A snail can move 1/30 miles in 1/3 hour. How fast does a snail move in miles /hours

bekas [8.4K]

Answer: 1/10 miles/hour

To find how fast a snail moves in miles per hour, we can find the unit rate using a proportion.

<h2>Unit Rate</h2>

The unit rate is the amount per one unit. In this problem, the unit is for one hour. One way to find the unit rate is by using a proportion.

<h2>Proportions</h2>

Proportions look like two fractions set equal to each other with a missing variable to solve.

<h3>State our variables</h3>

let <em>x</em> be the number of miles per hour

<h3>Write a proportion</h3>

The first fraction has a number for the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom), because the question gives us the information. The second fraction has a missing value, <em>x</em>, that we are solving for. We can write <em>x</em> in the numerator.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{x\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

<h2>Solve</h2>

We can solve by finding the scale factor. The scale factor is the number we can multiply the numerator by to find <em>x</em>.

<h3>Find the scale factor</h3>

Start with the proportion.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{x\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

To find the scale factor,

Take the denominator from the fraction with a variable: $1\ hr$
Take the denominator from the fraction that has no variable: $\frac{1}{3}\ hr$
Divide step 1 by step 2 and solve: $1\ hr\ \div\ \frac{1}{3}\ hr = 3$

Our scale factor is <u>3</u>.

<h3>Solve for x</h3>

We can find <em>x</em> by multiplying the numerator in the first fraction by the scale factor. This is because <em>x</em> is also in the numerator.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{(\frac{1}{30}\ mi)*3}{1\ hr}}$

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{\frac{3}{30}\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

Simplify 3/30 by dividing the fraction by 3.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{\frac{1}{10}\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

x = 1/10

∴ a snail moves 1/10 miles per hour.

Dean took out a 10-year loan for $40,000 at an APR of 4% compounded monthly. What will his balance be after he has made exactly

damaskus [11]

Answer:

The balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments is $56881.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Dean took out a 10-year loan for $40,000 at an APR of 4% compounded monthly.

To find : What will his balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments?

Solution :

Formula of monthly payment ,

$M=\frac{\text{Amount}}{\text{Discount factor}}$

Discount factor $D=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}$

Where, Amount = $40,000

Rate r= 4% compounded monthly

$i=\frac{4}{100}=0.04$

Time = 10 years

$n=10\times12=120$

Now, put all the values we get,

$D=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}$

$D=\frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-120}}{0.04}$

$D=\frac{1-(1.04)^{-120}}{0.04}$

$D=\frac{1-0.00903}{0.04}$

$D=\frac{0.9909}{0.04}$

$D=24.7725$

$M=\frac{\text{Amount}}{\text{Discount factor}}$

$M=\frac{40000}{24.7725}$

$M=1614.69$

Half of the monthly payment is $807.345

Payment for 10 years is $807.345\times 120=96881.4$

The balance is $96881.4-$40000=$56881.4

Therefore, The balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments is $56881.4.
