Answer:

Maximum number of pounds of grapes: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If you spend all the money, $18, in grapes then you will maximize the number of pounds of grapes you can buy. That means, to solve the equation for y, the number of pounds of grapes, with x = 0 (the number of pounds of oranges):

1.5*0 + 2*y = 18

y = 18/2

y = 9

Compare and contrast expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with simplifying numeric expressions. For example, compare

larisa [96]

<span>With algebraic expressions, you can’t add and subtract any terms like you can add and subtract numbers. Terms must be like terms in order to combine them. So, you can’t always simplify an algebraic expression by following the order of operations. You have to use the distributive property to rewrite the expression and then combine like terms to simplify. With numeric expressions, you can either simplify inside the parentheses first or use the distributive property first.</span>

A piece of equipment moves 16.8 yards in 12 minutes how many feet does it move per second?

I am Lyosha [343]

convert yards to feet and minutes to seconds

1yard=3ft

16.8yards times 3ft/1yd=50.4ft

1minute=60 seconds

12minutes times 60seconds/1min=720seconds

feet per second=50.4ft/720sec=0.07ft/sec

answer is 0.07ft/sec

Darren invests $4,500 into an account that earns 5% annual interests. How much will be in the account after 10 years if the inte

xz_007 [3.2K]

We have been given that Darren invests $4,500 into an account that earns 5% annual interests. We are asked to find the amount in his account after 10 years, if the interest rate is compounded annually, quarterly, monthly, or daily.

We will use compound interest formula to solve our given problem.

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$ , where,

A = Final amount,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

n = Number of times interest is compounded per year,

t = Time in years.

$5\%=\frac{5}{100}=0.05$

When compounded annually, $n=1$ :

$A=4500(1+\frac{0.05}{1})^{1\cdot 10}$

$A=4500(1.05)^{10}$

$A=4500(1.6288946267774414)$

$A=7330.025820498\approx 7330.03$

When compounded quarterly, $n=4$ :

$A=4500(1+\frac{0.05}{4})^{4\cdot 10}$

$A=4500(1.0125)^{40}$

$A=4500(1.6436194634870132)$

$A=7396.28758569\approx 7396.29$

When compounded monthly, $n=12$ :

$A=4500(1+\frac{0.05}{12})^{12\cdot 10}$

$A=4500(1.00416666)^{120}$

$A=4500(1.64700949769)$

$A=7411.542739605\approx 7411.54$

When compounded daily, $n=365$ :

$A=4500(1+\frac{0.05}{365})^{365\cdot 10}$

$A=4500(1.0001369863013699)^{3650}$

$A=4500(1.6486648137656943695)$

$A=7418.9916619456\approx 7419.00$

Since amount earned will be maximum, when interest is compounded daily, therefore, Darren should use compounded daily interest rate.
