X/y= 5/7

x+y=372

x=5/7y

5/7y+y=372


12/7y=372

y = 372(7/12)= 217


x= 155

The given numbers are in the ratio 5:7. Let the numbers be 5x and 7x, where x is a real number.

The sum of the numbers is 5x+7x=372.

Solve for x,

12x=372\\ x= \frac{372}{12}\\ x=31.

Therefore, the numbers are,

5*31,7*31 or the numbers are 155,217.

Amistad deposited $2,163.27 in a savings account that earns 3.9% simple interest. What will Amistad's account balance be in nine
avanturin [10]

Given that Amistad deposited $2,163.27 in a savings account that earns 3.9% simple interest.

That means we need to use Simple interest formula to find the Amistad's account balance in nine months.


Simple interest formula is

A=P(1+RT)

Where P= principal amount = $2163.27

R= rate of interest = 3.9%= 0.039

T= time in years = 9 months = 9/12 years = 0.75


Now plug these values into above formula:

A=2163.27(1+0.039* 0.75)

A=2163.27(1+0.02925)

A=2163.27(1.02925)

A=2226.5456475


Hence Amistad's account balance in nine months will be approx $2226.55
