<h2>Answer:</h2>

x =  \frac{22}{3}

<h3>alternative form:</h3>

x = 7 \frac{1}{3}  \: or \: x = 7.33333333333

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

2(3x + 1) = 17 - 3( x - 17) \\ distribute \\  \\ 6x + 2 = 17 - 3x  + 51 \\ add \: 3x \: from \: both \: sides \\  \\ 9x + 2 = 17  +  51 \\ add \: 17 \: to \: 51 \\  \\ 9x + 2 = 68 \\ subtract \: 2 \: from \: both \: sides \\  \\ 9x = 66 \\  divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 9 \\  \\ x =  \frac{22}{3}

An account earns simple interest. (a) Find the interest earned. (b) Find the
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

#a. $80

#b. $1680

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • Amount invested (principal) is $1600
  • Rate of interest is 5%
  • Time = 1 year

We are required to determine the amount of simple interest earned and the amount or balance in the account after 1 year.

#a. Interest earned

To calculate simple interest we use the formula;

I = (PRT) ÷ 100

Where, P is the principal, R is the rate, T is the time and I is the simple interest.

Therefore;

I = (1600 × 5 × 1) ÷ 100

 = $80

Therefore, simple interest earned is $80

#b. Balance of the account (Amount accrued)

We are going to use the formula;

A = P + I , where A is the amount accrued, P is the principal and I is the simple interest earned.

Therefore;

Account balance = $1600 + $80

                            = $1680

Thus, the account balance after 1 year will be $1680
