Answer:

  • $200 at 5%
  • $800 at 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at the higher rate. Then 1000-x is the amount invested at the lower rate. The total earnings are ...

  0.05(1000-x) +0.06x = 58

  50 +0.01x = 58 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.01x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 50

  x = 800 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 100; amount at 6%

  (1000-x) = 200 . . . . . . . find the amount invested at 5%

Lara invested $200 at 5% and $800 at 6%.

ABCD rhombus, AC:BD = 4:3 Perimeter ABCD = 20 cm Find: Area of ABCD
AlladinOne [14]
Given that the perimeter of rhombus ABCD is 20 cm, the length of the sides will be:
length=20/4=5 cm
the ratio of the diagonals is 4:3, hence suppose the common factor on the diagonals is x such that:
AC=4x and BD=3x
using Pythagorean theorem, the length of one side of the rhombus will be:
c^2=a^2+b^2
substituting our values we get:
5²=(2x)²+(1.5x)²
25=4x²+2.25x²
25=6.25x²
x²=4
x=2
hence the length of the diagonals will be:
AC=4x=4×2=8 cm
BD=3x=3×2=6 cm
Hence the area of the rhombus wll be:
Area=1/2(AC×BD)
=1/2×8×6
=24 cm²

A 20-foot flagpole casts a 6-foot Shadow how tall is a nearby building that casts a 30-foot shadow
Viefleur [7K]

The building would be 100ft tall. You have to take 20/6 = ?/30 The difference between 6 and 30 is x5. Then all you have to do is 20x5 and you get 100ft.

if a one bedroom apartment that rents for $450 in Detroit rents for 250% of that price in manhattan, what is the rent in Manhatt
lesya [120]

Answer:

$1125

Step-by-step explanation:

To find percentage of something, we always take the percentage, convert it to decimal by dividing by 100, and then multiply that decimal with the number given.

Here, we want to find 250% of $450. First, lets convert 250% to decimal:

250/100 = 2.5

So, 250% = 2.5

Now we multiply this with $450 to find rent in Manhattan:

2.5 * 450 = $1125

That's a whooping price of $1125 in Manhattan!!

the number of bacteria in a sample after x days is represented using the equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=b%3D50%2C000
KATRIN_1 [288]
Initial, x = 0, b = 50000

day 1, x = 1, b = 50000 (1.05)^-1

day 2, x = 2, b = 50000 (1.05) =^-2

day 2 / day 1 = 1.05^-2 / 1.05^-1 = 1.05^-1 = 0.952

Which means that the number of bacteria decreased 4.8%
