Nelson has half of his investments in stock paying a 6% dividend and the other half in a stock paying 9% interest. if his total annual interest is $660 how much does he have invested?

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

percent of dividend = 6%

percent of interest = 9%

Total annual interest = $ 660

Let the amount invested in both stocks be x and y.

Annual interest on 6% dividend gives:

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\text{ }\frac{6}{100}\text{ }\times\text{ x} \\ =\text{ 0.06x} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Annual interest on 9% interest rate:

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\text{ }\frac{9}{100\text{ }}\times\text{ y} \\ =\text{ 0.09y} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The total annual interest is $ 660. We can write:

[tex]0.06x\text{ + 0.09y =660}[/tex]

We are given that Nelson divided his investment in half. This implies:

[tex]x\text{ = y}[/tex]

Substituting, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.06x\text{ + 0.09x = 660} \\ 0.15x\text{ = 660} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.15:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{0.15x}{0.15}\text{ = }\frac{660}{0.15} \\ x\text{ = 4400} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the amount Nelson has invested:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x\text{ = y = 4400} \\ \text{Amount invested = 4400 + 4400} \\ =\text{ 8800} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer:

Nelson has $4400 invested in each investment

If the corresponding elements of two sequences of numbers, frequently experimental data, have a constant ratio, known as the coefficient of proportionality or proportionality constant, then the two sequences of numbers are proportional or directly proportional.

Definition of the proportionality constant?

The ratio connecting two given numbers in what is known as a proportional relationship is the constant of proportionality. Constant ratio, constant rate, unit rate, constant of variation, and even rate of change are other names for the constant of proportionality.

K = y/x is the equation for the proportionality constant. The equation for the slope of a line through the origin, m = y/x, is the same as this. One can determine the value by using the equation for the line's slope.

Quinn returned home one summer's day to find it extremely hot. He turned the air conditioner on, and the room's temperature began decreasing at a constant rate. The equation shown above gives the room's temperature, R, in degrees Celsius, t minutes after Quinn turned on the air conditioner. What was the room's temperature, in degrees Celsius, when Quinn returned home?

Answers

The room's temperature when Quinn returned home is the y-intercept of the equation, which is: 40 degrees Celsius.

What is the Y-intercept or Initial Value of a Linear Equation?

The equation of a linear relationship between two variables, x and y, can be expressed in slope-intercept form as y = mx + b, where we have the initial value or the y-intercept as "b", and the rate of change or unit rate as "m".

Alternatively, it can be rewritten as y = b + mx.

R = 42 - 0.7t represents the equation for the Quinn's room's temperature, R, in degrees Celsius, and t in minutes after Quinn turned on the air conditioner.

Interpreting the equation, we can deduce the following:

The initial value or the y-intercept (b) was the room's temperature when Quinn returned home.

The unit rate or rate of change (m) = -0.7 degrees per minute.

Thus, Quinn's room's temperature when she returned was 40 degrees Celsius.

So, if one length is considered as x
     the other two will also be x
      we see that the length of one side is given which is 27
      to find x
      x + x + x = 27
        3x = 27
    so, x = 27/3
          x = 9m

(the small vertical single line means that those sides are equal)
so if one side is y, the other two are also y
so , y + y+ y = 30
       3y = 30
       y = 10m

If we imagine the stairs to be made of small rectangles of length 10m and base 9m , finding area will be easier.
we will see that there are 9 rectangles in total
area of rectangle = length x base
so, area of 1 rectangle = 9x10

Give a polynomial of degree 3 that has zeros of 18, 10i, and −10i, and has a value of −3434 when x=1. Write the polynomial in standard form axn+bxn−1+….

Answers

The polynomial in standard form is  2x³+200x-36x²-3600

A polynomial is a mathematical formula that involves only the operations subtraction, addition,  multiplication, and powers of positive integers of the variables and is composed of coefficients and indeterminates.

It is common to refer to the x of a polynomial as a variable or an indeterminate. The symbol x is fixed and has no significance when the polynomial is viewed as an expression (its value is "indeterminate"). The argument of the function is represented by x, which is referred to as a "variable" when considering the function that the polynomial defines.

We know the roots of the polynomial as 18, 10i, and −10i.

therefore the polynomial is of the form.

a(x-18)(x-10i)(x+10i)

= a (x-18)(x²-100i²)

= a (x-18)(x²+100)

= a (x³+100x-18x²-1800)

Now at x =1 The value of the polynomial is -3434

Therefore

-3434 = a(1+100-18-1800)

or, a = 2

Therefore the polynomial is of the form: (2x³+200x-36x²-3600)

Can someone help me with this please?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

in general, a linear function is always of the structure

y = ax + b

"a" is the slope of the line and is the ratio (y coordinate difference / x coordinate difference) when going from one point on the line to another.

"b" is the y-intercept (the y-value when x = 0).

so, if we don't see the solution right away with experience, we have to use the data points (usually starting with the first 2) to solve them 2 equations with 2 variables a, b :

2 = a×1 + b = a + b

1 = a×2 + b = 2a + b

now we can simply subtract the first equation from the second and get

1 = 2a + b

- 2 = a + b

------------------

-1 = a + 0

a = -1

1 = 2×-1 + b = -2 + b

b = 3

and the equation is

y = -x + 3

therefore, when the input is n (that means f(n))

y = output = -n + 3

Answers

The speed of the boat in still water is 6miles/hour miles per hour.

The speed of the current is 3miles/hour miles per hour.

The distance travelled by the boat downstream(with the flow current of river) is 240 miles.

The distance travelled by the boat upstream(Against the flow current of river) is 240 miles.

Time taken to travel downstream = 20 hours.

Time taken to travel upstream = 60 hours.

Let us say the velocity of the boat is V and the velocity of the current flow of river is U.

The relative velocity of boat with respect to ground while going downstream is,

velocity of boat in downstream = V + U.

As we know,

Velocity = distance/time

Putting values of downstream motion,

V + U = 240/20

V + U = 10

Let us say this is our equation 1.

The relative velocity of boat with respect to ground while going upstream is,

velocity of boat in upstream = V - U

As we already know,

Velocity = distance/time

Putting the values of upstream motion,

V - U = 240/60

V - U = 3

Let us say this is our equation 2.

Now, on adding equation 1 and 2.

V+U+V-U = 10 + 3

2V = 13

V = 6.5 miles per hour.

Rounding off to the nearest integer,

V = 6 miles/hour.

Putting V = 6.5 miles/hour in equation 1,

6.5 + U = 10

U = 3.5 miles/hour.

Rounding off to the nearest integer,

U = 3 miles/hour

The velocity of river current is 3 miles/hour and velocity of boat is 6miles/hour.

Answers

We can see that the holes of the piece are already oriented in a way the piece will fit in the missing hole of the puzzle, so it doesn't need a rotation or reflection.

Then, in order to fit the piece in the hole, we need to move the piece 3 positions to the left and 1 position down.

Therefore the transformation needed is: a translation of 3 units to the left and 1 unit down.

What is the translation?

We are given the vertices of Quadrilateral ABCD as;

Now, we are told that it is first translated right by 6 units. This means that we would add 6 units to each x-value to get;

A'(-3 + 6, 4) = A'(3, 4)

B'(1 + 6, 3) = (7, 3)

C'(3 + 6, 6) = C'(9, 6)

D'(1 + 6, 6) = D'(7, 6)
