What is the greatest integer value of y for which 5y - 20 < 0?

2 answers:

6 0

5y - 20 < 0...add 20 to both sides
5y < 20...divide both sides by 5
y < 20/5
y < 4 (this states that y is less then 4)

Therefore, the greatest integer that y could be is 3 (because integers cannot be fractions, they have to be whole numbers)

Answer:

Greatest value of y is 3 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 5y - 20 < 0.

To find : what is the greatest integer value of y

Solution : We have given that

5y - 20 < 0.

On adding both sides by 20.

5y < 20 .

On dividing by both sides 5.

y < 4.

We can see y is less than 4 , it mean all the values of y must be less than 4 but not including 4 like 3 ,2, 1, 0, -1, -2 ........so on.

So , the greatest value is 3 .

It can not be in fraction because we asked about integer.

Therefore, greatest value of y is 3 .

1600 dollars is placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 5.25%. How much will be in the account after 25 years, to t

Andru [333]

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Functions:

y=ab^x

y=ab

a=\text{starting value = }1600

a=starting value = 1600

r=\text{rate = }5.25\% = 0.0525

r=rate = 5.25%=0.0525

\text{Exponential Growth:}

Exponential Growth:

b=1+r=1+0.0525=1.0525

\text{Write Exponential Function:}

Write Exponential Function:

y=1600(1.0525)^x

y=1600(1.0525)

Put it all together

\text{Plug in time for x:}

Plug in time for x:

y=1600(1.0525)^{25}

y=1600(1.0525)

y= 5750.0628984

y=5750.0628984

Evaluate

y\approx 5750.06

y≈5750.06

Luz drives at an average speed of 45 miles per hour. She has driven for 3 hours and has travelled a distance of 135 miles. This

Answer:

$(y-135)=45(x-3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of hours and y represents the number of miles.

We are told that Luz drives at an average speed of 45 miles per hour. She has driven for 3 hours and has traveled a distance of 135 miles.

We can see from our given information that slope of line is 45 as with each increase in number of hours (x), change in distance (y) is 45.

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{135-0}{3-0}$

$m=\frac{135}{3}$

$m=45$

Since the equation of line in point-slope form is : $(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)$ , where m represents slope of line and $(y_1,x_1)$ represents a point the line passes through.

Upon substituting our given values in point-slope form of equation we will get,

$(y-135)=45(x-3)$

Therefore, the equation represented in point-slope form will be: $(y-135)=45(x-3)$ .
