Jack is 4 times as old as Lacy. 3 years from now the sum of their ages will be 71 . How old are they now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52

Step-by-step explanation:

In 3 years their ages will add up to 71 so you have to subtract 6 as there are two of them to get 65. Lacy's age is represented by x and since Jack is 4 times older his age is represented by 4x. So added together their age is 5x. So 5x=65. Then 65/5=13. So 13=x. So Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52 as 13x4 is 52.

The state of Georgia is divided up into 159 counties. Consider a population of Georgia residents with mutually independent and equally likely home locations. If you have a group of n such residents, what is the probability that two or more people in the group have a home in the same county

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{159^{n} -(\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right.)*n! ) }{159^{n} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

number of counties = 159

n number of people are mutually independent and equally likely home locations

considering the details given in the question

n ≤ 159

The number of ways for people ( n ) will live in the different counties (159) can be determined as [tex](\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right} )[/tex]

since the residents are mutually independent and equally likely home locations hence there are : [tex]159^{n}[/tex] ways for the residents to live in

therefore the probability = [tex]\frac{159^{n} -(\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right.)*n! ) }{159^{n} }[/tex]

Express b+1/3b-2 with “b” as the subject

Answers

Answer:

b = [tex]\frac{1+2a}{3a-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a = [tex]\frac{b+1}{3b-2}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 3b - 2 )

a(3b - 2) = b + 1 ← distribute left side

3ab - 2a = b + 1 ( subtract b from both sides )

3ab - b - 2a = 1 ( add 2a to both sides )

3ab - b = 1 + 2a ← factor out b from each term on the left side

b(3a - 1) = 1 + 2a ( divide both sides by 3a - 1 )

b = [tex]\frac{1+2a}{3a-1}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]→a = \frac{(b + 1)}{(3b - 2)} \\ a(3b - 2) = (b + 1) \\ 3ab - 2a = b + 1 \\ 3ab - b = 2a + 1 \\ b(3a - 1) =( 2a + 1) \\ \boxed{b = \frac{(2a + 1)}{(3a - 1)} }✓[/tex]

b = (2a+1)/(3a-1) is the right answer.

I WILL RATE YOUR BRAINLIEST Marius opened a savings account. The sequence {200, 208, 216.30, 225, …} describes the amount of interest he earns each year his account is active. If this pattern continues, how much total interest will Marius have earned by the 30th year the account is active?

Answers

Answer:

11,215

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence of interest earned by Marius on his savings account as

200, 208, 216.30, 225, …, the sequence of interest forms a geometric sequence since they have a common ratio.

[tex]r =\frac{T_2}{T_1}= \frac{T_3}{T_2}= \frac{T_4}{T_3}\\ r =\frac{208}{200}= \frac{216.30}{208}= \frac{225}{216.30} \approx 1.04[/tex]

To get how much total interest will Marius have earned by the 30th year the account is active, we will find the sum of the first 30 terms of the geometric sequence as shown.

[tex]S_n =\frac{ a(r^n-1)}{r-1} \ for \ r> 1\\ \\\\ n = 30, a = 200, r = 1.04\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 200(1.04^{30}-1)}{1.04-1}\\\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 200(3.243-1)}{0.04}\\\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 200(2.243)}{0.04}\\\\S_{30} = \dfrac{ 448.6}{0.04}]\\\\S_{30} = 11,215[/tex]

Hence total interest that Marius will earn by the 30th year the account is active is 11,215.

the correct answer is

S30= 200(1-1.04^n)/1-1.04

Find the sum of 1 + 3/2 + 9/4 + …, if it exists. This is infinite series notation. The answer is NOT 4.75.

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, this looks like a geometric series. To determine whether or not it is, find the common ratio. To do this, we can divide the second term and the first term, and then divide the third term and the second term. If they equal to same, then this is indeed a geometric series.

[tex](3/2)/(1)=3/2\\(9/4)/(3/2)=(9/4)(2/3)=18/12=3/2[/tex]

Therefore, this is indeed a geometric series with a common ratio of 3/2.

With just this, we can stop. This is because since the common ratio is greater than one, each subsequent value is going to be bigger than the previous one. Because of this, the series will not converge. Therefore, the series has no sum.

To see this more clearly, imagine a few more terms:

1, 1.5, 2.25, 3.375, 5.0625...

Each subsequent term will just increase. The sum will not converge.

Answer:

No Sum --- it doesn't exist.

Step-by-step explanation:

The partial sums get arbitrarily large--the go to infinity.

The geometric series you are trying to sum has common ratio = 3/2.

The sum of the infinite series exists only when |common ratio| < 1.

The formula for the partial sum of n terms is (r^(n+1) - 1) / (r - 1) = (1.5^(n+1) - 1) / 0.5, or in decimals instead of fraction.. i.e. 1 + 1.5 + 2.25 + 5.0525 + 25.628 + 656.840..... therefore It would take a long time but you'd be adding up forever and goes to infinity.

:( I Need help! Show work please! Aviva has a total of 52 coins, all of which are either dimes or nickels. The total value of the coins is $4.70. Find the number of each type of coin.

Answers

Answer:

42 Dimes, 10 Nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimes are worth $0.10, nickels are worth $0.05.

If D = number of dimes, and N = number of nickels, then the following equations are true:

0.10D + 0.05N = 4.70

D + N = 52

Next, let's multiply the first equation by 10 so that we can subtract the second one from it.

D + 0.50N = 47

(-) D + N = 52

Subtracting the second equation from the first one gives:

-0.5N = -5

-0.5N/-0.5 = -5/-0.5

N = 10

Finally, substitute N in the original second equation to find D.

D + 10 = 52

D + 10 - 10 = 52 - 10

D = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing tool is useful for finding the points of intersection of these lines. If the equations are numbered 1, 2, 3 in the order given, we can find the points of intersection to be ...

  equations 1, 2: A(5, -2)

  equations 2, 3: B(10, 0)

  equations (3, 1): C(-2, 12)

Then the area can be found from the coordinates using the formula ...

  A = (1/2)|x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) +x3(y1-y2)|

  = (1/2)|5(0-12) +10(12-(-2)) -2(-2-0))| = (1/2)|-60 +140 +4|

  A = 42

The area of the triangular region is 42 square units.

Use the model to show to help find the sum 0.34 plus 0.49

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The idea to use in solving this problem using the model, is to express the number of shaded boxes in fraction form.

Thus, the blue red shaded boxes has 34 boxes shaded out of 100 boxes. This represents [tex] \frac{34}{100} [/tex]. This will give us 0.34.

The other shaded boxes represents [tex] \frac{49}{100} = 0.49 [/tex].

Using the model, we can solve 0.34 + 0.49.

Add both fractions together.

[tex] \frac{34}{100} + \frac{49}{100} = \frac{34+49}{100} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{83}{100} = 0.83 [/tex]

Determina el valor absoluto de 13 – 11|

Answers

Responder:

2

Explicación paso a paso:

El valor absoluto de una expresión es el también conocido como valor positivo devuelto por la expresión. Una expresión en un signo de módulo se conoce como valor absoluto de la expresión y dicha expresión siempre toma dos valores (tanto el valor positivo como el negativo).

Por ejemplo, el valor absoluto de x se escribe como | x | y esto puede devolver tanto + x como -x debido al signo del módulo.

Pasando a la pregunta, debemos determinar el valor absoluto de | 13-11 |. Esto significa que debemos determinar el valor positivo de la expresión como se muestra;

= | 13-11 |

= | 2 |

Este módulo de 2 puede devolver tanto +2 como -2, pero el valor absoluto solo devolverá el valor positivo, es decir, 2.

Por tanto, el valor absoluto de la expresión es 2

A parent increases a child’s monthly allowance by 20% each year. If the allowance is $8 per month now, in about how many years will it take to reach $20 per month? Use the equation 20 = 8(1.2)x to solve the problem. Round to the nearest year. 1 year 5 years 2 years 16 years

Answers

Answer:

6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A parent increases a child’s monthly allowance by 20% each year. If the allowance is $8 per month now. This is an exponential function, An exponential function is given by:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

Let x be the number of years and y be the allowance. The initial allowance is $8, this means at x = 0, y = 8

[tex]y=ab^x\\8=ab^0\\a=8[/tex]

Since it increases by 20% each year, i.e 100% + 20% = 1 + 0.2 = 1.2. This means that b = 1.2

Therefore:

[tex]y=ab^x\\y=8(1.2^x) \\[/tex]

To find the number of years will it take to reach $20 per month, we substitute y = 20 and find x

[tex]20=8(1.2)^x\\20/8=1.2^x\\1.2^x=2.5\\Taking \ natural\ log\ of \ both\ sides:\\ln(1.2^x)=ln2.5\\xln(1.2)=0.9163\\x=0.9163/ln(1.2)\\x=5.026[/tex]

Janet invests a sum of EUR in an account that offers 3.5% simple interest. After ten years her investment is worth 7425 EUR. How much did she invest?

Answers

We need to find the amount of money Janet invested in 10 years to yield 7425 EUR

She invested EUR 21,214.29

Simple interest = P × R × T

Where,

P = principal = ?

R = interest rate = 3.5% = 0.035

T = Time = 10 years

Simple interest = 7425 EUR

Simple interest = P × R × T

7425 = p × 0.035 × 10

7425 = p × 0.35

7425 = 0.35p

Divide both sides by 0.35

P = 7425 / 0.35

= 21,214.285714285

Approximately,

P = EUR 21,214.29
