<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. $2693.12
  2. $2125.00
  3. B) The area of the field is 10.24 times the area of the playground
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

1. Each year the balance is multiplied by 1.09, so after 5 years, the balance is multiplied by 1.09^5 ≈ 1.53862395. Subtracting the original invetment amount gives the value of the interest earned.

... 5000 × 1.53862395 - 5000 = 5000 × 0.53862395

... ≈ 2693.12 . . . . matches choice D

2. The interest earned is given by the formula ...

... I = Prt . . . . .  where P is the principal, r is the interest rate, and t is the time period.

Filling in the given numbers, you have ...

... I = 2500×0.085×10 = 2125 . . . . matches choice B

3. The product of length and width is the area. If both length and width are multiplied by 3.2, then the area is multiplied by 3.2×3.2 = 10.24. The appropriate choice is B.

Answer:

1.  D) $2,693.12

2.  B) $2,125.00

3.  B) The area of the field is 10.24 times the area of the playground.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  A = P (1+r/n) ^ nt

Where A is the amount in the account

P is the principal

r is the interest rate in decimal form

n is the number of times it is compounded per year

t = the number of years

We know P=5000, r= .09 , n=1 (annually) and t=5.  Substituting into the equation

A = 5000( 1+.09/1) ^(1*5)

A= 5000(1.09)^5

A =7693.12

To find the interest earned, we subtract the principal from the amount in the account

I = A - P

I = 7693.12-5000

I = 2693.12


2.  For simple interest

I = PRT

I is the interest

P is the principal

r is the interest rate in decimal form

t = the number of years

We know P = 2500, r = .085 and t =10  Substituting into the equation

I = (2500)(.085)(10)

I  =2125

3.    The scale factor is 3.2

When we move to area, the area increase by the scale factor squared

3.2^2 = 10.24.  he area of the field is 10.24 times the area of the playground.
