Find the simple interest Kara owes on a 1.5-year loan of $1,500 at an annual interest rate of 7.5%.

1 answer:

6 0

Annual interest ----- 7,5%
halfyear interest ---- x%
----------------------------------
x = 0,5 *7,5/1 = 3,75%

7,5% +3,5% = 11%

$1500 ---------- 100%
x ----------------- 11%
-----------------------------
X = 11*1500/100 = 165

so this mean that $165 is the simple interest what Kara owes on in a 1,5 year

Eliminate 3x+2y=4<br> 8x-3y=-6

laila [671]

Steps:
1. Multiply the first line by 3 and the second by 2
3(3x + 2y= 4)
2(8x -3y=-6)
2. New lines are
9x + 6y= 12
16x + -6y=-12
3. Now add/subtract them
25x + 0= 0
25x=0
4. Divide by 25
X=0

5. To find y, substitute the 0 in the x in one of the equations
9x + 6y= 12
9(0) + 6y= 12
6y= 12
6. Divide by 6, your Y=2
7. X=0, Y=2
