Suppose it takes 2 1/2 h to drive from your house to the lake at 48 mi/h. How long will your return trip take at 40 mi/h?

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer

The distance from the house to the lake is (2.5 hr)*(48 mi/hr) = 120 miles. The rerurn trip would take (120 mi)/(40 mi/hr) = 3 hours. Distance equals rate times time, so the distance to the lake is 2 1/2 hours times 48 miles per hour.

I hope this helps

Rich deposited money into a bank account that earned 2.5% simple interest each year. After 2 years, he had earned $14.65 in inte

photoshop1234 [79]

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

$I=Prt$

where

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

I is the amount of money in interest

r is the rate of interest

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

$t=2\ years\\ I=\$14.65\\r=0.025$

substitute in the formula above and solve for P

$14.65=P(0.025)(2)$

$P=14.65/[(0.025)(2)]$

$P=\$293$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

$\$293$
