Answer: 8.76\%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the final amount after getting simple interest :

A=P(1+rt), where P is the principal amount , r is rate of interest ( in decimal )and t is time(years).

Given : Justin deposited $2,000 into an account 5 years ago.

i.e. P = $2,000 and  t= 5 years

He has just withdrawn $2,876.

i.e. we assume that A = $2876

Now, Put all the values in the formula , we get

(2876)=(2000)(1+r(5))\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1+5r=\dfrac{2876}{2000}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1+5r=1.438\\\\\Righhtarrow\ 5r=0.438\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=\dfrac{0.438}{5}=0.0876

In percent, r=0.0876\times100=8.76\%

hence, He earned 8.76\% of interest on account.

ANSWER.


The correct answer is Option A


EXPLANATION.


The real number

\sqrt{35}=5.916079783


to 9 decimal places.


You can see that the decimals are not repeating, neither will they terminate.



Therefore the real number \sqrt{35} is irrational because, the decimal does not terminate or repeat


Also note that,


\sqrt{35}=\sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{7} .


That is,

\sqrt{35} is a product of two irrational numbers, which still gives an irrational number.

The equation that corresponds to this diagram is 6 (x+ 1)=24.
Annette [7]

Answer:

x is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

6 (x + 1) = 24

6 (x) + 6(1) = 24

6x + 6 = 24

Subtract 6 on both sides

6x + 6 - 6 = 24 - 6

6x + 0 = 18

6x = 18

x = 18/6

x = 3
