Megan has $15,000 to invest. She is considering two investment options. Option A pays 3.2% simple interest. Option B pays 4.1% i
True [87]

wheee



Compute each option


option A: simple interest


simple interest is easy

A=I+P

A=Final amount

I=interest

P=principal (amount initially put in)


and I=PRT

P=principal

R=rate in decimal

T=time in years


so given

P=15000

R=3.2% or 0.032 in deecimal form

T=10


A=I+P

A=PRT+P

A=(15000)(0.032)(10)+15000

A=4800+15000

A=19800

Simple interst pays $19,800 in 10 years




Option B: compound interest

for interest compounded yearly, the formula is

A=P(1+r)^t

where A=final amount

P=principal

r=rate in decimal form

t=time in years


given

P=15000

r=4.1% or 0.041

t=10


A=15000(1+0.041)^{10}

A=15000(1.041)^{10}

use your calculator

A=22418.0872024

so after 10 years, she will have $22,418.09 in the compounded interest account





in 10 years, the investment in the simple interest account will be worth $19,800 and the investment in the compounded interest account will be worth$22,418.09

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

(x, y) = (-2, -3)

WORK:

2x + 4y = -16  =

-2x + 2y = -2  =

(^ the two’s cancel out) =

6y = -18  =

(^ you need to divide 6 on both sides to get just y) =

6y/6 = -18/6  =

(^ the six’s cancel out) =

y = -3  =

(^ now you have to plug this in to get x) =

2x + 4(-3) = -16  =

2x - 12 = -16  =

(^ you need to add 12 on both sides to get rid of it on the left side to add it to -16 on the right side) =

2x = -4  =

2x/2 = -4/2  =

(^ now you divide 2 on both sides again to get just y, and they will cancel out) =

x = -2  =

THEREFORE YOU GET (-2, -3)
