Answer:
Amount in 4% account: $550
Step-by-step explanation:
Use simple interest formula
where
I = interest
P = principal
r = rate (as decimal)
t = time.
<u>4% account:</u>

then

<u>5% account:</u>

then

You have earned $69.50 in total, so

Amount in 4% account: $550
Amount in 5% account: $950
Write a proportion first, change over original, like this:
8 x
16 100
(I got 8 because the difference between 24 and 16 is 8 and I got 100 because percents are out of 100.)
Cross multiply 8 by 100 and you get 800.
Divide 800 by 16 and you get 50.
It changed by 50%
Answer:
<u>15</u>
<u>2x</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
4x is the proportionality
Answer:
The answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hit 'em with the Law of Sines.
sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b.
Let's say x is equal to "A", thus 5 is "a".
sin(x)/5 = sin(B)/b.
We could go for the obvious choice for "B", which would be the 90 degrees shown. To solve for the hypotenuse which will be "b", let's use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 20^2 = c^2
25 + 400 = 425
sqrt(425) = about 20.6, which we can now substitute "b" with.
sin(x)/5 = sin(90)/20.6
sin(x)/5 = 1/20.6
sin(x)/5 = 0.04854...
sin(x) = 0.2427...
You can plug in sin^-1(0.2427) into your calculator, and you should end up with something like 14.047... which equates to answer choice C.
