Given that Trent's watch runs at half the speed it should run, this implies that
for every hour passed, his watch moves by half an hour.
Hence, for every half-hour passed, Trent's watch moves by 15 minutes.
Hence, when the real time is 10:30 am, Trent's watch will show 9:15 am.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of Interest = $36
Rate of interest = 3% per annum
Total time period for which the money was invested = 3 years
Let us assume the Principal amount = x
Then
Interest = Principal * Rate of Interest * time
36 = x * 3% * 3
36 = 9x/100
36 * 100 = 9x
3600 = 9x
x = 3600/9
= 400
So the initial sum of the money that was invested was $400.
Answer: 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4-1/2=1/4
Answer:
b. {-9, 3}.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 6x - 27 = 0
We need 2 numbers whose product is -27 and whose sum is + 6.
These are + 9 and - 3. So the factors are:
(x - 3)(x + 9) = 0
(x - 3) = 0 or (x + 9) = 0
x = 3 or -9.
