Answer: 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal= $1875

Time= 10 years

Interest= $1125

Rate = Unknown

Recall that,

Interest= (Principal×Rate×Time)/100

I = PRT/100

100I = PRT

R= (100×I)/PT

Rate = (100 × 1125)/(1875 × 10)

Rate = 112500/18750

Rate= 6%

The rate is 6%

Your little cousin will have a big animal-themed birthday party and you will help with the goody bags. Each bag will have a penc
Bas_tet [7]

Using the least common factor, it is found that:

  • a) 60 packages should be bought.
  • b) There will be 5 filled goody bags.

<h3>Least Common Factor:</h3>
  • The sizes of the packages are: 10, 6, 15 and 12.
  • To fill each bag and have no left-overs, the number of packages is the <u>least common factor</u> of these amounts.
  • The least common factor is found factoring the numbers into prime factors.

Item a:

10 - 6 - 15 - 12|2

5 - 3 - 15 - 6|2

5 - 3 - 15 - 3|3

5 - 1 - 5 - 1|5

1 - 1 - 1 - 1

Hence, lcf(10,6,15,2) = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60.

60 packages should be bought.

Item b:

Goody bags are in packages of 12, hence:

60/12 = 5.

There will be 5 filled goody bags.

What is the value of x?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:  x = 7

`Step-by-step explanation:

Because the figure shows two triangles that are similar. we can write and solve an equation of ratios:

 9 cm       72 cm

----------- = -----------

3x - 20      56 cm

Cross-multiplying, we get (3x - 20)(72 cm) = (9 cm)(56 cm) = 504 cm²

Dividing both sides by 72 cm, we get:

3x - 20 = (504 cm²) / (72 cm) = 7

Then 3x - 20 = 7, and 3x = 27.  Then x must be 9.
