Tyrone had $17,000 to invest. He invested part of that amount at 2.5% annual interest for one year and the other part at 6.5% annual interest for one year. The amount of interest earned for both investments was $550. Let x represent the amount of money invested in the first account and y represent the amount of money invested in the second account. Which system of equations best represents the situation?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The system of equations best represents the situation

x + y = 17,000.... Equation 1

0.025x + 0.065y = 550... Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x represent the amount of money invested in the first account and

y represent the amount of money invested in the second account.

We are told that:

Tyrone had $17,000 to invest.

Hence,

x + y = $17,000

x + y = 17,000..... Equation 1

We also known that:

He invested part of that amount at 2.5% annual interest for one year and the other part at 6.5% annual interest for one year. The amount of interest earned for both investments was $550

The formula for Interest =

Principal(Amount invested) × Rate × Time.

Hence:

25% × x + 6.5% × y = 550

0.025x + 0.065y = 550... Equation 2

The system of equations best represents the situation

x + y = 17,000.... Equation 1

0.025x + 0.065y = 550... Equation 2

Pablo is riding his bike. The number of revolutions (turns) his wheels make varies directly with the distance he travels. See the graph below.(a) How many revolutions does Pablo make per foot of distance traveled? (b) What is the slope of the graph?

Answers

Answer:

A general line can be written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

if we know that the line passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope will be:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

In this case, we can see that the line passes through the points (0,0) and (4,2) then the slope will be:

a = (2 - 0)/(4 - 0) = 2

Then the equation is:

y = 2*x + b

And because we have the point (0, 0), we know that the y-intercept is equal to zero, then the equation is:

y = 2*x

This means that Pablo does 2 revolutions per feet, and we already found that the slope of the equation is 2.

In a high school, 28% of the school’s population is seventeen years old. Of the students who are seventeen years old, 44% play a sport. One student at the high school is chosen at random to represent the school at a community event. What is the probability that the selected student will be seventeen years old and not play a sport?

Answers

Answer:

15.68%

Step-by-step

Since 44% of the 28% play sport subtract 44 from 100 to see how many of the 28% do not play sports and you get 56%. So multiply 56% and 28% and you get 15.68%.

O A. climbing a rock wall
B. a water wheel in a dry river
C. kicking a soccer ball
D. carrying a bicycle down the stairs

Answers

Answer:

B. A water wheel in a dry river

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is said to be done when a force moves a body or an object through a certain distance in the direction of the force. Thus for work to be done, force and distance are required.

i.e Work done = Force x distance

It is measured in Joules.

Also, the work done by an object could be a measured of potential energy.

So that,

Work done = potential energy = mass x gravitational force x height

Considering the collage in the question, since the water wheel is in a dry river no work is done. Water wheel is a device that functions through the flow of water body, thus causing its rotation.

The amount of calories you consume after eating x pieces of candy is represented by the function. y=135x. Find the domain of the function and determine whether it is discrete or continuous.

Answers

Answer:

The function is:

y = 150*x

where y is the number of calories consumed, and x is the number of pieces of candy consumed.

Now, the domain of a function is the possible values of x that you can input in the function.

For this particular case you can have:

x = 0 (no pieces candy)

x = 1 (one piece of candy)

x = 2 (two pieces of candy)

Notice that x can be only whole numbers because, in principle, you can't eat a fraction of a piece of candy.

So we only use x = whole numbers.

Then the domain of the function is equal to all the natural numbers plus the zero, or:

D = {x ∈ N ∪ {0}}

"x belongs to the union between the set of the natural numbers and the zero"

At 10 m tall farmhouse is located 28.0 metres away from a tree with a an Eagles nest. The angle of the elevation from the roof of the farmhouse to the Eagles nest is 30
What is the height of the Eagles nest?

A 16m
B 24m
C 26m
D 48m

Answers

Answer:

26m

Step-by-step explanation:

opp represents the height of the nest from the angle of elevation,adj represents the distance of the farmhouse from the building . Therefore,according to Tan rule (TOA)

Tan30° = opp/adj

opp= tan30° x adj

opp= tan30° x adj

opp = 0.5774 x 28

0pp= 16.12m

the height of the eagle's nest from the ground = 16m + 10m(since the farm house is 10m tall)

the height ...= 26m

A tile pattern has 5 tiles in figure 0 and adds 7 tiles in each figure, write a linear equation that represents this pattern

Answers

Answer:

The equation is:

y = 7x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Figure 0 = 5 tiles

Figure 1 = 5+7 = 12 tiles

Given that it adds 7 titles in each figure. Thus, the rate of change = 7 tiles

Thus, the equation is:

y = 7x + 5

Here

7 is the rate change or slope of the equation.

VERIFICATION:

setting x = 0 to determine the tiles in figure 0

y = 7x + 5

y = 7(0) + 5

y = 5

Thus, the figure 0 has 5 tiles

setting x = 1 to determine the tiles in figure 1

y = 7x + 5

y = 7(1) + 5

y = 7 + 5

y = 12

Thus, the figure 0 has 12 tiles    (5 plus 7 added)

If you take a number multiply by 7 then takeaway 1. You get the same as if you took the number multiply by 5 then takeaway 8. What is the number?

Answers

7x - 1 = 5x - 8
Minus 5x on each side
2x -1 = -8
Plus 1 on each side
2x = -7
Divide by 2 on each side
x = -7/2

The number is most likely -7/2

Answer:

x = -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we create the equation.

Let x = the unknown number

7x-1 = 5x - 8

Add 8 to both sides

7x + 7 = 5x

Subtract 7x

7 = -2x

Divide by 2

-7/2 = x

-3.5 = x

Add 5 on both sides to isolate x:

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have:

Han starts with $100 in his account. He spends $15 each week on lunches.

Lin starts with $25 in her account and does not spend any of it. Her family adds $10 each week to her account.

For hen:

x be the number of weeks

Total amount left = 100 - 15x

Plug x = 4

Total amount left = $40

For Lin:

y be the number of weeks.

Total amount = 25 + 10y

Plug y = 4

Total amount = 25+40 = $65

Lin has more money in his account.

To have the same amount:

100 - 15x = 25 + 10y

x = y

100 - 15x = 25 + 10x

x = 3 weeks

Thus, Lin has more money in his account, and after 3 weeks Han and Lin will have the same amount of money in their lunch accounts.
