In order to go to college, Hank goes from working full-time making $28,000 per year to working part-time at half the salary for two years. The cost of his education will be $5,000. If Hank makes $33,000 per year after getting his degree, approximately how many years will it take him to recover his investment?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is:

6.6 years.

Explanation:

Since he goes from making $28,000 per year to $14,000 per year, he will lose $14,000 each year that he works part-time. He intends to do this for 2 years; this will be a loss of $14000(2) = $28,000.

We will add the cost of his degree to this: 28,000+5,000 = $33,000.

He will be making $33,000 per year when he graduates. This is 33000-28000 = 5000 more per year than he made before.

To find out how many years it will take him to recover his investment, we divide the amount he loses, 33,000, by the extra amount he will make per year, 5000:

33000/5000 = 6.6

30 miles per hour.3,520 feet per minute.who runs faster and by how many miles per hour? There 5,280 feet in one mile

Answers

First let's convert 30 miles to feet.

30 x 5,280 = 158400

Now let's find how many feet the first person runs per minute.

158400/60 = 2640

The first person runs 2,640 feet per minute, and the second person runs 3,520 feet per minute.
Since the second person runs fast, let's find by how many miles per hour they're faster than the first person.

3520-2640 = 880
How many miles is 880 feet?
5280/880 = 0.17

The second person runs faster by 0.17 miles per hour.

Hope this helps! :)

Hello!

CORRECTION: "A white-tailed deer can sprint at speeds up to 30 miles per hour. American bison can run at speeds up to 3,520 feet per minute. Which animal is faster and by how many miles per hour? There are 5,280 feet in one mile. "

B: A bison is 10 miles per hour faster than a deer.

C: A deer is 0.66 miles per hour faster than a bison.

D: A bison is 0.66 miles per hour faster than a deer.

This is what you meant right!? ^^^

I've done this Question before, so i'll Help You Then!

We 1st off, have to convert the ft/min speed into miles/hour:

3520 feet ... 1 mile ..... 60 minutes ... 3520 x 60 miles
-------------- x ------------- x ---------------- = ---------------
1 minute ... 5280 feet .... 1 hour .......... 5280 hours

= (3520 * 60) / 5280
= 40 miles/hour

The Correct Answer Is:
B. The bison is 10 miles per hour faster than a deer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the type of equations 5x+y=31
-3x+4y=37
solve the first equation as y in terms of x
like y=.....

Answers

You just have to isolate the y term for both equations so the first one would be y=31-5x because you have to subtract x from both sides.

The second one would be y=3+3x and all of that over 4 because to get the y isolated, you have to add 3x to both sides and then divide by 4 to get 4 y to just be y.
