The annual interest rate is 3.5%.
Solution:
Given Interest (I) = $26.25
Principal (P) = $500
Time (t) = 18 months
Rate of interest (r) = ?
Time must be in years to find the rate per annum.
1 year = 12 months
Divide the time by 12.
Time (t) =
years
Now, find the rate of interest using simple interest formula.
<u>Simple interest formula:</u>






⇒ r = 3.5%
Hence the annual interest rate is 3.5%.
It opens upward when X is an even power. It would be for X squared or X raised to the 4th power.
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage change is computed as follows:
percent change = ((new value) -(original value))/(original value) × 100%
For your first one, this looks like ...
percent change = ($25 -$75)/$75 × 100% = (-50/75) × 100% = -0.667×100%
percent change = -66.7%

When there are a lot of similar calculations to do, I like to use a spreadsheet. See below for the other percentage changes (rightmost column).
The oppiste of -2 2/3 is 2 2/3
If seeds are 8 per pound then you need to find the unit rate and make a proportion with how much she spent. So you can make a ratio of 1(pound) / $8 compared to x(pounds) / $10. Then, cross-multiply.
10 = 8x. Divide both sides by 8
10/ 8 = x Simplify the fraction
1 1/4 = x
So, she bought 1 1/4 pounds of seeds
