Answer:

Amount in 4% account: $550

Step-by-step explanation:

Use simple interest formula $I=P\cdot r\cdot t,$ where

I = interest

P = principal

r = rate (as decimal)

t = time.

4% account:

$P_1=x\\ \\r_1=0.04\\ \\t_1=1,$

then

$I_1=x\cdot 0.04\cdot 1=0.04x$

5% account:

$P_2=1,500-x\\ \\r_2=0.05\\ \\t_2=1,$

then

$I_2=(1,500-x)\cdot 0.05\cdot 1=0.05(1,500-x)$

You have earned $69.50 in total, so

$I_1+I_2=69.50\\ \\0.04x+0.05(1,500-x)=69.50\\ \\4x+5(1,500-x)=6,950\\ \\4x+7,500-5x=6,950\\ \\4x-5x=6,950-7,500\\ \\-x=-550\\ \\x=550\\ \\1,500-x=1,500-550=950$

Amount in 4% account: $550

Amount in 5% account: $950

Write the expressions "Four times the difference of a number and 7 is 32", "One third of a number is 12 less than the number its

Anna71 [15]

Part 1) "Four times the difference of a number and $7$ is $32$ "

Let

x--------> the number

we know that

the expressions is equal to

$4(x-7)=32$

therefore

the answer part 1) is

$4(x-7)=32$

Part 2) "One third of a number is $12$ less than the number itself"

Let

x--------> the number

we know that

the expressions is equal to

$\frac{1}{3} x=(x-12 )$

therefore

the answer part 2) is

$\frac{1}{3} x=(x-12 )$

Part 3) "Ten increased by the quotient of a number and $2$ is $-15$ "

Let

x---------> the number

we know that

the expressions is equal to

$10+ (\frac{x}{2} )= -15$

therefore

the answer Part 3) is

$10+ (\frac{x}{2} )= -15$

Part 4) "One less than the product of a number and $3$ is $5$ more than the number itself"

Let

x---------> the number

we know that

the expressions is equal to

$(3x)-1=5+x$

therefore

the answer Part 4) is

$(3x)-1=5+x$
