Answer:
The loan was for 9 months only
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with calculating the time taken for a loan om an interest to be paid back
To calculate this, we use the simple interest formula
Mathematically;
I = PRT/100
where P is the principal which is the amount borrowed and that is $500 according to the question
R is the rate which is 8% according to the question
Interest can be calculated by subtracting the principal from the amount paid back = 530-500 = 30$
We now plug these values into the equation
30 = (500 × 8× T)/100
100 × 30 = 4000T
T = 3000/4000
T = 0.75 (same as 0.75 × 12 months = 9 months)
Answer:
D. 50
Step-by-step explanation:
50/1 (60/100) =
3000/100 =
30/1 =
30
1.divide the first term of the numerator by the first team of the denominator, and put that in the answer
2. Multiply the denominator by that answer, put that below the numerator
3.subtract to create a new polynomial
Answer: x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
did the math
Speed=distance/time
suppose the distance of the first day is d, and the time is t
distance of the second day: d+0.17d=1.17d
time of the second day: t+0.2t=1.2t
speed of the second day: 1.17d/1.2t=0.975(d/t)=(1-0.025)(d/t)
so the speed of the second day is 2.5% slower than the first day.
