HELP PLEASE AND THANK YOU!! Two sisters, Julia and Anna, both trade stocks online to supplement their pensions. In 2015 Julia ea

rned $20,000 more than Anna from her trading. For 2015 neither of them reported their investment income to the Canada Revenue Agency. In 2016 Julia made $30,000 more from trading than she had the year before, and Anna made $10,000 more than she had the year before. For 2016 both declared their trading income and paid 50% of it in tax. Their combined income after tax from trading in 2016 was $80,000. How much did Julia make from trading in 2015?

Suppose Julia made x dollars in 2015, and Anna made y dollars.
in 2016, Julia made (x+30,000) and Anna made (y+10,000)
In 2016, after they paid 50% tax, they still had 80,000, which means before tax they had a total of 160,000, so
(x+30,000)+(y+10,000)=160,000
simplify: x+y=120,000
in 2015, Julia earned 20,000 more than Anna, so x=y+20,000. Plug it in the above equation: y+20,000+y=120,000
y=50,000
x=y+20,000=70,000
Julia made 70,000 dollars in 2015.

Can someone please help me?
Ne4ueva [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • x = 6
  • y = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles opposite congruent sides are congruent, so base angles D and F of this isosceles triangle have the same measure:

  y = 55

__

The sum of angles in the triangle is 180°, so ...

  55° +(11x +4)° +55° = 180°

  11x = 66 . . . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 114

  x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 11

The values of x and y are 6 and 55, respectively.

A person invest $1200 in an account that earns 2% interest compound quarterly. Find when the value of the investment reaches $15
Basile [38]

Answer:

After 11 years the value of the investment reaches $1500.00

.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used for finding time (when the value reaches certain amount) is:

A= P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

where A= Future VAlue

P= Principal Value

r= rate of interest (in decimal)

n= no of times investment is compounded

t= time

Putting the values given and finding Time t,

A= $1500

P= $1200

r= 2% or 0.02

n= 4 (compound quarterly)

A= P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

1500= 1200(1+\frac{0.02}{4})^{4t}

Dividing both sides by 1200 and solving 0.02/4 = 0.005

1.25= (1+0.005)^{4t}

1.25= (1.005)^{4t}

Since t is in power we take the logarithm ln on both sides.

The rule of logarithm says that the exponent can be multiplied with the base when taking log

\ln1.25=ln( 1.005)^{4t}\\\ln1.25=4t * ln( 1.005)\\0.22 = 4t * 0.005\\Solving\,\,\\\frac{0.22}{4*0.005} = t\\=> t= 11\, years

At a local coffee shop, three coffees and two muffins cost a total of $7.00. Two coffees and four
rewona [7]

Answer:

$10.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations, so 3c + 2m = 7 and 2c + 4m = 8, where c = the cost of coffees, and m = cost of muffins

To solve multiply the first equation by -2(3c + 2m=7) so you get -6c -4m = -14 now add the two equations

-6c - 4m = -14

2c + 4m = 8   notice that -6c + 2c = -4c and -4m + 4m cancels, then -14+8=-6

so we have -4c = -6 so c = $1.50

To solve for m, substitute c = 1.50 so 3(1.50) + 2m = 7, so solve for m so

4.5 + 2m = 7, 2m = 2.5, so m = $1.25

So now solve the final problem 6(1.50) + 1(1.25) = $10.25
