Answer:
- $17,500 at 8%
- $17,500 at 14%
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction that needs to be invested at the higher rate is ...
(11% - 8%)/(14% -8%) = 3%/6% = 1/2
Half the money should be invested at each of the rates:
$17,500 for 8% return
$17,500 for 14% return.
_____
If you let x represent the amount at the higher rate, then the total return is ...
14%x + 8%(35000 -x) = 11%(35000)
(14% -8%)x = (11% -8%)(35000) . . . . subtract 8%·35000
x = (11% -8%)/(14% -8%)×35000 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Note that this formula is exactly the one we started with, above.
<span>here we can use Pythogoras' theorem.
in right angled triangles the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides.
hypotenuse is 19 cm. One side is 13 cm and we need to find the length of the third side.
19</span>²<span> = 13</span>²<span> + X</span>²<span>
X - length of the third side
361 = 169 + X</span>²<span>
X</span>²<span> = 361 - 169
X</span>²<span> = 192
X = 13.85 the length of third side rounded off to the nearest tenth is 13.9 cm</span>
Answer:
3.825
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to move the decimal two over on 45%. If you move the decimal over two spaces to the right, it would be 0.45. In math, of means to multiply, so then you multiply 0.45 and 8.5 to get your answer of 3.825.
