Since you didn't provide the expressions, let X denote the prize money for the first position. Consequently, the amount for the second position would be X - 50, since <span>each place below first receives $50 less than the previous place. The amount for third place would then be X - 100.

Thus, the total prize money can be calculated by summing these amounts: X + (X - 50) + (X - 100) = 3X - 150.</span>

If rs 500 amounts to Rs 725 at 9% simple interest in sometime ,what will Rs 600amount to at 11% in same time?
AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

Rs\ 930

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating simple interest is

A=P(1+rt)

Here,

A refers to the Total Amount of Investment

P denotes the Initial Investment

r indicates the interest rate 

t represents the duration in time periods

step 1

Determine the duration t

For this scenario, we have

t=?\ years\\ P=Rs\ 500\\ A=Rs\ 725\\r=0.09

Plugging into the formula above and solving for t

725=500(1+0.09t)

t=[(725/500)-1]/0.09

t=5\ years

step 2

What will Rs 600 grow to at 11% over the same duration?

We have

t=5\ years\\ P=Rs\ 600\\ A=?\\r=0.11

Insert into the formula

A=600(1+0.11*5)

A=600(1.55)

A=Rs\ 930

Talia wants to write the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form. These are the steps she plans to use:
Zina [12379]

Examining Talia's steps to derive the line equation, we identify the erroneous step as detailed below:
Step 1:
Select a point on the line, such as (2,5)
Step 2:
<span>Select another point on the line, such as (1, 3)
Step 3:
</span><span>Measure units to find the slope. The line moves 1 unit to the right and 2 units upward, resulting in a slope of
(5-3)/(2-1) = 2/1 = 2
Step 4:
</span><span>Apply these values in the point-slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 3 = 2(x - 1)
y = 2x + 1
Hence, the conclusion is:
</span><span>Step 4 is erroneous due to incorrect application of (1, 3) in the point-slope format.</span>

The number of rainbow smelt in Lake Michigan had an average rate of change of −19.76 per year between 1990 and 2000. The bloater
Zina [12379]

Answer:

x = 11.33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for rainbow smelt is Y1 = −19.76x + 227

For bloater fish, the equation is Y2 = –92.57x + 1052

To find where these populations are equal:

–19.76x + 227 = –92.57x + 1052

Combine like terms:

-19.76x + 92.57x = 1052 - 227

72.81x = 825

Now divide by 72.81:

x = 825 / 72.81

Thus,

x = 11.33 years
