Two bond funds pay interest at rates that differ by 4%. Money invested for one year in the first fund earns $550 interest. The same amount invested in the other fund earns $770. Find the lower rate of interest. %

10% interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest I = PRT/100

If the rate R = x% we have

550 = P*x *1 / 100

and

770 = P*(x + 4) * 1 / 100

so From  first equation

Px = 55000  and from the second

Px + 4P =  77000

So Px = 77000 - 4P

Therefore  77000 - 4P = 55000

4P = 22000

P = 5,500

So x = 55000/5500 = 10%.

And  the rate for the other fund is 10 + 4 = 14%.

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.

1 1/7 hope i

step-by-step explanation:

8/7 = (1 * 7 + 1) / 7 = 1 + 1/7 = 1 1/7
