Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the simple interest expressed as;

Simple Interest = Principal * rate * time/100

Note that the principal is the amount he originally borrowed

I = PRT/100 ............ 1

Amount paid off A = Principal+Interest

A = P+I ............ 2

From equation 2; I = A-P......... 3

Substitute equation 3 into 1;

A-P = PRT/100

Given A = $440, R = 10%, Time = 1year

Substitute the given parameters into the resulting equation;

440 - P = P*10*1/100

440-P = 10P/100

440-P = 0.1P

440 = 0.1P+P

440 = 1.1P

Divide through by 1.1;

1.1P/1.1 = 440/1.1

P = $400

Hence the amount Mr Noel originally borrow is $400

What means the same as 6 × 5? A.6^5 B.5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 C.6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6

skelet666 [1.2K]

Here is your answer:

In order to find your answer we will have to solve each option separately to see which one equals 6 × 5.

$6^5 = 6\times6\times6\times6\times 6$ <---- Not the answer
$5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 25$ <----- Not the answer
$6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 35$ <---- Your answer

Therefore your answer is option C "6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 ."

Hope this helps!
