Answer:
assuming its an annual interest
Okay so 6 percent interest, the bank is paying you.
So with this it’s 6 percent of 1500 and add it to 1500.
You can always find 6 percent of 1500 and then add but here’s a short cut.
Your principle (beginning) balance is 1500.
That’s already 100 percent since thats yoru original value.
You then get added 6 percent interest.
We are jsut adding 6 percent to 100 percent so 106 percent.
Now we solve normally and you’d get the answer faster.
106 percent is 106/100 or 1 3/5 or 1.06
now we multiply
1500 * 1.06 = 1590
Your final balance would be 1590 after the 6 percent interest is added.
Answer:
Here, b represents one loaf of bread and m represents the one gallon of milk.
As per the statement:
Arah went to the grocery store and bought 4 loaves of bread and 1 gallon of milk for $12.
⇒
It is also given that the next week, Sarah bought 2 loaves of bread and 3 gallons of milk for $13.50.
⇒
Then; system of equation :
.....[1]
.....[2]
Solve for b and m using above system of equations.
Multiply equation [2] by 2 we get;
.....[3]
Subtract equation [1] from [3] we get;
Combine like terms;
Divide both sides by 5 we get;
m = $3
Substitute the value of m in equation [1] we get;
Subtract 3 from both sides we get;
Divide both sides by 4 we get;
b = $2.25
Therefore, cost of one loaf of bread (b) and one gallon of milk (m) are:
$2.25 ad $3
Don't get too involved in the 'simplify' part just yet.
It doesn't mean make the problem easier.
It means that when you have the answer, make sure it's in simplest form.
That's why it says "Simplify your answer".
Notice that that's the 2nd instruction.
There's nothing to simplify until you have an answer.
The first thing you have to do here is find the area of a triangle.
Do you remember that formula ?
I'll bet you do.
The area of a triangle is (1/2) · (length of the base) · (height) .
The height and the length of the base are given, right there
in the picture. Take those, and use them to find the area.
Once you've multiplied the binomials, don't forget about the (1/2).
Finally, you have a trinomial for an answer.
Put the big sweet cherry on top: Factor it !
I think that's the 'simplify' part.
You may be surprised.
I was when I worked it out just now ... just for you.
