Currently 100 students can eat for 20 days, so we need to find the number of days 125 students can eat.

Originally:
100 students eat for 20 days

New:
125 students eat for x days. Multiply original number of students by original number of days which will give the total amount of students per day. Then divide the total amount of students per day by the new number of students to find the new number of days.

x= (100 students * 20 days)/ (100+25)
x= (100 * 20)/ 125
x= 2000/125
x= 16 days

ANSWER: 125 students can eat for 16 days.

Hope this helps! :)

You have a part time job in your junior year of high school. You need to borrow $2,000 to purchase a used car to drive to work.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

$149.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Calculate Total Amount payable to the bank using compound interest

Total Amount payable (A) =

P(1 + r/n)^nt

P = Principal = $2000

r = Interest rate = 9% = 0.09

n = compounding interest = quarterly = 4

t = time in years = 2

Total Amount payable

= 2000(1 + 0.09/4)^0.09 × 2

A = $ 2,389.66

Interest = A - Principal

= $ 2,389.66 - $ 2,000.00

I (interest) = $ 389.66

Step 2

Calculate the Total amount payable to his uncle using simple interest.

Total Amount (A) = P(1 + rt)

P = Principal = $2000

r = Interest rate = 6% = 0.06

t = time in years = 2

A = 2000(1 + 0.06 × 2)

A = $2,240

A - Principal

= $ 2,240 - $ 2,000.

I (interest) = $240

Step 3

The amount of money you will save by borrowing the money from your uncle is calculated as:

Amount payable to the bank - Amount payable to your uncle

= $ 2,389.66 - $2,240

= $149.66

Therefore, the amount of money you will save by borrowing the money from your uncle is $149.66
