Answer:930 Hope this Helps :D

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given problem:

Let the balances of the saving accounts be (x) and (y)

Leah has two savings accounts with balances totaling $8,000

so,

x+y=8000 (1)

She withdrew 15% from one and 40% from the other. If she has $6,350 remaining in the accounts

So, The remaining from the accounts will be (1 - 15%) and ( 1 - 40%)

that will give the decimals: 0.85 and 0.6

so, we can write the following equation:

0.85x+0.6y=6350 (2)

Now, solve the equations (1) and (2) to find (x) and (y)

From equation (1)

y=8000-x (3)

Substitute with (y) from equation (3) into equation (2)

0.85x+0.6*(8000)-x =6350

Now solve the equation

0.85x+0.6*8000-0.6x=6350

0.85x-0.6+4800+6350

0.25x=6350-4800

0.25x=1550

x=6200

Substitute with (x) into equation (3) to find (y)

y=8000-6200=1800

So, the larger account = x = 6200

and the smaller account = y = 1800



Now, we will answer the question, how much money did she withdraw from the account with the larger balance?

so, the answer will be: 15% of x = 0.15 * 6200 = 930



So, the answer will be $930

How many terms are in the following sequence? 131072, ..., 8, 4, 2
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

  17 terms

Step-by-step explanation:

131072 = 2^17

8 = 2^3

4 = 2^2

2 = 2^1

Apparently, the sequence is powers of 2 from 17 down to 1, so there are 17 terms in the sequence.

Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b,
expeople1 [14]
For finding the value of b, we must consider that Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). With this condition y = mx + b, can be written 3=4m+ b (because line passes through M(4,3) ) and 12=7m+b, b ( because line passes through M(7,12)). We have a system of equation 4m+ b=3 7m+b=12 For solving this, 4m+b- (7m+b)= 3-12, it is equivalent to -3m= -9 and then m=3, if m=3 so 4x3 +b =3 implies b= 3 -12= -9, so the value of b= -9 <span>

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! I NEED CORRECT ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE!!!
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle DEF is a right angle triangle.

From the given right angle triangle,

DE represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

With ∠E as the reference angle,

EF represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

DF represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine EF, we would apply

trigonometric ratio

Cos θ = opposite side/hypotenuse. Therefore,

Cos 49 = EF/8

EF = 8Cos49 = 8 × 0.6561

EF = 5.2488

Rounding to the nearest tenth, it becomes 5.2

The cost y (in dollars) of renting a segway for x hours is y=30x+25. Find the initial fee and the cost per hour.
Hitman42 [59]

Given:

The cost y (in dollars) of renting a segway for x hours is

y=30x+25

To find:

The initial fee and the cost per hour.

Solution:

We have,

y=30x+25       ...(i)

The slope intercept form of a linear equation is

y=mx+b      ...(ii)

where, m is slope is b is y-intercept or initial value.

From (i) and (ii), we get

m=30,b=25

The value of m is 30, so the slope is 30. It means cost per hour is $30.

The value of b is 25, so y-intercept is 25. It means the initial fee is $25.
