Walt made an extra $7000 last year from a part-time job. He invested part of the money at 10% and the rest at 7%. He made a total of $580 in interest. How much was invested at 7%?Select one:

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: We know that
Interest= PNR/ 100.
where P is the principal
R is the rate of Interest
 N is the no of years the sum has been invested for. 
Since N  is not given we assume that to be 1
Therefore we have 
10x /100 + (7000 -x)*7/100= 580

Multiplying both sides by 100
10x+(7000-x)*7 = 58000
simplifying
10x+ 49000 - 7x = 58000
3x = 58000-49000
3x = 9000
x= 3000
 therefore the sum of money invested at 7% = 7000 - 3000 = 4000



Answer 2
Answer:

Final answer:

Using the given conditions, we establish two equations. The first from the total invested amount which of 7000 dollars and the second from the total interest of $580. We solve the system of equations to find the value of x, which signifies the amount invested at 10%. The rest of the money (7000 - x) was invested at 7%.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to set up two equations based on the information given. These equations can be set up with the following assumptions: let us denote the amount of money invested at 10% as x and at 7% as 7000 - x.  

  1. First equation would be derived from the total amount invested which was $7000, so x + (7000 - x) equals to 7000.
  2. The second equation can be established from the total interest which was $580, so 0.10x + 0.07(7000 - x) equals to 580.

Solve the system of these two equations to find the value of x. The solution will yield the amount that was invested at 10%. The rest of the $7000, that is (7000 - x), was invested at 7%, which is what we're looking for.

Which of these is an example of discrete data?A. Rides in an amusement park
B. Temperature
C. Distance
D. Area of a room

Answers

Discrete data is numerical but only has a limited number of values.

In this case, the number of rides in an amusement park would be discrete because you cannot have, for example, 5.6 rides.

The correct answer is A.

Find the solutions to sin2(x) + cos(x) = 1, keeping 0 ≤ x < 2π

Answers

sin2(x) +cos(x)=1
from the relation: (sin2(x) +cos2(x) =1 )
so , sin2(x)=1-cos2(x)
by subs. in the main eqn.
1-cos2(x) + cos(x) =1
by simplify the eqn.
cos(x) -cos2(x)=0
take cos(x) as a common factor
cos(x)* (1-cos(x))=0
then cos(x)=0 && cos(x)=1
cos(x)=0 if x= pi/2
& cos(x) = 1 if x = 0 , 2*pi
so the solution is x= {0,pi/2 , 2*pi}

Answer:

Which statements did you include in your answer?

Isolate sin(x) by adding 4 and taking the square root of both sides.

State that sin(x) = 2 or sin(x) = –2.

State that –2 and 2 are undefined values  of the inverse sine function.

There are no solutions because –2 and 2 are not in the domain of the function.
