<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Mathew invested</em><em> $600 and $2400</em><em> in each account.</em>

<u>Solution:</u>

From question, the total amount invested by Mathew is $3000. Let p = $3000.

Mathew has invested the total amount $3000 in two accounts. Let us consider the amount invested in first account as ‘P’

So, the amount invested in second account = 3000 – P

Step 1:

Given that Mathew has paid 3% interest in first account .Let us calculate the simple interest (I_1) earned in first account for one year,

\text {simple interest}=\frac{\text {pnr}}{100}

Where  

p = amount invested in first account

n = number of years  

r = rate of interest

hence, by using above equation we get (I_1) as,  

I_{1}=\frac{P \times 1 \times 3}{100} ----- eqn 1

Step 2:

Mathew has paid 8% interest in second account. Let us calculate the simple interest (I_2) earned in second account,

I_{2} = \frac{(3000-P) \times 1 \times 8}{100} \text { ------ eqn } 2

Step 3:

Mathew has earned 4% interest on total investment of $3000. Let us calculate the total simple interest (I)

I = \frac{3000 \times 1 \times 4}{100} ----- eqn 3

Step 4:

Total simple interest = simple interest on first account + simple interest on second account.

Hence we get,

I = I_1+ I_2 ---- eqn 4

By substituting eqn 1 , 2, 3 in eqn 4

\frac{3000 \times 1 \times 4}{100} = \frac{P \times 1 \times 3}{100} + \frac{(3000-P) \times 1 \times 8}{100}

\frac{12000}{100} = \frac{3 P}{100} + \frac{(24000-8 P)}{100}

12000=3P + 24000 - 8P

5P = 12000

P = 2400

Thus, the value of the variable ‘P’ is 2400  

Hence, the amount invested in first account = p = 2400

The amount invested in second account = 3000 – p = 3000 – 2400 = 600  

Hence, Mathew invested $600 and $2400 in each account.

Answer:

For each of the possible outcomes add the numbers on the two dice and count how many times this sum is 7. If you do so you will find that the sum is 7 for 6 of the possible outcomes. Thus the sum is a 7 in 6 of the 36 outcomes and hence the probability of rolling a 7 is 6/36 = 1/6
