Step-by-step answer:
Answer to problems of this kind is the reciprocal of the harmonic mean of the time required.
We need to find the average of the speeds, not the average of the time.
The respective speeds are 1/3 and 1/4.
The average of the speeds is therefore (1/3+1/4)/2 = 7/24 (harmonic mean of the time taken).
The time required is therefore the reciprocal of the unit speed,
T = 1/(7/24) = 24/7 = 3 3/7 minutes, or approximately 3.43 minutes.
Answer:
7 times
Step-by-step explanation:
30 miles per 1 gallon
Car holds 12 gallons
30x12=360
2520/360=7
The applicable formula is
A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1+r/12)^(-12n))
where P is the principal amount,
r is the annual interest rate (compounded monthly), and
n is the number of years.
Using the formula, we find
A = 84,400*(0.04884/12)/(1 -(1+0.04884/12)^(-12*15))
= 84,400*0.00407/(1 -1.00407^-180)
= 343.508/0.518627
≈ 662.34
The monthly payment on a mortgage of $84,400 for 15 years at 4.884% will be
$662.34
If you increase a number by 4.5%, then you're adding 4.5% of that number to 100% of that number. So essentially you just multiply 14187.13 by 104.5%, or 1.045 to find the answer, which is 14,825.55.
Answer:
She read 15 fiction books
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 10 x 3 = 30
so she reads 30 non fiction books and she reads half as many fiction books as she reads nonfiction.
Divide 30/2=15
