Hank invested a total of $20,000, part at 7% and part at 10%. How much did he invest at each rate if the total interest earned i
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The amount invested at 7% is $12,000 while the amount invested at 10% is $8,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The total amount Hank invested = $20,000

The interest earned in one year = $1640

Hank invested part of the $20,000 at 7% interest and part of the $20,000 at 10%

Let the part invested at 7% = X and the part invested at 10% = Y, we have;

7% of X + 10% of Y = $1640 which gives;

0.07×X + 0.1×Y = $1640.....................(1)

X + Y = $20,000.................................(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 10 and subtract equation (1) from equation (2) to get;

X + Y - 10×(0.07×X + 0.1×Y) = $20,000 - 10×$1640

X - 0.7·X - Y - Y = $20,000 - $16,400 = $3,600

0.3·X = $3,600

X = $3,600/0.3 = $12,000

X = $12,000

Y = $20,000 - X = $20,000 - $12,000 = $8,000

Y = $8,000

Therefore, the amount invested at 7% = $12,000 and the amount invested at 10% = $8,000.

Dora has 10 seashells and plans to add 2 shells every week. Jerri has 4 seashells and plans to add 5 shells every week. Which sy
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Let x represents the week and y represents the seashells

As per the statement:

Dora has 10 seashells and plans to add 2 shells every week.

"2 shells every week" means 2x

⇒y = 10 + 2x

It is also given, Jerri has 4 seashells and plans to add 5 shells every week.

"5 shells every week" means 2x

⇒ y = 4 + 5x

The system of equation would be used:

y = 10 + 2x

y = 4 + 5x

Since, the girls have the same number of seashells

⇒10 + 2x = 4 + 5x

Subtract 4 from both sides we get;

6 + 2x = 5x

Subtract 2x from both sides we get;

6= 3x

Divide by 3 both sides we have;

x = 2 weeks.

Therefore, the number of weeks would it be before the girls have the same number if seashells is, 2 weeks.
