Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Use formula for continuous interest:</u>
- A = , where r- interest rate, t- time in years
<u>If A = 3P, and r = 0.085 then the equation is:</u>
- ln 3 = 0.085t
- 1.099 = 0.085t
- t = 1.099 / 0.085
- t = 12.9 ≈ 13 years
Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:
Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.
Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.
Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.
11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high. 11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!
It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.
Answer: 60 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
It takes ferry 2 hours to travel to town A and only to travel back to town B.
Speed of current is
Suppose the speed of the ferry is mph
Distance traveled in both the cases is same, but it took more time traveling to city A that is, ferry is moving upstream and downstream for returning time.
Distance between the towns is
Answer:
Yes. Felix is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find out how much ml does a can of lemonade have, I would assume its 330ml since I searched up the ml of a lemonade can.
Find out how much cans of lemonade there are in 2 packs of 8.
2 packs = 8 x 2 = 16 cans of lemonade
Now find out how much ml 16 lemonade cans equal to.
1 can of lemonade = 330ml
16 cans of lemonade = 330 x 16 = 5280ml
Now let's find 5 bottles of 1 litre.
1 litre x 5 = 5 litres.
5280 = 5 litres and 280ml
So Felix is correct about 2 packs of 8 cans is more than 5 bottles of 1 litre.
Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 1/2 is the same distance from zero and one, we can use it to judge whether a fraction is closer to 0 or 1.
Since 5/8 is greater than 4/8 which is 1/2, it is closer to 1.
Since 8/10 is greater than 5/10 which is 1/2, it is closer to 1.
Since 5/12 is less than 6/12 which is 1/2, it is closer to 0.
So our answer is C. 5/12
