Answer:

Jenns account has the greater simple interest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is:

A=P*(1+r*t)

Where A is the final amount after investment, P is the initial amount, r is the rate of interest and t is the time periods.

For Lindsey:

253=250*(1+r*1)

Solve for r

r=(253/250)-1=0.012

Lindsey simple interest was 1.2% annually

For Jenn:

257.50=250*(1+r*2)

r=((257.50/250)-1)/2=0.015

Jenn simple interest was 1.5% annually

Therefore Jenns account has the highest simple interest rate.

How do you use the distributive property to solve for x in the equation -2(x + 5) = 4
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2(x + 5) = 4 ← distribute the parenthesis by - 2

- 2x - 10 = 4 ( add 10 to both sides )

- 2x = 14 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 7
