Answer:
It seems each number is 3 less than the previous number.
We must sum these 10 numbers
40, 37, 34, 31, 28, 25, 22, 19, 16, 13
The sum would equal the average of the middle 2 numbers times 10.
(28 + 25) / 2 = 53 / 2 = 26.5
We multiply by 10 because there are 10 numbers and this equals
265
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the average number of books donated per month, we first get the total number of books that Eric has donated within the span of (8 - 3) = 5 months.
Since from 157 books, there were only 102 books left after 5 months, that means he has donated (157 - 102) = 55 books.
That means that he has donated 55 books within the span of 5 monhs. Thus, the average number of books would be equal to (number of books) / (number of months) = 55 / 5 = 11 books per month.

Answer:
"She invested $2500 in 5% account and $5500 in 8% account"
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount invested in 5% account be "x"
So, the amount invested in 8% account would be "8000 - x"
Interest amount is the percentage multiplied by amount invested. So
Interest of 5% account = 5% of x = 0.05x
Interest of 8% account = 8 % of 8000 - x = 0.08(8000 - x)
Total interest is the sum of these 2 expressions that EQUATES to 565 (given). Let's solve for x:

and thus,
"8000 - x" = 8000 - 2500 = 5500
Hence,
She invested $2500 in 5% account and $5500 in 8% account
