If the interest is the same for both accounts then:
.03x=.05(16000-x)
.03x=800-.05x
.08x=800
x=10000, since the interest is the same for both we can just double the interest from one investment to find the total interest earned each year...
.03(10000)2=$600.00
To solve this problem you need to do a proportion. First you do 15 over x= 75 over 100. Now you multiply 15 by 100 which is 1500. Next, you divide 1500 by 75. YOUR ANSWER IS 20 peaches. To check your work, you could divide 20 by 4 which is 5. 5 times 3= 15 peaches.
Number of sweaters bought by Jocelyn = 2
Price of the 2 sweaters including tax and discount coupon = 23.56
Amount of ales tax taken = 1.36
Amount of discount coupon = 5.00
Then
Price of 2 sweaters before tax = 23.56 - 1.36
= 22.20
Then
Price of the sweater before discount coupon was applied = 22.20 + 5.00
= 27.20
So
Price of 1 sweater before tax and coupon discount = 27.2/2
= 13.6
So the price of 1 sweater before tax and coupon discount is 13.6.
