a) Sammie earns
£320×4% = £12.80
each year.
Joel earns
£420×3% = £12.60
each year.
Sammie earns the most interest.
b) Joel's interest after 5 years is
£12.60×5 = £63
so the total amount of money Joel will have is
£420 +63 = £483
Answer: 35 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
hypotenuse = 5*y in
cathetus 1 = (x + 8) in
cathetus 2 = (x + 3) in
The perimeter of the triangle is 76 inches, then:
5*y + (x + 8) + (x + 3) = 76
5*y + 2*x + 13 = 76
We also know that the length of the hypotenuse minus the length of the shorter leg is 17 in.
The shorter leg is x + 3, then:
5*y - (x + 3) = 17
Then we have the equations:
5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76
5*y - (x + 3) = 17
With only these two we can solve the system, first we need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, i will isolate x in the second equation.
x = 5*y - 3 - 17 = 5*y - 20
x = 5*y - 20
Now we can replace this in the other equation, we get:
5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76
5*y + 2*(5*y - 20) + 11 = 76
15*y - 40 + 13 = 76
15*y - 29 = 76
15*y = 76 + 29 = 105
and remember that the hypotenuse is equal to 5*y, then we want to get:
3*(5*y) = 105
5*y = 105/3 = 35
5*y = 35
Then te length of the hypotenuse is 35 inches.
Answer:
$123.25
Step-by-step explanation:
A selling price reflecting a 45% markup can be found by multiplying the wholesale price ($85) by (1 + 0.45), or 1.45:
1.45($85) = $123.25
Answer:
2 1/4 cups
Step by step:
First we can set up a ratio (1:4). Then we can divide both by 4 to find how many cups of almonds per cup of trail mix. We get 0.25:1. Multiply both by 9, and there’s the answer (2.25:9).
Hope this helped <3
