Answer: $1487.50
Step-by-step explanation:
hey there again!
Facts:
Principal (starting amount): $1,400
Annual interest rate: 12.5% <em>of the principal. </em>Whenever you get an annual interest rate as a percentage, its always that percentage of the starting amount.
Time given: 6 months, 1/2 a year
the question asks "total amount due' in 6 months. Basically, we want to know how much they will have in their account after 6 months.
Step 1: Find how much interest he will get in 6 months <u>as a percentage.</u>
6 months is 1/2 of a year, so find 1/2 of 12.5
1/2 of 12.5
1/2 x 12.5
0.5 x 12.5
6.25%
Step 2: Find how much interest he gets, but as a number.
Principal: $1400
6.25% of 1400= $87.50
Step 3: Find the total amount of money he will have after 6 months.
he starts with 1400, and gets an additional $87.50 added to his account after 6 months. How much does he have now?
To answer this, add to find the total:
87.50+1400= $1487.50
Yes they are equal because lets say the rectangle's area is 14 and if you divide 14 into 2 it will be 7 and 7+7=14
Lets x = radius
x^2 + 10^2 = (x+8)^2
x^2 + 100 = x^2 + 16x + 64
16x = 100 - 64
16x = 36
x = 2.25
answer
B. 2.25
