Answer:

$5225

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for the amount after simple interest: A = P(1 + rt)

"A" is the final amount, or balance.

"P" is the principal, or the starting amount.

"r" is the rate of interest in decimal form.

"t" is the time.

What we know:

P = 5000

t = 3

r = 1.5%

Convert the rate to decimal form by dividing by 100, or moving the decimal place two places to the left.

1.5% => 0.015 = r

Substitute what we know into the formula:

A = P(1 + rt)

A = 5000(1 + (0.015)(3))     <=simplify

A = 5000(1 + 0.045)

A = 5000(1.045)

A = 5225     <= new balance

The new balance of an account is $5225.

In a shipment of airplane parts, 5% are known to be defective. If 21 parts are found to be defective, how many parts are in the
horrorfan [7]

We can use ratios and the cross-multiply-divide to find this.



The ratio 21:5 is avaliable via the question. We then need to compare that to the ratio x:100, the 100 being the percent and the x being the number of airplane parts.



21/5 = x/100



We can then solve for x to find the number of airplane parts. First we multiply by 100 on both sides to get 2100/5 = x. Therefore x = 420 and there are 420 airplane parts.
