They had to pay $75 just to use the table, before they ever sold a basket.
How many baskets do they have to sell to earn that $75 back ?

Each basket costs them $12 to make, and they sell it for $20.
So every time they sell a basket, they earn (20 - 12) = $8 .

How many times do they have to earn $8 in order to earn back the $75 ?

1 basket . . . . . . 1 x $8 = $  8 . . . . . not enough
2 baskets . . . . . 2 x $8 = $16 . . . . . not enough
3 baskets . . . . . 3 x $8 = $24 . . . . . not enough
4 baskets . . . . . 4 x $8 = $32 . . . . . not enough
5 baskets . . . . . 5 x $8 = $40 . . . . . not enough.
6 baskets . . . . . 6 x $8 = $48 . . . . . not enough
7 baskets . . . . . 7 x $8 = $56 . . . . . not enough

8 baskets . . . . . 8 x $8 = $64 . . . . . not enough

9 baskets . . . . . 9 x $8 = $72 . . . . . ooh so close, but not quite enough

10 baskets . . . . 10 x $8 = $80 . . . That's it ! 
                                                             Finally, they earned back the $75,
                                                             and they're $5 ahead of all of
                                                             their expenses.

Cluseposited $3,500 into a savings account 2 years ago. The simple interest rate is 4% how much
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Simple! She earned $280

Step-by-step explanation:

3500 x 2 x 4 = 28000/100 = 280

In 10yrs operating on the same frequency of rate, she's gonna earn;

3500 x 10 x 4 = 140000/100 = $1,400.

Therefore, $1400 dollars is what she's gonna earn in 10 years time.
