The amount invested in stocks is $2600 and the amount invested in bonds is $2100.

The total sum of money I invested is $4700. I invest x in stocks and y in bonds. This can be represented with this equation:

x + y = 4700 equation 1

The total interest I earned is $180. The interest rate on stocks is 4.5% and the interest rate on bonds is 3%. This can be represented with the equation

0.045x + 0.03y = 180 equation 2

These two equations are simultaneous equations and can be solved using the elimination method.

x + y = 4700 equation 1

0.045x + 0.03y = 180 equation 2

The first step is to multiply equation 1 by 0.045

0.045 + 0.045y = 211.50 equation 3

The second step is to subtract equation 2 from 3

31.50 = 0.015y

Divide both sides by y

y = $2100

To determine the value of x, substitute for x in equation 1

x + $2100 = $4700

x = $4700 - $2100

x = $2600

A mass attached to a spring is pulled toward the floor so that its height above the floor is 10 mm (millimeters). The mass is th
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

a) The mass is released at t = 0 when h is minimum. Half a cycle later h reaches its maximum and another half a cycle it reaches its minimum again. Hence over one cycle, h varies with t as follows:

b) According to the graph obtained in part a), h(t) could be modeled by a cosine function shifted (translated) vertically up and horizontally to the right. Hence

Perform the indicated operation g(x)=-x-3 h(x) = x 2+X Find (goh) (x)​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

(g\circ h)(x)=-x^2-x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the two functions:

g(x)=-x-3\text{ and } h(x)=x^2+x

And we want to find:

(g\circ h)(x)

This is the same thing as:

=g(h(x))

So, substitute h(x) into g(x):

g(x)=-x-3\\g(h(x))=-(x^2+x)-3

Distribute the negative:

g(h(x))=-x^2-x-3

And we're done!

So:

(g\circ h)(x)=-x^2-x-3

Four friends went to the movies each ticket cost $8 and each person bought popcorn and a soda for $5 how much did they spend in
Neporo4naja [7]
Answer: m = $52

Explanation:
Tickets (t) = $8
Popcorn & Soda (s)= $5
Friends = 4
Since all friends bought the same thing the equation will be set as
4(t +s) = m OR 4t +4s = m
Using substitution, you plug each variable
t = 8 and s = 5
4((8) + (5)) = m
4(8+5) = m => 4(13) =m => 52=m
OR
4(8) + 4(5) = m => 32 + 20 = m =>
52 =m

Find each percent change. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent. State if it is an increase or decrease. From 79 miles to 84 m
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

the answer is d.

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you want to use the formula,

new value - original value

<u>____________________</u>

         original value              * 100

you see that 84 is the new value and 79 would be the original value. substitute the numbers in. this is a increase since you will get a positive value.

84 - 79

<u>______</u>

   79      * 100

now we solve it.

5

<u>__</u>

79  * 100

you can either solve the fraction first then multiply that by 100 or multiply the numerator by 100 first then divide that by 79, each way works.

500

<u>____</u>

 79   =  approximately 6.3% increase (this is not a exact value, just rounded)

      or

5

<u>__</u>

79  = approximately 0.063 (this is not a exact value, just rounded)

0.063 * 100 = 6.3% increase
