Angelica's salary this year is 14% higher than it was four years ago. If she earns $46,170.00 this year, what did she earn four

Alona [7]

Answer:

D. $39,706.20

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, you are subtracting 14%. A way you could do this is buy finding 14% of $46,170.00, then subtracting that from itself. Or instead, you could find 86%. This works because its like your subtracting 14% from the whole 100%. so 100 - 14 = 86.

Method 1:

$46,170.00 x 0.14 = 6463.8

$46,170.00 - 6463.8 = 39706.2

Method 2:

100 - 14 = 86

$46,170.00 x 0.86 = 39706.2

either way the answer is still correct. i hope this make sense and that it helps you!

A trust fund worth $25,000 is invested in two different portfolios, this year, one portfolio is expected to earn 5.25% interest

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The amount of money that should be invested at the rate of 5.25% is $12,000 and the amount money that should be invested at the rate of 4% is $13,000

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

$I=P(rt)$

where

I is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest

t is Number of Time Periods

Let

x ------> the amount of money that should be invested at the rate of 5.25%

25,000-x -----> the amount money that should be invested at the rate of 4%

in this problem we have

$t=1\ year\\ P_1=\$x\\P_2=\$(25,000-x)\\r_1=0.0525\\r_2=0.04\\I=\$1,150$

substitute in the formula above

$I=P_1(r_1t)+P_2(r_2t)$

$1,150=x(0.0525*1)+(25,000-x)(0.04*1)$

Solve for x

$1,150=0.0525x+1,000-0.04x$

$0.0525x-0.04x=1,150-1,000$

$0.0125x=150$

$x=\$12,000$

$|$25,000-x=\$13,000$

therefore

The amount of money that should be invested at the rate of 5.25% is $12,000 and the amount money that should be invested at the rate of 4% is $13,000
