The investment made by Jessica in Fund B is $22500

It is given that,

When Jessica made an investment of $6000 in Fund A, the return she get is 2% profit

Profit with an investment of $6000 in Fund A  = 2 %

Let x be the investment made by Jessica in Fund B

Similarly, When Jessica made second investment of $x in Fund B, the return she get is 1% profit

Profit with an investment of $x in Fund B = 1%

It is also given that,

The total profit earned by Jessica in both Fund A and Fund B = 5%

6000+x = 5%

Now, we need to find we need to find the investment made by Jessica in Fund B i.e the value of x

Therefore, we get

2 x 6000 + x = 5(6000 + x)

120000 + x = 30000 + 5x

5x -x = 120000 - 30000

4x = 90000

x = 22500

Hence, the investment made by Jessica in Fund B is $22500

Answer these plssssssssssssssssssssss
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

15: Yes, no, yes, yes, no; 16A: C = ($0.29)X + ($1.45)Y + ($2.50)Z; 16B: Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

For question 15: We need to multiply the widths and lengths given to see if they equal the area we are trying to achieve. Therefore, some of them work, and some do not.

For question 16:

Part A: We'll set a variable for the number of each supply she can buy. Pencils will be represented by X, pens by Y and Notebooks by Z, and we'll represent total cost by C. The total cost will therefore be represented by C = ($0.29)X + ($1.45)Y + ($2.50)Z.

Part B: We'll plug the numbers of items she wants to buy into our formula and see if it comes out to less than $20. So in this case C = ($0.29)(3) + ($1.45)(4) + ($2.50)(2). Therefore, C = $11.67, which is less than $20, so she can afford her school supplies.
