Answer:

$8,000 at 10%

$12,000 at 7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the part invested at 10% = x

Let the part invested at 7% = $20,000 - x

7% = 0.07

10% = 0.10

Hank invested a total of $20,000, part at 7%

0.07(20000 - x)

And part at 10%

0.10(x)

Hence, we have:

0.10x + 0.07(20000 - x) = 1640

0.10x + 1400 - 0.07x = 1640

0.10x - 0.07x = 1640 - 1400

0.03x = 240

x = 240/0.03

x = 8000

Hence, the amount he invested at 10% = $8,000

The amount he invested at 7% =

$20,000 - x

= $20,000 - $8,000

= $12,000

Answer:

The amount invested at 7% is $12,000 while the amount invested at 10% is $8,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The total amount Hank invested = $20,000

The interest earned in one year = $1640

Hank invested part of the $20,000 at 7% interest and part of the $20,000 at 10%

Let the part invested at 7% = X and the part invested at 10% = Y, we have;

7% of X + 10% of Y = $1640 which gives;

0.07×X + 0.1×Y = $1640.....................(1)

X + Y = $20,000.................................(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 10 and subtract equation (1) from equation (2) to get;

X + Y - 10×(0.07×X + 0.1×Y) = $20,000 - 10×$1640

X - 0.7·X - Y - Y = $20,000 - $16,400 = $3,600

0.3·X = $3,600

X = $3,600/0.3 = $12,000

X = $12,000

Y = $20,000 - X = $20,000 - $12,000 = $8,000

Y = $8,000

Therefore, the amount invested at 7% = $12,000 and the amount invested at 10% = $8,000.

What value of b will cause the system to have an infinite number of solutions? A system of equations. y equals 6 x plus b. negat
mylen [45]

Answer:

b=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=6x+b ----> equation A

-3x+\frac{1}{2}y=-3 -----> equation B

we know that

If equation A is the same of equation B, then the system of equations will have infinite solutions

Convert equation B in slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

Multiply by 2 both sides to remove the fractions

-6x+y=-6

Adds 6x both sides

y=6x-6  -----> equation C (slope intercept form)

Equate equation A and equation C and solve for b

6x+b=6x-6  

b=-6

Problem 2.2.4 Your Starburst candy has 12 pieces, three pieces of each of four flavors: berry, lemon, orange, and cherry, arrang
kkurt [141]

Answer:

a) P=0

b) P=0.164

c) P=0.145

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 12 pieces, with 3 of each of the 4 flavors.

You draw the first 4 pieces.

a) The probability of getting all of the same flavor is 0, because there are only 3 pieces of each flavor. Once you get the 3 of the same flavor, there are only the other flavors remaining.

b) The probability of all 4 being from different flavor can be calculated as the multiplication of 4 probabilities.

The first probability is for the first draw, and has a value of 1, as any flavor will be ok.

The second probability corresponds to drawing the second candy and getting a different flavor. There are 2 pieces of the flavor from draw 1, and 9 from the other flavors, so this probability is 9/(9+2)=9/11≈0.82.

The third probability is getting in the third draw a different flavor from the previos two draws. We have left 10 candys and 4 are from the flavor we already picked. Then the third probabilty is 6/10=0.6.

The fourth probability is getting the last flavor. There are 9 candies left and only 3 are of the flavor that hasn't been picked yet. Then, the probability is 3/9=0.33.

Then, the probabilty of picking the 4 from different flavors is:

P=1\cdot\dfrac{9}{11}\cdot\dfrac{6}{10}\cdot\dfrac{3}{9}=\dfrac{162}{990}\approx0.164

c) We can repeat the method for the previous probabilty.

The first draw has a probability of 1 because any flavor is ok.

In the second draw, we may get the same flavor, with probability 2/11, or we can get a second flavor with probability 9/11. These two branches are ok.

For the third draw, if we have gotten 2 of the same flavor (P=2/11), we have to get a different flavor (we can not have 3 of the same flavor). This happen with probability 9/10.

If we have gotten two diffente flavors, there are left 4 candies of the picked flavors in the remaining 10 candies, so we have a probabilty of 4/10.

For the fourth draw, independently of the three draws, there are only 2 candies left that satisfy the condition, so we have a probability of 2/9.

For the first path, where we pick 2 candies of the same flavor first and 2 candies of the same flavor last, we have two versions, one for each flavor, so we multiply this probability by a factor of 2.

We have then the probabilty as:

P=2\cdot\left(1\cdot\dfrac{2}{11}\right)\cdot\left(\dfrac{9}{10}\cdot\dfrac{2}{9}\right)+\left(1\cdot\dfrac{9}{11}\cdot\dfrac{4}{10}\cdot\dfrac{2}{9}\right)\\\\\\P=2\cdot\dfrac{36}{990}+\dfrac{72}{990}=\dfrac{144}{990}\approx0.145

Boris chooses three DIFFERENT numbers.
g100num [7]

Answer:

4, 5, 27.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find our numbers using given information.

Factors of 20 are: 1,2,4,5,10 and 20.

Let us try by taking number 4 and 5.

36-(4+5)=36-9=27  

We can see that 3^{3} =27

Now let us find sum of these numbers.

4+5+27=36

Therefore, numbers chosen by Boris will be 4, 5 and 27 as these numbers satisfies our all conditions.
