240 plz like my awnser it would mean alot
With what you've jus given me, no. is there an equation or something to go along with this question?
Answer:
I'm just guessing that it is. That question is on my math homework and the definition in the back of my math book says: A decimal in which one or more digits repeat infinitely and I put yes. Because they repeat.
Answer:
$4000
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming a = money invested at 9%
Assuming b = money invested at 8%
then we can form am equation from the question given
1) a + b = $10000, also
0.09a + 0.08b = $860 -> multiply by 100
2) 9a + 8b = $86000
Next we try to solve both equations simultaneously. We multiply both the left hand side and the right hand side of the first equation by 8. We have
3) 8a + 8b = $80000, now we subtract 3 from 2
9a + 8b = $86000
-8a - 8b = -$80000
a = $6000.
Then, we plug this in any of the first 2 equations, to get b
9 * $6000 + 8b = $86000
$54000 + 8b = $86000
8b = $86000 - $54000
8b = $32000
b = $32000/8
b = $4000.
Therefore, he invested $4000 at 8%
