To buy a computer, Raquel borrowed $3,000 at 9%
kumpel [21]

Answer:

$4080

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the amount she will pay back, but first, we need to find the Interest accrued.

Simple Interest is given as:

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

where P = principal

R = rate

T = time taken (in years)

Therefore, the interest on $3,000 at 9%  simple interest for 4 years is:

I = \frac{3000 * 9 * 4}{100}

I = $1080

Therefore, the amount she will pay back is:

$3000 + $1080 = $4080

You are biking at a speed of 18 miles per hour. You are 3 miles behind your friend who is biking at a speed of
labwork [276]

Answer:

12t -3 = 18t

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

d = your friends distance in miles

t = time in hrs

Your equation:

d - 3 = 18t (1)

Because you are 3 miles behind your friend

Your Friend's equation:

d = 12t (2)

To find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up with your friend,

Substitute (2) into (1)

d - 3 = 18t

12t - 3 = 18t

Equation to find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up to your friend is 12t - 3 = 18t

Solving the equation

12t - 3 = 18t

Collect like terms

12t - 18t = 3

-6t = 3

t = 3/-6

= -0.5

t = 1/2 hour

Time can not be negative, therefore it will take 1/2 an hour to catch up with your friend
