Agree with the girl making the bows because to make three bows all you need is 3/5 feet of ribbon, which isn’t even a full foot
The answer to this question is 5x3-3x2-5x+3
the number is how many years
For simple interest, the formula is I = PRT, where I = interest, P = principal borrowed or deposited, R = rate as a decimal, and T = time in years.
Your information:
I = (870)(0.08)(5)
I = 348
Add the interest to the principal for your total balance
348 + 870 = $1218 will be the total balance in the account.
