Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus on what it is saying. It is saying that 5x IS LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 15.

So we are looking for smaller numbers, that is, values of x, in order to make this statement true.

So on a number line we are looking for the left part shaded in.

Furthermore... notice that the sign has "or equal to". Thus the circle is going to be shaded in. The circle is not going to be open and empty. Through this we have eliminated answers B and C.

So the answer is A because— remember— the left side of the number line is shaded. It encompasses negative numbers. A negative number times 5 will definitely be less than 15.

Answer:

60ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's x, y be the width and length of the surrounding rectangle. Since the area is 450 sq feet, this means xy = 450 or y = 450/x

The perimeter of this rectangle is (since there are 3 sides only)

f(x,y) = 2x + y

This is something we need to minimize. We can start by substituting y = 450/x

f(x) = 2x + 450/x

Let's take the first derivative of this function and set it to 0

$f'(x) = 2 - \frac{450}{x^2} = 0$

$2 = \frac{450}{x^2}$

$x^2 = 450 / 2 = 225$

$x = \sqrt{225} = 15ft$

y = 450 / 15 = 30ft

so the minimum perimeter that needs taping over is

f(x,y) = 2x + y = 2*15 + 30 = 60ft

How long will it take for the balance of an account to double if the savings account earns 0.75% annual interest compounded mont

spin [16.1K]

Let the amount deposited (principal) be x, then the amount after the required time = 2x.
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt: where A is the future value = 2x, P is the principal = x, r is the rate = 0.75%, n is the number of accumulation in a year = 12, t is the number of years.

2x = x(1 + 0.0075/12)^12t
2 = (1 + 0.000625)^12t
log 2 = 12t log (1.000625)
log 2 / log (1.000625) = 12t
1109.38 = 12t
t = 92 years
