Step-by-step explanation:
Use the basic simple interest formula:
P * r * t = I and put the info into a table with those variables along the top, formig the columns we need:
P * r * t = I
Acct 1
Acct 2
If we have a total of 1500 to split up between 2 accounts, we put x amount of money into one and then have 1500-x left to put into the other. We will fill those in along with the interest rates in decimal form and the time of 1 year:
P * r * t = I
Acct 1 x .04 1
Acct 2 1500-x .05 1
Looking at the formula we are told that Prt = I, so we will multiply P times r times t and fill in the I column:
P * r * t - I
Acct 1 x .04 1 .04x
Acct 2 1500-x .05 1 .05(1500-x)
The total Interest earned by the addition of the interest earned from both accounts is 69.50. So we add the interest column together and set it equal to 69.50:
.04x + .05(1500 - x) = 69.50 and
.04x + 75 - .05x = 69.50 and
-.01x = -5.5 so
x = 550
That's how much money is in the account earning 4% interest.
Answer:
Height will have changed by -2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
change in height = (change in height/hour) × hours

Linda should use ...
15 gallons of 80% juice
5 gallons of 60% juice
_____
Let g represent the number of gallons of 80% juice needed. Then (20-g) is the number of gallons of 60% juice Linda will use. The amount of juice in the mixture can be written as
0.80g +0.60(20 -g) = 0.75×20
0.20g = 20(0.75 -0.60) = 20×0.15
g = 20×0.15/0.20 = 15
The amount of 80% juice needed is 15 gallons, so 5 gallons of 60% juice are needed.
