We do like the following:
Set the first number is a and the second is b.
We have two equations: a+2xb=24, 2xa+b=21
And we have 2xa+4xb=48 or 2xa=48-4xb
So: 48-4xb+b=21 or -3xb=21-48=-27 and we got b=-27:(-3)=9 and a= 6
a=6 and b=9

A savings account earns 7.2 (APR) compounded monthly, so it earns 0.6% each month. Cooper has $1500 in the account now. if he de
iragen [17]

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>Cooper will receive </em><em>$12.00</em><em> at the end of the month.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

Cooper has $1500 in the account now and he deposits an additional $500 at the beginning of the month.

So the total principal becomes 1500+500 = $2000

Given here,

APR = annual percentage rate = 7.2%

But as we have to calculate the monthly interest, so monthly interest rate would be =\dfrac{7.2}{12}=0.6\%

Time period = 1 month

So, the interest after 1 month will be,

\text{interest}=\dfrac{\text{Principal}\times \text{Rate of interest}\times \text{Time period}}{100}

=\dfrac{2000\times 0.6\times 1}{100}

=\$12.00

Therefore, Cooper will receive $12.00 at the end of the month.
