If N is a positive integer, it must be either even or odd. If N is odd, then N-1 will be even. If N is even, then N-1 will be odd. Either way, when you multiply n and n-1, one of those expressions is going to be an even number, and any number multiplied by an even number is an even number. Hope this helps! :)

A savings account earns 5% simple interest per year. The principal is $1200. What is the balance after 4 years?
stiv31 [10]
The formula of the Simple Interest is:
I=PRT
P for Principle Amount     ($1200)
R for Rate                        (5%=\frac{5}{100} = 0.05)
T for Time in years          (4 years)
I = 1200 × 0.05 × 4
  = $240

Add the interest to the principle amount to check the balance
$1200 + $240 = $1440

The area is found by base x height

To find the missing height in the first one you divide 147 by 15 3/4 and get 9 1/3. 
To find the missing base in the second one you divide 140 5/8 by 11 1/4 and get 12 1/2.
To find the missing height in the third one you divide 151 3/16 by 10 1/4 and get 14 3/4. 

Make me brainliest ! :)
