One hour is equal to 60 minutes. That gives you a fraction of 40 pages/60 minutes.

You don't know how many pages they can read in 90 minutes, so you would do
x pages/90 minutes.

The equation you would set up is 40/60 = x/90.

After cross multiplying you get 60x = 3600. Divide both sides by 60 to isloate the x, and you end up with x = 60.

A proofreader who can read 40 pages in one hour (60 minutes) can reading 60 pages in 90 minutes.

Find the number of years it would take for $1200 to earn simple interest of $324 at an annual interest rate of 6% per year
topjm [15]

ANSWER

It would take 45 good years

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

We calculate simple interest using the formula,

I=\frac{P\times T\times R}{100}


From the question,


I=324 dollars


R=6%

and

P=120 dollars


We substitute into the above formula

324=\frac{120\times T\times 6}{100}


324=\frac{720\times T}{100}

324\times100=720\times T


\frac{324\times100}{720}=T



\frac{324\times10}{72}=T


45=T


Therefore it would take 45 years.
