Answer:
Charlene earns $700 per week
Kristi earns $550 per week
Sascha earns $800 per week
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Kristi earns 150 less than Charlene which is 100 less than Sascha, this is equal to the value of Sascha minus 250. We put this in the equation as s-250.
Together, they all earn $2050, so we must equal this to Charlene's value k+150, plus Kristi's value k, plus Sascha's value s.
<em>k+150+k+s=2050</em>
The next step here is to put the variables on one side and to put the numeric values on the other.
2k+s=1900
Like we said before, Kristi's value is equal to s-250, so we would replace k with that expression.
2(s-250)+s=1900
2s-500+s=1900
3s=2400
s= 800
We now have Sandra's weekly pay, which we can use to find the others' pay.
c= s-100
c= 800-100
c= 700
k= c-150
k= 700-150
k= 550
Answer:
<em>Lisa borrowed $8,500</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Simple Interest
</u>
Occurs when the interest is calculated on the original principal of a loan only.
Unlike compound interest where the interest earned in the compounding periods is added to the old principal, simple interest only considers the principal to calculate the interest.
The interest earned is calculated as follows:
I=Prt
Where:
I = Interest
P = initial principal balance
r = interest rate
t = time
Lisa took out a loan for t=5 months and was charged simple interest at an annual rate of r=4.8% = 0.048. She paid interest for I=$170.
We need to convert the time to years (there are 12 months per year):
t = 5 /12 years.
The formula must be solved for P:

Substituting:


Lisa borrowed $8,500
Answer:
$17, 280.00
Step-by-step explanation:
A= P(1+r)^t
A= 14000(1+0.043)^5
A= 17, 280
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2= 2/1
1/6 x 2/1
2/6=1/3
Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope of the line 2x-y=5 is 2
a perpendicular line has the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line
hopefully this helps :)
