Answer:

There were a total of 72 Easter eggs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since five students participated in an Easter egg hunt, where Ally snatched up one quarter of all of the eggs, Brett only managed to get half of what Ally found, Lee snagged six more than Brett, Jen ended up with half of Lee's take, While Lisa snagged three times that, to determine how many eggs were there in total, the following calculation must be performed:

Ally: 0.25X

Brett: 0.125X

Read: 0.125X + 6

Jen: 0.0625X + 3

Smooth: 0.1875X + 9

X - 0.25X - 0.125X - 0.125X - 0.0625X - 0.1875X = 0.25

0.25X = 6 + 3 + 9

0.25X = 18

Ally: 18

Brett: 9

Read: 15

Jen: 7.5

Smooth: 22.5

18 + 9 + 15 + 7.5 + 22.5 = X

72 = X

Thus, there were a total of 72 Easter eggs.

Answer:#of dimes is 15 # of quarters is 10

Step-by-step explanation:method is elimination my multiplication. First equation is x+y=25 multiply it by -10. Second equation is 10x+25y=400. A quarter is .25 and a dime is .10 but to avoid all decimals I multiplied by 10 but it doesn’t matter because I did it on both sides. Use systematic equation solving to get 15y=150 then y=10. Plug it into the first to get x+10=25 subtract to get 15. Mr. Jacobs does get excessive sometimes lol.

What is the total interest earned in two years on an account containing $500 at 3.5% interest, compounded annually?
Andrei [34K]

Answer: $35.6125

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5% = 0.035

Let's find the deposit amount with interest at the end of the first year:

500 + 500 · 0.035 = 517.5

Let's find the amount of the deposit with interest at the end of the second year:

517.5 + 517.5  · 0.035 = 535.6125

Find the total interest earned over two years:

535.6125 - 500 = 35.6125
