means that first numbers with  the same variables (w) must be combined...

26 = 8 + 4w + 2w

4w + 2w = 6w

26 = 8 + 6w

Now bring 8 to the left side by subtracting 8 to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 8 is being added on the right side, subtraction (the opposite of addition) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.

26 - 8 = 8 - 8 + 6w

18 = 0 + 6w

18 = 6w

To isolate w divide 6 to both sides

18 / 6 = 6w / 6

w = 3

We know that the width is 3 ft

Now you must find the length. To do this plug 3 where you see w in the equation:

length = 4 + 2w

l = 4 + 2(3)

l = 4 + 6

l = 10

We know that length is 10 ft

Letter B. is the correct answer

Hope this helped!

Which of the following are solutions to the quadratic equation? Check all that
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x2+5x−10=x2+4

Step 1: Subtract x^2+4 from both sides.

2x2+5x−10−(x2+4)=x2+4−(x2+4)

x2+5x−14=0

For this equation: a=1, b=5, c=-14

1x2+5x+−14=0

Step 2: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=5, c=-14.

x=

−b±√b2−4ac

2a

x=

−(5)±√(5)2−4(1)(−14)

2(1)

x=

−5±√81

2

x=2 or x=−7

Answer:

x=2 or x=−7

5 years ago, the age of a man was 7 times the age of his son. After five years, the age of the man will be 3 times the age of hi
Feliz [49]

Answer:

10 years

40 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let present ag e of son=x

5 years ago age of son=x-5

5 years ago age of man=7(x-5)=7x-35

present age of man=7x-35+5=7x-30

after 5 years

age of son=x+5

age of man=7x-30+5=7x-25

also 7x-25=3(x+5)

7x-25=3x+15

7x-3x=15+25

4x=40

x=10

age of son=10 years

age of man=7*10-30=70-30=40 years
