L+S=8, L=8-S

500L+200S=2200, using L from above in this equation gives you:

500(8-S)+200S=2200

4000-500S+200S=2200

4000-300S=2200

-300S=-1800

S=6, and since L=8-S:

L=2

So Rita bought 2 large packets and 6 small packets.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

J Compound interest; $298.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest compounding pays interest on the interest. For the same annual rate, any amount of compounding will earn more interest.

For short time periods, the effect of compounding is not great. In general, it will be a fraction of the equivalent simple interest rate. Here, the effective multiplier for annual compounding is ...

  1.051^4 = 1.22024337

and the effective multiplier for simple interest is ...

  1 +0.051·4 = 1.204

Then the difference in interest rate multiplier for the 4-year period is ...

  1.22024337 -1.204 = 0.01614337

That fraction of the $18500 principal is $298.65.

Compound interest earns $298.65 more than simple interest in this scenario.

Hope this helps, have an amazing day!
