Answer:
Gold
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Casandra finds a treasure chest packed with metallic coins. The chest has a volume of 0.25 cubic meters. The coins have a combined mass of 4825 kg. Hoping to find gold, she calculates the density to determine the metal of the coins.</em>
<em>What kind of metal are the coins made of?</em>
<em>Bronze (8700 kg per cubic meter)</em>
<em>Silver (10500 kg per cubic meter)</em>
<em>Lead (11300 kg per cubic meter)</em>
<em>Gold (19300 kg per cubic meter)</em>
<em />
Density is mass per volume:
D = M / V
D = (4825 kg) / (0.25 m³)
D = 19,300 kg/m³
The coins must be made of gold.
[x = amount earning 6% annually.]
(8000-x) = amount earning 15% annually
Then we set up our equation which is a sum of the 15% return and the 6% return and we let that sum equal our desired return on investment ($930). Then solve for x.
(8000-x)*.15 + x*.06 = 930
1200 - .15x + .06x = 930
.09x = 270
x = 3000.
Therefore, you should invest $3000 at 6% and $5000 at 15% to earn $930 annually.
