A law firm is going to designate associates and partners to a big new case. The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $400 and the daily rate for each partner is $1000. The law firm assigned a total of 16 lawyers to the case and was able to charge the client $11800 per day for these lawyers' services. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of associates assigned to the case and the number of partners assigned to the case. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Matthew Westhoven deposited $925 in a new regular savings account that earns 5.5% interest compounded semiannually for 1 year. 51.09 is the compound interest.

The interest you earn on interest is known as compound interest. Simple math may be used to demonstrate this: if you have $100 and it generates 5% interest annually, you will have $105 at the end of the first year. You will wind up with $110.25 at the conclusion of the second year.

Given that,

principal amount (P) = $925

number of times interest applied per time period (n) = semiannually = 6

number of time periods (t) = 1 year

Thus, formula becomes:

[tex]I = P (1 + r/n)^{nt} - P[/tex]

or, [tex]I = 925 (1 + 5.5/6*100)^{1*6} - 925[/tex]

or, [tex]I = 925 (1.009)^6 -925[/tex]

or, [tex]I = 925 *(1.055) -925[/tex]

or, [tex]I = 976.09 -925[/tex]

or, [tex]I = 51.09[/tex]

Thus, the compound interest becomes 51.09

The required length of AE will be 14 units on the given rhombus.

We know that all sides of a rhombus are equal, then note that AD equals DC, that is;

4x + 2 = 7x - 13

2 + 13 = 7x - 4x

15 = 3x

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

5 = x

If AD = 4x + 2, then when x  = 5

AD = 4(5) + 2

AD = 20 + 2

AD = 22

So, triangle ADE may now be separated, with AD measuring 22 units and ED measuring 17 units (midpoint between points B and D). Line AE may be determined using Pythagoras' theorem, which states:

AC² = AB² + BC²

Where AC is the hypotenuse, and AB and BC are the two other sides

Substituting for values as given in the question, we now have;

AD² = ED² + AE²

22² = 17² + AE²

484 = 289 + AE²

484 - 289 = AE²

195 = AE²

√195 = AE

13.96 = AE

So, length AE ≈ 14 units (to the nearest whole number)

Thus, the required length of AE will be 14 units on the given rhombus.

With a total pay last week of $4720 and a 2.5% commission on sales, she made 275 in sales.

In essence, percentages are fractions with a 100 as the denominator. We place the percent symbol (%) next to the number to indicate that the number is a percentage. For instance, you would have received a 75% grade if you answered 75 out of 100 questions correctly on a test (75/100). Rather than being expressed as a fraction, a percentage is a piece of a whole expressed as a number between 0 and 100. Nothing is zero percent; everything is 100 percent; half of something is 50 percent; and nothing is zero percent. You divide the part of the whole by the whole and multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage.

Here,

The money earned by sales=2.5%*600

=$15

Let the total sales be x,

600+15x=4720

Answer:

Approximately 2.6% of the total number of parking spots are designated as accessible.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of accessible parking spots to general parking spots is 2:75, this means that for every 2 accessible parking spots, there are 75 general parking spots. This can also be written as a fraction: 2/(2+75) = 2/77.

The fraction represents the proportion of the total number of parking spots that are designated as accessible. In this case, 2/(2+75) = 2/77 = approximately 0.026, or 2.6%. This means that approximately 2.6% of the total number of parking spots are designated as accessible.

It's important to note that the number of accessible parking spots should be determined based on the needs of the community and should meet or exceed the minimum requirements set by law. In the United States, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) sets minimum requirements for the number of accessible parking spaces that must be provided in public parking lots. The exact number of spaces required depends on the size and type of the parking lot.

The boy should throw the ball at a speed of 17.15 m/s.

Newton’s first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. This tendency to resist changes in a state of motion is inertia. If all the external forces cancel each other out, then there is no net force acting on the object.  If there is no net force acting on the object, then the object will maintain a constant velocity. His second law defines a force to be equal to change in momentum (mass times velocity) per change in time. Momentum is defined to be the mass m of an object times its velocity V.

From Newton's equations of motion,

v = u + at

Here, v = 0 m/s

a = g = -9.8 m/s²

t = 3.5/2 = 1.75 s

Put these values in the above equation:

u = v - at

u = 0 - (-9.8)(1.75)

∴ u = 17.15 m/s

Thus, the boy should throw the ball at a speed of 17.15 m/s.

y = 2/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To Literally Solve for y, we must first isolate it. This means putting it and its coefficient on the own side of the equation.

If you add, multiply, divide, subtract, put something to the power/root both sides of an equation, the final result will stay the same.

4x - 6y = 12

Subtract 4x on both sides.

4x - 4x -6y = 12 - 4x

The solution to the system of equations is x = −7 and y = −1.

To solve the given system of equations using an inverse matrix, we can represent the system in matrix form, Ax=B, then find the inverse of matrix A to solve for 'x'.

Given matrix:

[tex]\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x-6y=-1\\-2x+9y=5\end{array}\right[/tex]

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

First, we rewrite the system of equations in matrix for, Ax=B:

[tex]A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&-6\\-2&9\\\end{array}\right], \ x = \left[\begin{array}{cc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right], \ B = \left[\begin{array}{cc}-1\\5\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

So, Ax=B can be written as:

[tex]\Longrightarrow \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&-6\\-2&9\\\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{cc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}-1\\5\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\left\begin{array}{ccc}\text{The inverse of a 2x2 matrix,} \ \left(\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right), \ \text{is given by:}\\\\\\A^{-1}= \dfrac{1}{ad-bc}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}d&-b\\-c&a\end{array}\right)\end{array}\right}[/tex]

Here,

[tex]\Longrightarrow A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&-6\\-2&9\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

The determinant ∣A∣ is:

[tex]\Longrightarrow |A|=(1)(9)-(-6)(-2)=9-12\\\\\\\\\therefore |A|=-3[/tex]

Since the determinant is not zero, A has an inverse, which can be calculated as:

[tex]\Longrightarrow A^{-1}= \dfrac{1}{-3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}9&6\\2&1\end{array}\right)\\\\\\\\\therefore A^{-1}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}-3&-2\\-2/3&-1/3\end{array}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

We can solve for 'x' using x=A⁻¹B:

[tex]\Longrightarrow x = \left(\begin{array}{ccc}-3&-2\\-2/3&-1/3\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{cc}-1\\5\\\end{array}\right)[/tex]

Upon multiplication, we get:

[tex]\Longrightarrow x = \left(\begin{array}{cc}(-3)(-1)+(-2)(5)\\(-2/3)(-1)+(-1/3)(5)\\\end{array}\right)\\\\\\\\\Longrightarrow x = \left(\begin{array}{cc}3-10\\2/3-5/3\\\end{array}\right)\\\\\\\\\Longrightarrow x = \left(\begin{array}{cc}-7\\-3/3\\\end{array}\right)\\\\\\\\\therefore \boxed{\boxed{x=\left(\begin{array}{cc}-7\\-1\\\end{array}\right)}}[/tex]

Thus, the solution to the system of equations is x = −7 and y = −1.

Based on the triangle midsegment theorem, the length of CZ is calculated as: 7.2 m.

The triangle midsegment theorem states that when two sides of a triangle are joined together by a line segment at their midpoint, the line segment is called the midsegment, and it is parallel to the third side whose measure is twice its length.

This implies that, AB is a midsegment in the image shown for triangle XYZ. It is parallel to YZ.

Therefore:

AB = 1/2(the length of YZ)

Substitute the value of AB into the equation:

7.2 = 1/2(YZ)

2(7.2) = YZ

YZ = 14.4 m.

The length of CZ = 1/2(the length of YZ) [this is because YC = CZ]

CZ = 1/2(14.4)

CZ = 7.2 m.
