Answer:

salary=120000

1/4×120000=30000= money spent

remainder=120000- 30000

= 90000

money spent on clothing =1/2×90000

=45000

Explanation: If his salary is $120,000 and 1/4 is used on food he has a remaining of $80,000. He uses 1/2 on clothing so he has a remainder of $40,000 so now we know that he used $40,000 on clothing

Answer: $40,000

Hope this helps you! :D

Tom borrowed $35,000 to remodel his house. At the end of 5-year loan, he had repaid a total of $46,375. At what simple interest
Wewaii [24]
The formula for simple interest is <em>I</em> = <em>prt</em>, where <em>I</em> is the amount of interest, <em>p</em> is the principal borrowed, <em>r</em> is the interest rate written as a decimal number, and <em>t</em> is the amount of time in years.  First we find the amount of interest.  He borrowed $35000 but paid back $46375.  That means he paid 46375-35000 = $11375 in interest.  We can now substitute our information into our interest formula:
11375=35000(<em>r</em>)(5)
11375=35000(5)(<em>r</em>) ----- remember that multiplication is commutative
11375=175000<em>r</em>
Divide both sides by 175000 to cancel it:
11375/175000 = 175000<em>r</em>/175000
0.065 = <em>r</em>
To convert this to a percentage, we multiply by 100:
0.065(100) = 6.5%

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Subtract 7e from both side

2e - 7 = -11

Add 7 to both sides

2e = -4

Divide by 2 to isolate e

e = - 2
