Answer:
try dividing the dividend and then multiplying it by the center number
Let x be the amount of the solution containing 10% of the chemical. Then, the solution with 40% chemical becomes 10 - x. The equation for balancing the chemical content of the solution is,
0.10x + 0.40(10 - x) = 0.25(10)
The value of x is 5. Hence, the druggist should mix 5 ounces of each. There are 2.5 ounces of chemical in the final mixture.
When simplified all of them equal 3/1. They are asking you to just chose 4 of them. Hope that helps!
Given that loan amount P=20000
Interest rate r=5% = 0.05
Time of loan t=4 years
Now to find the interest amount we just plug those values into formula
simple interest = P × r × t
simple interest = 20000* 0.05* 4
simple interest = 1000 * 4
simple interest = 4000
Hence final answer is choice b. $4000.
