Yvonne put $4,00 in a savings account. At the end of three years, the account had earned $960 in simple interest.

1 answer:

7 0

Important variables to know:

I = interest
P = principal (investment)
R = simple interest rate
T = years

Formula: I = PRT

What information do we have?
I = $960
P = $4000
T = 3 years
R = ?

Plug into formula:

960 = 4000(3)(R)
960 = 12000R
R = 960/12000
R = .08

A. $4000 + $960 = $4960. (A= P+ I)
B. 8% (.08)

Part 2: 1080 = 4000*.09*3
A = 5080 - 4960 =$420.

There are 15 technicians and 11 chemists working in a research lab. They need to form a 5 person safety committee. In how many w

Burka [1]

<h2>There are a total 65,780 ways in which the committee can be made of 5 members.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total number of technicians in the lab = 15

The total number of chemists in the lab = 11

So, the total members in the lab = 15 + 11 = 26

So, there are total 26 eligible candidates in the lab from which committee of 5 people has to be made.

Now, since there is <u>no restrictions</u> on the choice, so the committee can be formed in nay way, such that:

It may or may not have any technician.

It may or may not have may chemists.

So, the number of ways 5 member can randomly be chosen from a committee of 26 people = $^{26} C_5$

$^{26} C_5$ = $^{26} C_5 = \frac{26!}{5! \times 21!} = 65,780$

Hence, there are a total 65,780 ways in which the committee can be made of 5 members.

5+656+-425*3/4<35-73*3/7

Komok [63]

The answer is false

if you solve both sides it says that 627.25 is less than 3.714 which isn't correct because 627.25 is obviously greater than 3.714

Write an inequality statement using greater than an less than to compare 0.008 and 0.01

klio [65]

.008<.01
The further the number gets from the decimal point, the smaller the number is. The number closest to the decimal point dictates whether the number is bigger or smaller than the other number. For example, .090001 is still greater than .0009999, since the nine is closer to the decimal.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{43^o}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Faucets}\to12\%\\\\p\%=\dfrac{p}{100}\to12\%=\dfrac{12}{100}=0.12\\\\12\%\ \text{of}\ 360^o\to0.12\cdot360^o=43.2^o\approx43^o$
