Alinara [238K]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go to a baseball park and ask what their favorite sport is most will probably say baseball. Just as if you go to a basketball court, most would respond with basketball as their favorite sport. I suggest not going to anything related to sports and asking random people.

A bank manager wants to encourage new customers to open accounts with principals of at least $2 comma 500. He decides to make a

prisoha [69]

Answer:

To earn $10 in 1st month, the principal must be $4,000.

No, the poster cannot claim that "Open an account of $2 comma 500 and earn at least $10 interest in 1 month!".

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a bank manager wants to encourage new customers to open accounts with principals of at least $2,500. He decides to make a poster advertising a simple interest rate of 3%. We are asked to find the principal to advertise that one can earn $10 the first month.

We will use simple interest formula to solve our given problem.

$I=Prt$ , where,

I = Amount of interest,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

t = Time in years.

$r=3\%=\frac{3}{100}=0.03$

1 month will be equal to $\frac{1}{12}$ .

$\$10=P\cdot0.03\cdot \frac{1}{12}$

$\$10=0.0025P$

$\frac{\$10}{0.0025}=\frac{0.0025P}{0.0025}$

$P=\$4000$

Therefore, to earn $10 in 1st month, the principal must be $4,000.

Now, we will check if an account of $2,500 can earn at least $10 interest in 1 month.

$I=\$2500\cdot 0.03\cdot \frac{1}{12}$

$I=\$6.25$

Since the account earns an amount of $6.25 in one month, therefore, the poster is not true.

Write a real-world problem that could be represented by the expression 3(23). Then explain how you could solve the problem menta

Natalija [7]

3(23) really means 3*23, or just 3 multiplied by 23. For example: "Jana has 23 dollars. Her friend John has $23, and his friend Jacob also has 23 dollars. How much money do they have all together?" To solve this problem mentally, you could break 3*23 into two numbers you're familiar with multiplying, like 20 and 3, and then add the numbers together. For example: 3*20 + 3*3. 3*20=60, 3*3=9, and 60+9=69. So, 3*23=69.
