Answer:

Tim will have the most money to spend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Staci puts $3,000 in a saving account with a simple interest rate of 5.5%.

His maturity amount will be calculated by the formula of simple interest =

A = P(1+rt)

A = 3,000(1+(0.055×5))

A = 3,000(1+0.275)

A = 3000 × 1.275 = $3,825

Staci will get $3,825 after 5 years

Carmen invests $3,200 in an account with a simple interest rate of 4%.

A = 3,200(1+(0.04×5))

A = 3,200 ( 1+0.2)

A = 3,200 × 1.2 = $3,840

Carmen will get $3,840 after 5 years.

Tim invests 2,500 in an account with a 9% interest rate that is compounded annually.

Now we will calculate the maturity amount of Tim by using this formula

A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

A =  2,500(1+\frac{0.09}{1})^{(1)(5)}

A =  2500(1+0.09)^{5}

A = 2500(1.09)^{5}

A = 2,500 × 1.54 = $3,846.56

Tim will get $3,846.56 after 5 years

Tim will have the most money to spend.

Solve -8/5 x - 6 = -54
Musya8 [376]
The equation is false so no solution.

Simplify 8/5 * -6 to -48/5

Move the negative sign to the left

Simplify brackets

Since 48/5 = -54 its false so no answer
