If we multiply the second equation by 2 we get

a + 2/3b = 18 ............(3)
a + 3b = 39................(1) 
(1) - (3) gives:-
7/3 b = 21
b =  21 * 3/7 = 9 

plug b = 9 in equation (1):-

a + 3(9) = 39 

a = 39-27 = 12 

Answer:- a = 12 and b = 9.

Find the interest due on $600 at 9.5% for 120 days.
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Interest= $ 18.73

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $600 at 9.5% for 120 days

To find : Find the interest due

Solution :

Simple interest formula  I=P\times r\times t

Principle(P)=$600 , rate(r)=9.5%=0.095 , time (t)= 120 days

In years, 1 year = 365 days

1 day = \frac{1}{365} year

120 days = \frac{120}{365} year

Put values in the formula

I=P\times r\times t

I=600\times 0.095\times\frac{120}{365}

 I=\frac{6840}{365}=18.73

Therefore, Interest= $ 18.73
