1200 resulted $11.88 interest for 23 days. What is the interest rate

Mathematics

Lunna [17]3 years ago

now, let's notice that 23 days is not even a month let alone a year, assuming there are 365 days in a year, then 23 days is really 23/365 of a year.

\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\dotfill&\$11.88\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$1200\\ r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\ t=years\dotfill &\frac{23}{365} \end{cases}

\bf 11.88=(1200)(r)\left(\cfrac{23}{365} \right)\implies 11.88=\cfrac{(1200)(23)r}{365}\implies 11.88=\cfrac{27600r}{365} \\\\\\ 4336.2=27600r\implies \cfrac{4336.2}{27600}=r\implies 0.157\approx r \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{converting that to a percentage}}{0.157\cdot 100 \approx r}\implies \stackrel{\%}{15.7}\approx r

Someone please help me with this geometry question
marin [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x + 12 + (-8x + 48) = 180

-15x + 60 = 180

-15x = 120

x = -8

m<BDC= -7(-8)+ 12 = 56 + 12 = 68

m<CBA = -8(-8)+48 = 64+48 = 112
