3600 dollars is placed in an account with an annual interest rate of 9%. How much will be in the account after 25 years, to the

Mnenie [13.5K]

Assuming the interest is simple interest, as opposed to compound interest,

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount}\\\\
A=P(1+rt)\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$3600\\
r=rate\to 9\%\to \frac{9}{100}\to &0.09\\
t=years\to &25
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=3600(1+0.09\cdot 25)\implies 3600(3.25)$

Tisha and her academic team are working to go to state finals. They must have a certain number of points to advance. They have h

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

$b=\frac{T-a-c-d}{3}$

b = (T - a - c - d) / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T be the total number of points required to advance.

a, c and d are points scored in the local matches, and b is the number of points scored in the district match. If b is worth 3 times as much as the other matches, the total number of points is given by:

$T=a+c+d+3b$

Isolate b in order to find out how many points they need in the district match:

$T=a+c+d+3b\\3b=T-a-c-d\\b=\frac{T-a-c-d}{3}$

They need to score (T - a - c - d)/3, in the district match in order to win.
