6% or 0.06 is the simple interest rate the bank pays him.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Sir Ving Spoon earned $5,436 on his $7,550 certificate of deposit.

From this given information,

It can be determined that the Principal amount is $7550 and the interest amount is $5436.

The CD is for 12 years. Therefore, the number of years is 12.

<u>To find the interest rate (r) :</u>

Using the simple interest formula,

Interest = P×r×t

where,

  • P is the principal amount = $7550
  • r is the rate of interest.
  • t is the number of years = 12

⇒ 5436 = 7550 × r × 12

⇒ 5436 = 90600 × r

⇒ r = 5436 / 90600

⇒ r = 0.06

Multiply by 100 to represent in rate %

⇒ r = 0.06 × 100

⇒ r = 6%

∴ 6% or 0.06 is the simple interest rate the bank pays him.

Find the coordinates of the point (x,y,z)(x,y,z) on the plane z=2x+3y+3z=2x+3y+3 which is closest to the origin.
Ainat [17]
The vector equation of the line through the origin perpendicular to the plane is
.. (x, y, z) = t(2, 3, -1)
so the point of interest will satisfy
.. 2(2t) +3(3t) -(-t) = -3
.. 14t = -3
.. t = -3/14
and its coordinates are (x, y, z) = (-3/7, -9/14, 3/14)

In planning her​ retirement, Liza deposits some money at 3.5​% ​interest, with twice as much deposited at 4.5​%. Find the amount
KATRIN_1 [288]

a = amount deposited at 3.5%

b = amount deposited at 4.5%

we know that "b" is twice as much as "a", thus b = 2a.

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{3.5\% of a}}{\left( \cfrac{3.5}{100} \right)a}\implies 0.035a \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{4.5\% of 2a}}{\left( \cfrac{4.5}{100} \right)2a}\implies 0.045(2a)

we also know that whatever "a" amount is, their sum is 2250, thus

0.035a+0.045(2a) = 2250\implies 0.035a+0.09a=2250\implies 0.125a=2250 \\\\\\ a=\cfrac{2250}{0.125}\implies \boxed{a=18000}~\hspace{10em}\boxed{\stackrel{2a}{b=36000}}
