Answer:

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark deposits $12,000 at the rate of interest 4% for 5 years.

Saul deposits $10,000 at the rate of interest 6% for 8 years.

So first we calculate the maturity amount of both by using the formula :

A = P (1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

First we calculate Mark's deposit

A = 12,000( 1+0.04/1)^{1(5)}

A = 12,000( 1.04)^{5}

A = 12,000 + 2,599.83 = 14,599.83

Mark's maturity amount would be $14,599.83.

Now we calculate the maturity amount of Saul.

A = 10,000 (1+0.06/1)^{(1)8}

A = 10,000 (1.06)^{8}

A = 10,000 + 5,938.48 = 15,938.48

Saul's maturity amount would be $15,938.48

Therefore to get how much Saul's amount is greater than Mark's account

15,938.48 - 14,599.83 = 1,338.65 rounded to $1,339

Saul's account earned $1339 more interest than Mark's account.

What is the elimination of 20x+5y=120 and 10x+7.5=80
Grace [21]
20x+5y=120
10x+7.5y=80    multiply this one by 2
___________

20x+5y=120
20x+15y=160   subtract 

___________

        -10y=-40    divide both sides by -10 
____________

             y=4         

20x+5(4)=120   plug 4 in for y in the first equation 
20x+20=120     multiply 
20x=100           subtract 
x=5                   divide to find x
