The formula is
I=prt
I interest earned 22.4
P original deposit ?
R interest rate 0.028
T time 1 year
Solve the formula for p to get
P=I÷rt
P=22.4÷(0.028×1)
P=800

Interest = principle * rate * time...
I = PRT...we are going to rearrange this because we are looking for the principle...

I / (RT) = P
I = 22.40
R = 2.8%...turn to a decimal = 0.028
T = 1

sub and solve
22.40 / (0.028(1) = P
22.40 / 0.028 = P
800 = P....amount of original deposit is $ 800 <==

Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is 1/3 of the other angle. Find the measure if each angle
sdas [7]

Answer:

<em>The measure of the angles is 45° and 135°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines intersect, a linear pair of angles is formed. Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

Let's call x and y the two required angles. Knowing they form a linear pair:

x+y=180

We also know one angle is 1/3 of the other angle, thus:

x=y/3

Or, equivalently:

3x=y

Substituting y into the first equation:

x+3x=180

Simplifying:

4x=180

Solving:

x=180/4=45

The other angle is:

y=3x=3\cdot 45=135

Thus the measure of the angles is 45° and 135°

Vinvika [58]
<span>The value of z is 0.8770. This answer was derived from information in the question, which states that the value of z is 0.8770. Granted, I don't understand what is meant by "cumulative standardized normal distribution." I only passed statistics because the professor felt sorry for me.</span>

Veronika [31]

Parker family drove 120 miles on the first day

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total miles driven on the road trip= 180 miles

solution:

Lets assume the distance drove on the first day is x

The total distance covered on the road trip is 180 miles.  so,

(x) *1.5 = 180

x=\frac{180}{1.5}

Hence, x = 120.

The distance travelled on the first day is 120 miles.
