-1 17/20 and -1 8/10 can be compared easily if we give them common denominators. If we multiply the second fraction by 2, both fractions will have a denominator of 20.

8 * 2 = 16
10 * 2 = 20
New fraction: 16/20

-1 17/20 vs. - 1 16/20

-1 16/20 (-1 8/10) is greater. (For negative numbers, you can tell which one is greater by determining which one is closest to zero.)

Can you help find the inverse of the functions? (15 points)

anyanavicka [17]

hi so for the first exercise it’s the 3rd and for the second exercise it’s the first

Step-by-step When you have to find the inverses of numbers the sign ( -or+ ) never change see: the inverse of 2 is 1/2 or the inverse of (x+7)/(3x-5) is (3x-5)(x+7), hope you’ll understand : )

Mary who is 13 years old wants to have $8500 to travel to Argentina when she’s 21 years old. She currently has $6439 in savings

marishachu [46]

Answer:

a; she will have $8812

b: It will be enough for her trip

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating how much a certain value in a savings account that is earning an interest that is compounded annually will be worth.

To calculate this, we use the compound interest formula;

A = P( $(1+r/n)^{nt}$

Where A is the amount after that number of years which of course we want to calculate

P is the principal amount which is the amount we are investing which is $6439 according to the question

r is the interest rate which is 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

t is the time which is 8 years

n is 1 which is the number of times interest will be compounded annually

We plug these values as follows;

A = 6439(1 + 0.04/1)^8

A = 6439(1.04)^8

A = $8,812.22

This amount is greater then the needed $8,500 for the trip and of course it will be enough
