Answer:

The interest earned by Jessica after a year and a half of investment is $ 33.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must establish that simple interest is one in which interests are not added to capital. Therefore, interest in this case will always be calculated on the initial basis of $ 900.

That said, if Jessica invested $ 900 in her account, and said account grants a simple annual interest of % 2.5 per year, that account grants an interest of $ 22.5 per year (since 900 x 2.5 / 100 = 22.5). Therefore, to know the interest obtained in a year and a half, we must perform the following calculation:

22.5 (annual interest) + 22.5 / 2 (half-year interest) = X

22.5 + (22.5 / 2) = X = 33.75

Therefore, the interest obtained by Jessica after a year and a half of investment is $ 33.75.

If i got my calculations right $22.50 is 2.5% of $900 so $22.50 divided by 2 is $11.25, then i multiplied $11.25 x 3 to get a end result of $33.75. so then $900 plus $33.75 is $933.75 after a year and a half.

Tina sends 12 text messages each day in June. A mobile phone company offers two packages. Package A: The first 100 texts each mo
Mnenie [13.5K]

Two options are given to Tina. We find how much she pays for each option, and the one in which she pays less offers the better value.

Tina sends 12 text messages each day in June

June has 30 days, so in June, Tina sent 12*30 = 360 text messages.

Package A:

First 100 messages cost 3p, the next 100 cost $2 and after that each costs $1.

She sends 360 messages, with:

The first 100 costing 3p.

The next 100 costing 2p.

The final 360 - 200 = 160 costing 1p.

She pays:

100*3 + 100*2 + 160*1 = 660

Package B:

2p for each message, 360 messages, so:

360*2p = 720p.

Which package is better?

Package A costs less, thus, it offers her the better value for money in 30 days.

Another example of a problem in which a person has to choose between two packages is given in brainly.com/question/10693932
