You can use the proportion.
$4.99 / 1 kg = x / 1.8 kg
x = ($4.99 * 1.8 kg) / 1 kg
x = $8.98

Therefore, in 1.8 kg of potatoes, it costs at $8.98

17x-3y=4 2x-4y=1 the solution to the system of equations is

Burka [1]

ANSWER

$x=\frac{13}{62}$

and

$y= \frac{-9}{62}$ e have

EXPLANATION

$17x-3y=4---(1)$

$2x-4y=1$

Let us make y the subject and call it equation (2)

$2x=1+4y$

$x=\frac{1}{2}+2y--(2)$

We put equation (2) in to equation (1)

$17(\frac{1}{2}+2y)-3y=4$

$\frac{17}{2}+34y-3y=4$

$34y-3y=4- \frac{17}{2}$

Simplify to get,

$31y= \frac{8-17}{2}$

$31y= \frac{-9}{2}$

Divide both sides by 31,

$y= \frac{-9}{2} \div 31$

$y= \frac{-9}{2} \times \frac{1}{31}$

$y= \frac{-9}{62}$

We put this value in to equation (2) to get,

$x=\frac{1}{2}+2\times -\frac{9}{62}$

$x=\frac{1}{2} -\frac{18}{62}$

We collect LCM to obtain,

$x=\frac{31-18}{62}$

$x=\frac{13}{62}$

Samantha is taking out a loan for $17,452 at 6% simple interest for one year. How much interest will she pay?

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

She will pay $1,047.12 interest for one year

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest

Occurs when interest is calculated on the original principal only.

Unlike compound interest where the interest earned in the compounding periods is added to the new principal, simple interest only considers the principal to calculate the interest.

The interest earned is calculated as follows:

I=P.r.t

Where:

I = Interest

P = initial principal balance or loan

r = interest rate

t = time

Samantha takes out a loan for $17,452 at r=6%=0.06 simple interest for t=1 year. Calculating the interest:

$I=\$17,452*0.06 *1$

I = $1,047.12

She will pay $1,047.12 interest for one year
