Answer: There are 4 tubes of paint she purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount spend on tubes of paint and brushes for an art project = $16

Cost of each tube of paint = $3

Cost of each brush = $0.50

Let the price of tube of paint be 'x'.

Let the price of brush be '2x'.

So, According to question, it becomes,

3x+0.50\times 2x=16\\\\3x+x=16\\\\4x=16x\\\\x=\dfrac{16}{4}\\\\x=4

Hence, there are 4 tubes of paint she purchased.

If the simple interest on 3,000​$ for 3 years is ​450$​, then what is the interest​ rate?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The interest rate is 15% for every 3 years. To find the interest rate subtract the money from the total. Then, divide the total from the difference. Now subtract the quotient from 100 and multiply it by 100 to fin the percentage.

3000 - 450 = 2550

2550 ÷ 3000 = 0.85

100 - 0.85 = 0.15

0.15 x 100 = 15%
