So simple interest, you don't compound anything, you will always add 3% from $9500 and it will not change. The equation will look like this:
9500*[1+(0.03*8)]
giving us 9500*1.24 = $11,780
What is the context to this
Answer:
Value of stamp collection = (45b + 43) cents
Step-by-step explanation:
What we have here is as follows;
if there are x 3-cent stamps, then there are 4x 10-cent stamps
So the number of 2-cent stamps is 1 less than 3 cent stamps and that will be x-1 2 cent stamps
Number of 2 cents stamps = b
This means that x-1 = b
Thus, x = b + 1
So the value of the stamp collection is as follows;
x 3 cents stamps = 3(b+ 1) = 3b + 3 cents
4x 10 cents stamps = 10(4(b + 1)) = 10(4b + 4) = 40b + 40
value of the 2 cents stamp = 2b cents
Total value is thus;
2b + 40b + 40 + 3b + 3 = (45b + 43) cents
She took a total of 60 minutes
she answered both mulitiple choice and extended response in the total time which is 60 minutes
she took 2 minutes on rach multiple choice question and 6 minutes for the extended response
let x=number of multiple choice questions
let y=number of extended response questions
we can deduce that
total time =x*2+y*6
60=2x+6y
also we can deduce
20=x+y
since 20 ia the sum of multiple choice and extended response
for part 2 we just solve the system of equations
60=2x+6y
20=x +y
lets multiply the second equation by 2 so we can get rid of x
60=2x+6y
40=2x+2y
subtracting the two equations from each other to yields
20=0 +4y
y=5
to get x we substitute in one of the equations we derived from question 1
x+y=20
substituting y for its value we get
x+5=20
x=15
