Answer:
What numbers? Be specific.
The answer is 1690. First find
the amount of interest by a single investment by multiplying the investment
amount by the percent interest in decimal form. Then calculate the total by
adding up all the products of investment times interest. Matrices will allow to
multiply two things together and add the products up all at the same time. So
we need to find the investment matrix and interest matrix.
Investment matrix A (transposed) = (a1 a2 a3) = (13,000 12,000 4,000)
Interest Matrix B = (b1
b2 b3) = (0.05 0.06 0.08)
Amount of interest earned = a1b1 + a2b2 + a3b3
Amount of interest earned = (0.05) (13,000) + (0.06)
(12,000) + (0.08)(4,000)
Amount of interest earned = 1690
$676.
If the sale price of the coat is $169, you are looking for the original price. I like to think about it in the sense that if an item is 75% off, you are paying 25% of the original amount. Using that logic, in order to determine the sale price you would use the equation
Original price * 25% = $169
To solve for the original price:
Original price = $169/.25 = $676.
