We solve the question as follows:
Simple interest=Principle×Rate×Time
Thus given:
p=$55000, R=2.5%, time= 1 year
thus
Interest=55000×0.025×1=$1375
To evaluate the amount required to keep up with the inflation, your interest rate should match the inflation rate otherwise prices are going up faster than the savings.
Required interest rate=55000×0.034×1=$1870
The buying power lost will be the difference between your required interest and actual interest.
Thus:
Buying power lost=1870-1375=$495
Answer:
SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
We must prove that triangles ABC and EDC are congruent.
Since BD bisects AE, then AC is congruent with CE.
Since AE bisects BD, then BC is congruent with CD
Angle C is 90° in the triangle EDC and is also 90° in triangle BCA because they are vertical angles.
Being two sides and the included angle congruent, then both triangles are similar by the SAS theorem.

Answer:
125 defective jeans
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that;
During inspections, 5 defective pairs of jeans are found in a shipment of 200 pairs of jeans .
We are supposed to determine the number of defective jeans in a shipment of 5000 pairs, if the trend continues.
Therefore;
5 defective = 200 pairs
What about in 5000 pairs?
Number of defective pairs = (5000 × 5 ) ÷ 200
= 125 defective pairs
Thus, in a shipment of 5000 pairs of jeans there will be 125 defective pairs
