Set up a proportion.
Let x = the number of students in 29970 who speak 3 or more languages.
285/19 = 29970/x Cross multiply
285 x = 19 * 29970
285x = 569430
x = 569430/285
x = 5415 students speak 3 languages.
The correct answer choice is (D) 1.10/1 Ib
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Kristi
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for Simple Interest =
Principal × Rate × Time
For Kristi
Kristi invests $3,000 at a 7.25% annual simple interest rate,
Principal = $3000
Rate = 7.25% = 0.0725
Time = 1
Simple interest = $3000 × 0.0725 × 1
= $217.5
For Kari
Her sister Kari invests $3,200 at a 6.25% annual simple interest rate.
Principal = $3200
Rate = 6.25% = 0.0625
Time = 1
Simple interest = $3200 × 0.0625 × 1
= $200
From the above calculation, we can see that: Kristi will earn the greater amount of interest after one year
