Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of ages= 40

Let the sons age be x

Fathers age = 3 times x or ,3x

So 3x+x=40

4x= 40

x= 40/4

= 10

Therefore the fathers age = 3x

= 3*10

= 30

amber deposits $870 in an account that has a simple interest rate of 8% per year. After 5 years, how much interest will Amber ha

charle [14.2K]

For simple interest, the formula is I = PRT, where I = interest, P = principal borrowed or deposited, R = rate as a decimal, and T = time in years.

Your information:
I = (870)(0.08)(5)
I = 348

Add the interest to the principal for your total balance

348 + 870 = $1218 will be the total balance in the account.

Answer:

The percent markup is, $\simeq$ 60.89 % .

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of shoes cost $ 22.99 to make, the local store sells them for $ 36.99.

So, the increased value for each pair of shoes,

= $ (36.99 - 22.99)

=$ 14

So, the percent markup is,

$\frac {14 \times 100}{22.99}$ %

$\simeq$ 60.89 %
