Answer:

  C.  2.0 < t < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

  time = distance / speed

The circumference of the lake is given by ...

  C = πd = 2π miles ≈ 6.28 miles

Then Johanna's time is ...

  (6.28 mi)/(3 mi/h) ≈ 2.09 h

This time is in the interval (2, 2.5), so matches choice C.

___

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If we take pi to be 3, then this boils down to ...

  2×3/3 = 2 . . . hours

Pi is on the order of 5% more than 3, so her time will be on the order of 5% more than 2 hours, or just above 2, but not as great as 2.5 hours. This sort of estimating can get you to the correct answer without a calculator.

We have been given that Anil borrows $80 000 to buy a business.  The bank gives him a loan, with an interest rate of 2% each year. We are asked to find the total amount paid back by Anil to bank after 10 years.

We will use simple interest formula to solve our given problem.

A=P(1+rt), where,

A = Final amount,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

t = Time in years.

Let us convert 2% into decimal.

2\%=\frac{2}{100}=0.02

We have P=\$80,000 and t=10, so we will get:

A=\$80000\left(1+0.02\cdot 10\right)

A=\$80000(1+0.2)

A=\$80000(1.2)

A=\$96,000

Therefore, Anil will pay \$96,000 to the bank after 10 years.
