Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of Niamah to Jack is 2:5, that means that for every 2 pencils that N gets, J gets 5. If there are a total of 21 pencils, then

2x + 5x = 21 and

7x = 21 so

x = 3.

That means that N gets 2(3) which is 6, and J gets 5(3) which is 15. Notice that 6:15 is the same ratio as 2:5 when it is reduced.

Use the formula for simple interest to find the interest rate if a deposit of $1400 earned $490 of interest after 5 years,
mario62 [17]
Given the simple interest formula:

I = P•R•T

where:
I = interest
P = principal
R = interest rate
T = time (in years)

We can isolate R algebraically to find out the interest rate:

I = P•R•T

Divide both sides by P•T:

I / (P•T) = (P•R•T)/(P•T)

The formula for the interest rate is:
R = I / (P•T)

Substitute the given values into this formula to solve for the interest rate (R):

R = I / (P•T)

R = $490/ ($1,400 • 5 years)
R = $490 / $7,000
R = 0.07 or 7%

Therefore, the interest rate is 7%.
