Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{  \boxed{ \sf{ \: 14.25 \: \% \: }}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Principal ( P ) = $ 6000

Amount ( A ) = $ 14550

Time ( T ) = 10 years

Rate ( R ) = ?

<u>Finding </u><u>the </u><u>Interest</u>

The sum of principal and interest is called an amount.

From the definition,

\boxed{ \sf{Amount =  \: Principal + Interest}}

plug the values

⇒\sf{14550 = 6000 + Interest}

Swap the sides of the equation

⇒\sf{6000 + Interest = 14550}

Move 6000 to right hand side and change its sign

⇒\sf{Interest = 14550 - 6000}

Subtract 6000 from 14550

⇒\sf{Interest = \: 8550 \: }

Interest = $ 8550

<u>Finding </u><u>the </u><u>rate </u>

{ \boxed{ \sf{Rate =  \frac{Interest \times 100}{Principal \times Time}}}}

plug the values

⇒\sf{ Rate = \frac{8550  \times 100}{6000 \times 10} }

Calculate

⇒\sf{Rate =  \frac{855000}{60000} }

⇒\sf{Rate = 14.25 \: \% \: }

Hope I helped!

The ratio of customers who purchase items with coupons to customers who don't use coupons is 6 to 16. If 9 customers use coupons
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

24 customers will not use coupons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of customers who use coupons = 9

Number of customers who don't use coupons = x

Ratio of customers who use coupons to customers who don't use coupons = 6:16

=\frac{6}{16}

\frac{9}{x}=\frac{6}{16}

x=\frac{9\times 16}{6}=24

24 customers will not use coupons.

What is an<br> equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,8) and (4,1)?
GuDViN [60]

Answer: y= -1x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,8) ( 4,1)

8-1= 7

-3-4 = -7

7/-7 = -1  so the slope is -1   so we will use the formula y=mx+b to find the y-intercept

8= -1(-3) + b

8= 3 + b

-3   -3

b= 5  so the y intercept is 5 now we will write the equation like this y= -1x + 5
