Answer: B, $78

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tip is 20% of the dinner cost, then we have to first find what is 20% of 65.

20% x 65 = 13. So the tip for the dinner is 13 dollars.

Now we have to add it to the original dinner cost.

65 + 13 = 78.

Therefore, the total cost of their meal is 78 dollars. So the answer is B, $78!

Could someone help me understand how to solve this?

Answer:

Amount in 4% account: $550

Step-by-step explanation:

Use simple interest formula $I=P\cdot r\cdot t,$ where

I = interest

P = principal

r = rate (as decimal)

t = time.

4% account:

$P_1=x\\ \\r_1=0.04\\ \\t_1=1,$

then

$I_1=x\cdot 0.04\cdot 1=0.04x$

5% account:

$P_2=1,500-x\\ \\r_2=0.05\\ \\t_2=1,$

then

$I_2=(1,500-x)\cdot 0.05\cdot 1=0.05(1,500-x)$

You have earned $69.50 in total, so

$I_1+I_2=69.50\\ \\0.04x+0.05(1,500-x)=69.50\\ \\4x+5(1,500-x)=6,950\\ \\4x+7,500-5x=6,950\\ \\4x-5x=6,950-7,500\\ \\-x=-550\\ \\x=550\\ \\1,500-x=1,500-550=950$

Amount in 4% account: $550

Amount in 5% account: $950
