Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\frac{2x}{3} + 5 = \frac{11x}{15} + 14$

Multiply both sides of the equation by the common denominator :

$\frac{2x \times 15}{3} + 5 \times 15 = \frac{11x \times 15}{15} + 14 \times 15$

After doing maximum cancellations,

$= > 10x + 5 \times 15 = 11x + 14 \times 15$

$= > 10x + 75 = 11x + 210$

$= > 10x - 11x = 210 - 75$

$= > - x = 135$

$= > x = - 135$

Hence, value of x is -135

We invested $10000 into two bank accounts. One account earns 14% per year, the other account earns 8% per year. How much did we

Blababa [14]

Answer:

$7,300 was invested in the 14% account while $2,700 was invested in the 8% interest account

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested in first account be $x while the amount for second account is $y

Mathematically;

x + y = 10,000 •••••••••(i)

Interest on first account

= 14% of x = 14/100 * x

Interest on second account

= 8% of y= 8/100 * y

Adding all together will give total

14/100 * x + 8/100 * y = 1238

Multiply through by 100

14x + 8y = 123800 •••••••(ii)

From equation 1, x = 10,000 - y

Insert this into second equation

14(10,000-y) + 8y = 123,800

140,000 - 14y + 8y = 123,800

140,000 - 6y = 123,800

6y = 140,000 - 123,800

6y = 16,200

y = 16,200/6

y = $2,700

Recall

x + y = 10,000

x = 10000 - y

x = 10,000 - 2,700

x = $7,300

Mr dambek had $90 to spend at the bulls game he spent 31/45 on his ticket the. He spent 3/7 of his remaining money at the conces

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

He does not have enough money to buy the hat.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out how much he spent on the ticket:

$90 \times {31 \over 45}=2 \times 31=62$

He spent $62 on the ticket, so he has $90 - $62 = $28 remaining. Now find out how much of that he spent at the concession stand:

$28 \times {3 \over 7}=4 \times 3=12$

He spent $12 at the concession stand, so he has $28 - $12 = $16 remaining. He does not have enough to buy the $18 hat.

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The ball reaches a height of 29.25 ft after 1.125 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum height of a parabola can always be found by looking for the vertex. You can find the x value (or in this case the t value) of a vertex by using -b/2a in which a is the coefficient of x^2 and b is the coefficient of x.

-b/2a

-(36)/2(-16)

-36/-32

1.125 seconds

Now to find the height, we input that value in for t

h = -16t^2 + 36t + 9

h = -16(1.125)^2 + 26(1.125) + 9

29.25 feet
