3: independent
4: dependent
Answer:
There is no solution to the problem
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the solutions to the problem you can write the situation in an algebraic form.
You have that a number is equal to twice a smaller number plus 3. This can be written as follow:
(1)
where x is the number and y is the smaller number
Furthermore, the same number x is equal to twice the sum of the smaller number and 1, which can be written as follow:
(2)
To find the solution you equal the equation (1) with (2), and you solve for y:


You obtain an inconsistency, hence, the situation of the problem does not have solution
A) 3, 5, 6
c squared = a squared + b squared
6 squared = 5 squared + 3 squared
36 = 25 + 9
36 ≠ 34 (not a right triangle)
b) 13, 12, 5
c squared = a squared + b squared
13 squared = 12 squared + 5 squared
169 = 144 + 25
169 = 169 (is a right triangle)
c) 17, 15, 9
c squared = a squared + b squared
17 squared = 15 squared + 9 squared
289 = 225 + 81
289 ≠ 306 (not a right triangle)
d) 12, 8, 6
c squared = a squared + b squared
12 squared = 8 squared + 6 squared
144 = 64 + 36
144 ≠ 100 (not a right triangle)
hope this helps!!
Interest depends a lot on the compounding period.
Since the period is exactly 4 months, we assume
APR=8%
monthly interest=8/12%=0.00666667
Interest due in 4 months
=7000[(1+0.08/12)^4-1]
=7000[0.0269345]
=$188.54
