Answer: You invested $6000 in both accounts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested in the account earning 4.5% interest.

Let y represent the amount invested in the account earning 5% interest.

You invested a total of $12,000 at 4.5 percent and 5 percent simple interest. This means that

x + y = 12000

The formula for simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

Considering the account earning 4.5%

I = (x × 4.5 × 1)/100 = 0.045x

Considering the account earning 5%

I = (y × 5 × 1)/100 = 0.05y

During one year, the two accounts earned $570. . This means that

0.045x + 0.05y = 570 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 12000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.045(12000 - y) + 0.05y = 570

540 - 0.045y + 0.05y = 570

- 0.045y + 0.05y = 570 - 540

0.005y = 30

y = 30/0.005 = 6000

x = 12000 - y = 12000 - 6000

x = $6000

Is AB parallel to Bo? Explain.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

AB parallel to CD because both lines have a slope of

of 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, there is no graph.

A graph for the question is attached below.

From the image attached below, line 1 passes through points A = (-3, -3) and point B = (0, 1) while line 2 passes through point C = (0, -5) and point D = (3, -1).

Two parallel are said to be parallel if the have the same slope. The slope of a line passing through points:

(x_1,y_1)\ asnd\ (x_2,y_2).\ The\ slope \ is\ given\ as:\\\\Slope(m)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Line 1 passes through points A = (-3, -3) and point B = (0, 1), the slope of line 1 is:

Slope(m)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{1-(-3)}{0-(-3)}=\frac{1+3}{0+3}=\frac{4}{3}

Line 2 passes through point C = (0, -5) and point D = (3, -1). the slope of line 2 is:

Slope(m)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{-1-(-5)}{3-0}=\frac{-1+5}{3}=\frac{4}{3}

Therefore AB parallel to CD because both lines have a slope of

of 4/3

The lifespan (in days) of the common housefly is best modeled using a normal curve having mean 22 days and standard deviation 5.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Yes, it would be unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

If Z \leq -2 or Z \geq 2, the outcome X is considered unusual.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 22, \sigma = 5, n = 25, s = \frac{5}{\sqrt{25}} = 1

Would it be unusual for this sample mean to be less than 19 days?

We have to find Z when X = 19. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{19 - 22}{1}

Z = -3

Z = -3 \leq -2, so yes, the sample mean being less than 19 days would be considered an unusual outcome.

Solve the following quadratic equations by extracting square roots.Answer the questions that follow.
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1.  x=±4

2. t=±9

3. r=±10

4. x=±12

5. s=±5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x^2 = 16

Taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{16}\\\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{(4)^2}\\

x=±4

2. t^2=81

Taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{t^2}=\sqrt{81}\\\sqrt{t^2}=\sqrt{(9)^2}

t=±9

3. r^2-100=0

r^{2}-100=0\\r^2 =100\\Taking\ Square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{100}\\\sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{(10)^2}

r=±10

4. x²-144=0

x²=144

Taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{144}\\\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{(12)^2}

x=±12

5. 2s²=50

\frac{2s^2}{2} =\frac{50}{2}\\s^2=25\\Taking\ Square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\sqrt{s^2}=\sqrt{25}\\\sqrt{s^2}=\sqrt{(5)^2}

s=±5 ..
