Answer:
The money was left untouched for 2 years and 6 months or just 2.5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the time taken for an amount deposited to earn a certain amount of interest.
Mathematically, simple interest can be calculated using the formula;
I = PRT/100
where I is the interest accrued which is 3696.88 - 3,500 = 196.88
P is the principal which is the amount deposited = 3,500 according to the question
R is the rate which is 2.25% according to the question
T is the time which we are to find
we can rearrange the formula making T the subject and we obtain the following;
T = 100I/PR
substituting the values listed above we have;
T = (100 * 196.88)/(3500 * 2.25)
T = 19688/7875
T = 2.5 years or 2 years 6 months
Answer:
P = 2(x + 5) + 2(2x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
GIven that GR= x+5 and GP= 2x-3 which expression below calculates the perimeter of this gate?
The shape of the gate is rectangular.
Hence, the Perimeter of a rectangle (the gate) = 2L + 2W
Where :
L = GR = x + 5
W = GP = 2x - 3
Hence,the perimeter of the gate is
P = 2(x + 5) + 2(2x - 3)
Answer: -57
Step-by-step explanation:
15 + ( - 72)
Distribute
15 - 72
When this happens, you subtract the smaller number by the bigger one, then put the sign that was on the bigger number on what you get.
72 - 15 = 57
Put a negative sign on 57
-57
15 + (-72) = -57
Answer:
The slope of a parallel line is 2.
The slope of a perpendicular line is: -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line y=2x-8 is 2.
Parallel lines has the same slope.
Perpendicular lines has the negative reciprocal of the slope.
Answer:
x = -2y - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 2y = -4
Subtract 2y from both sides.
x = -4 - 2y
