Answer:

  • 3 pounds at $3.87
  • 19 pounds at $0.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of high-priced jelly beans sold. Then the total revenue was ...

  3.87x + 0.94(22 -x) = 29.47

  2.93x + 20.68 = 29.47 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  2.93x = 8.79 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  subtract 20.68

  x = 3  . . . . . . . . . divide by 2.93

3 pounds of $3.87 jelly beans were sold; 19 pounds of $0.94 jelly beans were sold.

How much would $200 invested at 7% interest compounded annually be worth after 5 years? Round your answer to the nearest cent. D
viktelen [127]
The future worth (F) of the investment at present (P) with a compound interest i after n years is calculated through the equation,
                                      F = P x (1 + i)^n
Substituting the known values,
                                      F = ($200) x (1 + 0.07)^5 = $280.51
Thus, the future worth of the investment is approximately $280.51.
