Answer:

#a. $80

#b. $1680

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • Amount invested (principal) is $1600
  • Rate of interest is 5%
  • Time = 1 year

We are required to determine the amount of simple interest earned and the amount or balance in the account after 1 year.

#a. Interest earned

To calculate simple interest we use the formula;

I = (PRT) ÷ 100

Where, P is the principal, R is the rate, T is the time and I is the simple interest.

Therefore;

I = (1600 × 5 × 1) ÷ 100

 = $80

Therefore, simple interest earned is $80

#b. Balance of the account (Amount accrued)

We are going to use the formula;

A = P + I , where A is the amount accrued, P is the principal and I is the simple interest earned.

Therefore;

Account balance = $1600 + $80

                            = $1680

Thus, the account balance after 1 year will be $1680

Counted a total of 40 white cars and yellow cars there were 9 times as many as white cars as yellow cars. how many white cars di
Law Incorporation [45]
Let W = number of white cars, and Y = number of yellow cars.
There were 9 times as many white cars as yellow cars. This means that the number of white cars was 9 times more than the number of yellow cars. This can be translated by the expression:
9Y = W
The person counted  40 cars in total:
W + Y = 40

So we get the system:
\left \{ {{W+Y=40} \atop {9Y=W}} \right.

In the first equation, we multiply by 9:
9W + 9Y = 360
In the second equation:
9Y= W
W-9Y = 0

Then we add the first with the second equation:
9W + 9Y + W - 9Y = 360
10 W = 360
W = 36

So He counted 36 white cars.

Hope this Helps! :)
