Mara found the length of time of an investment. The principal of the investment was $4,300, the interest rate was 6.2 percent, and the interest was $2,666. Mara made an error in her work.

I = p r t. 2666 = (4300) (0.062) t. 2666 = (266.6) t. StartFraction 266.6 over 2666 EndFraction = t. 0.1 = t.

Answers

Answer 1

well, 6.2% of 4,300 can't be over half. she has made a calculation error, and the real answer is (this is where the mistake was made) 4,300 * 0.062 (not 6.2, because percents are always divided by 100 to make them into a usable number), which is equal to $266.60.

Amelie is shopping for children's books and puzzle books. She wants to purchase at least 2 more children's books than puzzle books, but she can afford no more than 15 items total. If x represents the number of childrens books and y represents the number of puzzle books Amelie purchases, which point lies in the solution set?​

Answers

x = 9
y = 6

Step by step:

Divide 15 by 2: 15 ÷ 2 = 7.5
Subtract 0.5 from 7.5 (this will later be added back): 7.5 - 0.5 = 7
Subtract 1 from 7 (she wants to buy at least 2 more children books): 7 - 1 = 6
Subtract 6 from 15 (6 being the number of puzzle books, 15 being the total number of items): 15 - 6 = 9 (number of children books)

#30 Tickets to a school play cost $2 if bought in advance and $3 at the door. By selling all 400 tickets, $1,030 was

collected. Let x represent the number of tickets sold at the door.

In terms of x. how many tickets were sold in advance?

Answers

Answer:

170 tickets were sold in advance

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the = number of tickets sold at the door.

Let y represent the = number of tickets sold in advance

Tickets to a school play cost $2 if bought in advance and $3 at the door. By selling all 400 tickets, $1,030 was

collected.

Hence, we have two equations

x + y = 400 tickets

$3 × x + $2 × y = $1,030

x + y = 400.... Equation 1

x = 400 - y

3x + 2y = 1030........ Equation 2

Substitute 400 - y for x in Equation 2

3(400 - y) + 2y = 1030

1200 - 3y + 2y = 1030

Collect like terms

-y = 1030 -1200

-y = -170

y = 170

Since y represent the number of tickets sold in advance, therefore, 170 tickets were sold in advance.

2x+3=x-4

Answers

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

2 x + 3 = x - 4

Hint: | Move terms with x to the left-hand side.

Subtract x from both sides:

(2 x - x) + 3 = (x - x) - 4

Hint: | Combine like terms in 2 x - x.

2 x - x = x:

x + 3 = (x - x) - 4

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

x - x = 0:

x + 3 = -4

Hint: | Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x + (3 - 3) = -3 - 4

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

3 - 3 = 0:

x = -3 - 4

Hint: | Evaluate -3 - 4.

-3 - 4 = -7:

Find the zeros of the function. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.
f(x) = (x+6)^2 - 49
lesser x=
greater x =

Answers

Answer:

Lesser x is -13.

Greater x is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function:

[tex]f(x)=(x+6)^2-49[/tex]

And we want to find the zeros of the function.

So, set f(x) to 0 and solve for x:

[tex](x+6)^2-49=0[/tex]

Add 49 to both sides:

[tex](x+6)^2=49[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides. Since we're taking an even root, we will need plus/minus:

[tex]x+6=\pm 7[/tex]

Subtract 6 from both sides:

[tex]x=\pm7-6[/tex]

Evaluate for each case:

Case 1; 7 is positive:

[tex]x=7-6=1[/tex]

Case 2; 7 is negative:

[tex]x=-7-6=-13[/tex]

So, our zeros are:

[tex]\{x|-13, 1\}[/tex]

Our lesser x is -13, and our greater x is 1.

And we're done!

The prediction equation y = 5.92x + 119.21 models the median selling price, in thousands of dollars, of new homes in a certain area since 1995. Predict the median selling price in 2015.(Do not separate the numbers

Answers

Answer:

$237.61

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the function to predict the price is

y = 5.92x + 119.21

x= the number of year,

given that we are predicting from 1995-2015

the difference is 20years

So put x=20 in the expression we have

y = 5.92(20) + 119.21

y=118.4+119.21

y=237.61

the median price is $237.61

Because of the y intercept, you would first plot a point at (0,2). This means that you would put the point when x does not from the origin (middle of the lines) and 2 points up from it. After, for every 2 points going to the right, you go only 1 up on y. This is because the slope is 1/2. I recommend you watch Khan Academy.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula is this: Tn = a + (n - 1)*(d), where 'a' is the first term and 'd' is the common difference.

The first term is given to you and that is -6.

The common difference is -4 because:

d = -10 - (-6)

d = -10 + 6

d = -4

Hence: Tn = -6 + (n - 1)(-4)

Sarah took the advertising department from her company on a round trip to meet with a potential client. Including Sarah a total of 10 people took the trip. She was able to purchase coach tickets for $230 and first class tickets for $1290. She used her total budget for airfare for the trip, which was $7600. How many first class tickets did she buy? How many coach tickets did she buy?

Answers

You can set up a system of equations for this problem. Let x = number of coach tickets and y = number of first class tickets. Then:

330x + 1220y = 12730 (cost of coach tickets plus cost of first class tickets is total budget)

x + y = 17 (number of coach tickets plus number of first class tickets is total number of people)

Solve the second equation for y to get y = 17 - x, then plug that into the first equation and solve for x:

330x + 1220(17 - x) = 12730

330x + 20740 - 1220x = 12730

-890x + 20740 = 12730

-890x = -8010

x = 9

Sarah bought x = 9 coach tickets. Plug that into the second equation and solve for y:

9 + y = 17

y = 8

Sarah bought y = 8 first class tickets.
