You just need to convert the 1/5 into 10 on the denominator to calculate and then add it up.

So 3/10 + 2/10 (same as 1/5) + 1/10 = 6/10
Or 3/5. Mrs jacobs uses 3/5 of her pay on these 3 monthly expenses

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If $10,000 is invested at an interest rate of 2% per year, compounded semiannually, find the value of the investment after the given number of years. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)

a)6 years

b)12 years

c)18 years

***

compound interest formula: A=P(1+r/n)^nt, P=initial investment, r=interest rate, n=number of compounding periods per year, A=amt after t-years.

For given problem:

P=10000

r=.02

n=2

t=6, 12, 18

..

A(6)=10000(1+.02/2)^2*6

A(6)=10000(1.01)^12=11,268.25

A(12)=10000(1.01)^24=12,697.35

A(18)=10000(1.01)^36=14,307.69

To dilute a solution that is 40% saline, a chemist combines it with a solution that is 15% saline. How much of each solution sho
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

60 ml of 40% saline and 90 ml of 15% saline

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the amount of 40% solution x and the amount of 15% solution y.

x + y = 150 -- (1)

0.40x + 0.15y = 150 * 0.25 -- (2)  --- 150 * 0.25 = 37.5

40x + 15y = 3750 (Multiply (2) by 100 to get rid of decimals)

15x + 15y = 2250 -- (3) (Multiply (1) by 15)

25x = 1500           (Subtract (3) from (1)

x = 60

y = 150 - 60 = 90

Simplify the expression 3+2(2p+4t)+6+5p
Monica [59]
Simplify the following:
3 + 2 (2 p + 4 t) + 6 + 5 p
Grouping like terms, 3 + 2 (2 p + 4 t) + 6 + 5 p = 2 (2 p + 4 t) + 5 p + (3 + 6):
2 (2 p + 4 t) + 5 p + (3 + 6)
3 + 6 = 9:
2 (2 p + 4 t) + 5 p + 9
2 (2 p + 4 t) = 4 p + 8 t:
4 p + 8 t + 5 p + 9
Grouping like terms, 4 p + 8 t + 5 p + 9 = 8 t + (4 p + 5 p) + 9:
8 t + (4 p + 5 p) + 9
4 p + 5 p = 9 p:
Answer:  8 t + 9 p + 9
