Answer:

$ 7,835.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the value of his money five years ago,

Given,

Annual rate of interest = 5 %,

Time = 5 years,

So, the amount after 5 years,

A=x(1+\frac{5}{100})^5

=x(1+0.05)^5

=x(1.05)^5

According to the question,

x(1.05)^5=10000

\implies x = 7835.262\approx 7835.26

Hence, the value of his money five years ago was $ 7,835.26.

Shania is making a scale diagram of the badminton court at the community center. She uses a scale of 1 centimeter to 0.5 meter t
docker41 [41]

1m = 100cm

1cm → 0.5m

1cm → 0.5 · 100cm = 50cm

The scale: \dfrac{50}{1}=50

length = 26.8cm · 50 = 1,340cm = 13.40m

width = 12.2cm · 50 = 610cm = 6.10m

The area of the court:

A = 13.40 · 6.10 = 81.74 m²

After triangle ace is dilated by a factor of 5, it has an area of 100 square inches. What was its area before dilation?
NISA [10]

Answer:

20in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you multiply the original area of the triangle by the scale factor to get the new area, you can find the original area (before dilation) by dividing the dilated triangle's area by the scale factor. Since 100 is the area of the dilated triangle, and 5 is your scale factor, you do 100/5 to get the area of the triangle before it was dilated.

If 8 identical blackboards are to be divided among 4 schools,how many divisions are possible? How many, if each school mustrecei
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

There are 165 ways to distribute the blackboards between the schools. If at least 1 blackboard goes to each school, then we only have 35 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, this is a problem of balls and sticks. The 8 identical blackboards can be represented as 8 balls, and you assign them to each school by using 3 sticks. Basically each school receives an amount of blackboards equivalent to the amount of balls between 2 sticks: The first school gets all the balls before the first stick, the second school gets all the balls between stick 1 and stick 2, the third school gets the balls between sticks 2 and 3 and the last school gets all remaining balls.

 The problem reduces to take 11 consecutive spots which we will use to localize the balls and the sticks and select 3 places to put the sticks. The amount of ways to do this is {11 \choose 3} = 165 . As a result, we have 165 ways to distribute the blackboards.

If each school needs at least 1 blackboard you can give 1 blackbooard to each of them first and distribute the remaining 4 the same way we did before. This time there will be 4 balls and 3 sticks, so we have to put 3 sticks in 7 spaces (if a school takes what it is between 2 sticks that doesnt have balls between, then that school only gets the first blackboard we assigned to it previously). The amount of ways to localize the sticks is {7 \choose 3} = 35. Thus, there are only 35 ways to distribute the blackboards in this case.

An object is dropped from a height of 1700 ft above the ground. The function h=-16t^2+1700 gives the object’s height h in feet d
Softa [21]
The answer is
<span>a) 1000=-16t^2+1700, implies t² = -700 /-16, and t= 6.61s
b) </span><span>970= -16t^2+1700, </span><span>implies t² = -730 /-16, and t=6.75s

c)
reasonable domain of h
h is polynomial function, so its domain is R, (all real number)
its range
the inverse of h is h^-1 = sqrt (1700- t / 16), and its domain is </span>
