Money_Word_Problems/475602: A man invested $2000, part at 8% and part at 6%. He earned $144
from his investments. How much did he invest at 8%
1 solutions

Answer 326129 by mananth(12270) About Me  on 2011-07-28 20:36:10 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Investment I 8.00% per annum
Investment II 6.00% per annum

x+y=2000 ------------------------1
8.00% x + 6.00% y = $144.00
Multiply by 100
8x+6y= $14,400.00 --------2

Multiply (1) by -8
we get

-8x-8y= -16000.00

Add this to (2)

-2y=-$1,600.00

divide by -2

y=$800.00 investment at 6.00%
Balance $1,200.00 investment at 8.00%

Graphs/475339: Line/ goes through the point (5,2) and is perpendicular to the line through(-2,1) and (-4,-2). Find the equation (in slope form) for/.
1 solutions

Answer 325982 by mananth(12270) About Me  on 2011-07-28 09:03:28 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
slope of line passing through (-2,1) & (-4,-2)
x1 y1 x2 y2
-2 1 -4 -2

slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
( -2 - 1 )/( -4 - -2 )
( -3 / -2 )
m= 1.50 OR 3/2
The line perpendicular to this line will have a slope of -2/3
Equation of line with slope -2/3 and passing through (5,2)
Find the intercept b
Plug value of the slope -2/3 and point (5,2) in
Y = m x + b
2.00 = -3.75 + b
b= 2 +3.75
b= 5.75
So the equation will be
Y = -0.75 x + 5.75

Travel_Word_Problems/475255: amadeus could travel 760 miles in twice the time it took his nemesis Saleri to travel 220 miles. If amadeus's rate exceeded that of Salieri by 40 miles per hour, find the rates and times of both men.
1 solutions

Answer 325958 by mananth(12270) About Me  on 2011-07-28 05:22:43 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Saleri x 220 miles
Amadeus x 40 760 miles

t=d/r
2*(220 / x) = 760 / ( x + 40 )
Cross multiply
440 ( x + 40 ) = 760 * x
440 x + 17600 = 760 x
760 x -440 x = 17600
320 x = 17600
/ 320
x = 55 Saleri mph
95 Amadeus mph

3x + y = 4
y= -3x+4.............1
-6x - 2y =6
2y=-6x-6
y=-3x+2.............2
The slope of both lines are -3 so they are parallel.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Radius of flower bed = 66m
Radius of flower bed + path = 70m
total area - area of garden = area of path
(22/7)*70*70- (22/7) * 66 * 66
=1709.7 m^2

I think you need to calculate the surface area.
2lw+2lh+2wh
2*(29*19+19*1.5+1.5*29)=1246 sq.ft

1 solutions

Answer 325907 by mananth(12270) About Me  on 2011-07-28 01:12:59 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
total distance = 68
running distance =x
running speed = 8 mph
walking distance = 68-x
walking speed = 4 mph
time running + time walking = 12
t=d/r
x/8 + (68-x)/4= 12
LCD = 8 multiply by 8
x+2(68-x)=8*12
x+136-2x=96
-x=96-136
-x=-40
x=40
distance run = 40 miles
Balance he walked

Answer 325902 by mananth(12270) About Me  on 2011-07-28 00:58:10 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
boat speed = x mph
current = 3 mph
against current speed = x-3
with current speed = x+3
let y be the distance .
downstream t= y/(x+3)............1
upstream 2t = y/(x-3)............2
multiply (1) by 2
2t=2y/(x+3)
Therefore y/(x-3)=2y/(x+3)
1/(x-3)=2/(x+3)
2(x-3)=x+3
2x-6=x+3
2x-x=6+3
x=9 mph speed of boat

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Distance = same= 3000
plane speed =x
wind speed =y
t=d/r
3000 / ( x - y )= 10.00
10 ( x - y ) = 3,000.00
10 x -10 y = 3000 ....................1
3000 / ( x + y )= 5.00
5.00 ( x + y ) = 3000
5.00 x + 5.00 y = 3000 ...............2
Multiply (1) by 1.00
Multiply (2) by 2.00
we get
10 x + -10 y = 3000
10 x + 10 y = 6000
20 x = 9000
/ 20
x = 450 mph plane speed

plug value of x in (1)
10 x -10 y = 3000
4500 -10 y = 3000
-10 y = 3000 -4500
-10 y = -1500
y = 150 mph wind speed
