Answer:
"She invested $2500 in 5% account and $5500 in 8% account"
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount invested in 5% account be "x"
So, the amount invested in 8% account would be "8000 - x"
Interest amount is the percentage multiplied by amount invested. So
Interest of 5% account = 5% of x = 0.05x
Interest of 8% account = 8 % of 8000 - x = 0.08(8000 - x)
Total interest is the sum of these 2 expressions that EQUATES to 565 (given). Let's solve for x:

and thus,
"8000 - x" = 8000 - 2500 = 5500
Hence,
She invested $2500 in 5% account and $5500 in 8% account
Answer:
A. 15
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you need to compare the lengths given to you in the question statement.
Because the lines originate from a single point, they're like triangles. We can easily see a triangle AGF and a triangle ADE, right?
Both triangles are similar triangles, so we can see triangle ADE as a larger version of angle AGF.
They give you the dimension of A F and A E (through A F + F E) to establish a ratio... and they give you A G, asking for A D.
So, A F = 16, A E = 20 (16 + 4), A G = 12.
Since A D is to A G what A E is to A F, we can easily make the following cross-multiplication:

So, A D = (A G * A E)/A F
A D = (12 * 20) / 16 = 15

Answer:
#3.) The initial value of 16 gal at x = 5 minutes means that 16 gallons of water was present 5 minutes after the barrel started leaking.
#4.) Find how many minutes until the barrel is empty of water.
Let y = 0, to solve for time x.
0 = (-2/5)*x + 18
(2/5)*x = 18
x = (5/2)* 18 = 5*9 = 45 minutes
Up to and after 45 minutes, the barrel is empty of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
#2.)
minutes: 5, 10, 15, 20
water(gal): 16, 14, 12, 10
Find slope: slope m = (14 - 16)/(10 - 5) = -2/5
y - 10 = (-2/5)*(x - 20)
y - 10 = (-2/5)* x + 8
y = (-2/5)*x + 18
rate of change slope means that for every minute 2/5 gallons of water is lost
#3.) The initial value of 16 gal at x = 5 minutes means that 16 gallons of water was present 5 minutes after the barrel started leaking.
#4.) Find how many minutes until the barrel is empty of water.

0 = (-2/5)*x + 18
(2/5)*x = 18
x = (5/2)* 18 = 5*9 = 45 minutes
It should be 8 if I’m not mistaken
