Answer:  303.870087962229

Simplify ≈303.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Grows 9.5%→r=0.095 Divide by 100

Grows every 2 decades: exponent of t2

(where t is in decades)

Write a function:

f(t)=240(1+0.095) ^t/2 Percent change every 2 decades

52 years→52/10→5.2 decades There are 10 years in a decade

Plug in t=5.2

f(5.2)=240(1+0.095) 5.2/2

Answer:  303.870087962229

≈303.87

Round to the nearest hundredth

lorasvet [3.4K]
Since y+8 is positive, you don't have to find the absolute value since the absolute value is y+8. all you have to do is find a number that makes the statement true for y. the symbol between next to the 3 asks for a number that is greater or equal to 3. So your answer would be

Financial planners recommend that families save about 5% of their take-home pay. Ed and Sherrie save $90 each pay period from th
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Ed and Sheerie save 7.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

Ed and Sherrie save $90 each pay period from their combined paychecks, which total $1200. What percent do Ed and Sherrie save?

How much of $1200 is $90? $1200 is 100% = 1, $90 = x. So

$1200 - 1

$90 - x

1200x = 90

x = \frac{90}{1200}

x = 0.075

Ed and Sheerie save 7.5%.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

x = 38

y = 41

z = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y + z = =202

y = x + 3

z = 3y = 3(x + 3) = 3x + 9

<u>x</u> + <u>y</u> + <u>z</u> = <u>x</u> + <u>x + 3</u> + <u>3x + 9</u> = 5x + 12 = 202

5x + 12 = 202

5x = 190

x = 38

y = x + 3 = 41

z = 3y = 123
