Hello,

Let's assume a the smaller number,b the larger.

a+b=80
a/b=3/5==>a=3/5*b

3/5b+b=80
==>8/5b=80
==>b=80*5/8
==>b=50
a=80-50=30
The lager number is 50

Jess deposited $5,000 into an account that earns simple interest. After 9 years, Jess had earned $3,150 in interest. What was th

musickatia [10]

Answer:

The interest rate of Jess's account was 7%

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P * (1 + rt)

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = annual interest rate

t = time (in years)

Replacing with the values we know:

A = P * (1 + rt)

8,150 = 5,000 * (1 + r * 9)

8,150/5,000 = 1 + 9r

1.63 = 1 + 9r

1.63 - 1 = 9r

0.63 = 9r

r = 063/9

r = 0.07 = 7%

The interest rate of Jess's account was 7%
