Interest earned- $25

principal- $500

interest rate -???

time- 2 years

what is the interest rate

Answers

Answer 1

The interest rate is 2.5 %.

Simple interest is the form of interest used for short term loans, such as one receives at pawnshops or from loan sharks. It is governed by the formula:

I = Prt

where I is the amount of interest, P is the principal (amount of money borrowed), r is the interest rate (per year), and t is the time (expressed in years).

Simple Interest (S.I.) is the method of calculating the interest amount for a particular principal amount of money at some rate of interest.

I = $25, P = $500, r = ?, t = 2 years

∴ I = Prt

∴ r = I / Pt

∴ r = 25 / ( 500 * 2)

∴ r = 25 / 1000

∴ r = 0.025

∴ r = 0.025 * 100 %

∴ r = 2.5 %

Therefore, the interest rate is 2.5 %.

The point A (1,1) and the point B(5,-1) lie on the line L. Find the equation of the line L

Answers

Answer is y = -1/2x + 1-1/2 for equation of line L

Step by step

Find slope using y2 - y1 over x2 - x1

-1 - 1 over 5 - 1 = -2/4 or simplified to -1/2

Now using point slope form, plug in one set of points (1, 1) and (m) slope of -1/2
y - y1 = m (x -x1)

y - 1 = -1/2 (x - 1)
Distribute multiply

y - 1 = -1/2x + 1/2
Add 1 to each side to isolate y

y -1 +1 = -1/2x + 1/2 + 1
Simplify

y = -1/2x + 1-1/2

That’s your equation of line L

You could also graph the two points and draw your line. Your slope is -1/2 (rise is -1 down, run is +2 right) and your y intercept is 1-1/2 where the line crosses the y axis.

the monthly cost for 43 min is $17.96 and the monthly cost for 94 min is $24.72 what is the monthly cost for 88 min

Answers

Therefore , the solution to this problem of equation is y = 16.95  cost for 94 minutes.

Explain the equation.

A mathematical equation is a formula that links two statements by indicating their equivalence with the equal sign (=). A mathematical statement that proves the equality of two mathematical expressions is known as an equation in algebra. For instance, the components 3x + 5 and 14 in the equation 3x + 5 = 14 are separated by an equal sign. The relationship between two sentences on either side of a letter is expressed mathematically. There is frequently only one variable, which doubles as the symbol. say that 2x - 4 Equals 2.

Here,

y = mx + b

(50,13.98)(78,17.06)

slope = (17.06 - 13.98) / (78 - 50) = 3.08 / 28 = 0.11

slope(m) = 0.11

use either of ur points...(50,13.98)...x = 50 and y = 13.98

now sub into the formula and find b, the y int

13.98 = 0.11(50) + b

13.98 = 5.5 + b

13.98 - 5.5 = b

8.48 = b

so our equation is : y = 0.11x + 8.48.......for 94 minutes...sub in 77 for x

y = 0.11(94) + 8.48

y = 8.47 + 8.48

y = 16.95 <=== this is the cost for 94 minutes

Therefore , the solution to this problem of equation is y = 16.95  cost for 94 minutes.

x<8

So, possible values of x are 0.75<x<8

b) From triangle ABC,

BC<AC<AB

3x+1<4x+8<7x+2

Now, 3x+1<4x+8

Subtract 3x on both the sides of an inequality, we get

1<x+8

Subtract 8 on both the sides of an inequality, we get

-7<x

Here, 4x+8<7x+2

Subtract 4x on both the sides of an inequality, we get

8<3x+2

Subtract 2 on both the sides of an inequality, we get

6<3x

Divide 3 on both the sides of an inequality, we get

[tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex]

Answers

The y-intercept of the sine function is -3

We know that the standard form of the sine function is, y = a sin(bx + c) + d

where, amplitude = |a|

period = 2π/b

phase shift = -c/b

and vertical shift = d

Here, a sine function has an amplitude of 3, a period of π, and a phase shift of π/4

a = 3,

So, 2π/b = π

⇒ b = 2

And phase shift -c/b = π/4

⇒ -c/2 = π/4

⇒ -c = π/2

⇒ c = -π/2

So, a sine function would be,

y = 3 sin(2x + -π/2) + 0

y = 3 sin(2x + -π/2)

When x = 0,

y = 3 sin(0+ -π/2)

y = 3 sin(-π/2)

thanks.

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

if the denominator of a rational expression is zero then the expression will be undefined.

the numerator is the part of the rational expression that makes it zero.

solve the numerators in each to find values of x

1

[tex]\frac{x+6}{x-4}[/tex]

x + 6 = 0 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

x = - 6 ← value that makes expression equal to zero

2

[tex]\frac{(x+4)(x-2)}{x+6}[/tex]

(x + 4)(x - 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x = - 4 and x = 2 make the expression equal to zero

3

[tex]\frac{2x+10}{3x-12}[/tex]

2x + 10 = 0 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

2x = - 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 5 ← value that makes expression equal to zero

Answer:

1)  x = -6

2)  x = -4  and  x = 2

3)  x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational expression is undefined when the denominator equals zero.

A rational expression equals zero when the numerator equals zero.

Question 1

Given rational expression:

[tex]\dfrac{x+6}{x-4}[/tex]

Rob collects model planes one of his planes uses a sacks in which 1 inch represents 1. 5 feet if the length of the model airplane is 12 inches find the length of the actual airplane on feet

Answers

If 1 inch represents 1.5 feet, we can use this conversion factor to find the length of the actual airplane in feet. Thus 12 inches of model airplane represents an actual length of the actual airplane of 18 feet.

Therefore the answer is 18 feet.

To convert the length of the model airplane (12 inches) to feet, we can multiply it by the conversion factor (1 inch = 1.5 feet)

= 12 inches × 1.5 feet/inch

= 18 feet

So the length of the actual airplane is 18 feet.

It is important to pay attention to the units of measurement when performing conversions and make sure to use the correct conversion factor. And also it's a good practice to always check your answer to make sure it makes sense in the context of the problem.

Can the sine ratio of an acute angle be greater than 1?

Answers

No, the sine ratio of an acute angle cannot be greater than 1. The sine of an acute angle is defined as the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle. Since the side opposite the angle is shorter than the hypotenuse, the ratio will always be less than one.

To what does sin equate?

In contrast to the cosine of an angle, which corresponds to the ratio of the nearby side to the hypotenuse, the sine of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse.

It's important to note that if you were to give an angle value greater than 90 degrees, the sine of the angle will be a negative value, but the ratio will still be less than one.

The process of finding the partial fraction expansion of a rational function is also known as partial fraction decomposition.

The denominator is

(x² - 1)(x² + 3x + 2) = (x² - 1)(x² + x + 2x + 2)

(x² - 1)(x² + 3x + 2) = (x + 1)(x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 2)

So by  partial fraction expansion

(x³ + 4)/ ((x² - 1)(x² + 3x + 2)) = (x³ + 4)/ ((x + 1)(x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 2))

(x³ + 4)/ ((x + 1)(x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 2)) = A/ (x + 1) + B/(x - 1) + C/(x + 2) + D/ (x + 1)²

A(x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 2) + B(x + 1)²(x + 2) + C(x + 1)²(x - 1) + D(x - 1)(x + 2) = x³ + 4

(A + B + C)x³ + (2A + 4B + C + D)x² + (-A + 5B - C + D)x + (-2A + 2B - C - 2D) = x³ + 4

Thus from coefficients of x³, x², x and 1,

A + B + C = 1

2A + 4B + C + D = 0

-A + 5B - C + D = 0

-2A + 2B - C - 2D = 4

Solving

A = -3/4, B = 5/ 12, C = 4/3 and D = -3/2

Rebecca carries a balance on her credit card each month. Today is the first day of the new, 28-day billing cycle. The current balance is x and the APR is 24%. Rebecca is buying a friend an expensive gift that cost $1,400 that she plans to put on her credit card. this will be her only purchase this month, and she will be making this purchase on the last day of the month

Part A
If her Finance charge will be $51, write and solve an equation to determine her current balance on her credit card. Show work


Part B
How much in finance charges can she save by making the purchase on the last day of the billing cycle versus the first day of the billing cycle? Explain how you determined your answer

Answers

Rebecca can save $27 in finance charge when she purchases the $1,400 gift for her friend on the laset day of the billing cycle instead of on the first day

What is Equation?

Two or more expressions with an Equal sign is called as Equation.

The billing cycle for the month = 28 days

Current beginning balance = x

Annual percentage rate (APR) = 24%

Monthly percentage rate (MPR) = 2% (24% ÷ 12)

Purchase on the last day = $1,400

Total finance charge for the month = $51

Finance charge for the last-day purchase = $1 ($1,400 x 2% x 1/28)

Finance charge for the beginning balance = $50 ($51 - $1)

The current beginning balance, x = $2,500 ($50 ÷ 2%)

Equation for current beginning balance, x = 51 - 1 ÷ 0.02

Total finance charge for the last-day purchase = $28 ($1,400 x 2%)

Savings in finance charge by purchasing on the last day = $27 ($28 - $1)

Hence, Rebecca can save $27 in finance charge when she purchases the $1,400 gift for her friend on the last day of the billing cycle instead of on the first day.
