James invested $300 in a bank account that earns simple interest. He earns $24 at the end of 12 months. James invests $500 at th
NARA [144]

Answer: $40

Step-by-step explanation:

The key formula to use for this problem is the simple interest formula, which is I=prt ; where I is the interest earned, p is the principal (initial) amount, r is the interest rate, and t is the amount of time that passes.

Since we know that both investments have the same interest rate, we can use the information from the first part of the problem to solve for the interest rate. Using algebra, we can rearrange the simple interest formula to solve for the interest rate:  r=I/pt. We know that our interest earned is $24 and our principal amount is $300. To make things easier, we'll also convert months to years, which is easy to do since we know that 12 months = 1 year. This gives us our value for the amount of time that passes. Now, all we have to do is plug in our values into the rearranged equation above.

We should now have: r=\frac{24}{300*1}=0.08

Now, to find the interest earned from the $500 investment, we just need to plug in our values from the second part of the problem, along with our calculated interest rate of 0.08, into the original formula of I=prt

This should result in I=500*0.08*1=40

Therefore, James will receive $40 on his $500 investment after 12 months.

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

  V = πr²h

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is ...

  V = πr²h

where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height of the cylinder.

_____

<em>Comment on the formula</em>

This is a specific version of the formula for any sort of "prism" with parallel bases and a uniform cross section (parallel to the bases). The volume of such a figure is computed as ...

  V = Bh

where B is the area of the base and h is the perpendicular distance between the parallel bases. Here, the base is a circle, so has area formula ...

  B = πr²

Filling this into the volume formula gives ...

  V = πr²h . . . . . as above

Write the equation of the line slope 2, through (3,1)
Arisa [49]

answer:

y = 2x - 5

work:

to write equations, we use the format y = mx + b.

m stands for the slope, and b stands for the y intercept.

this means that you should be able to enter the values for y and x and get a valid equation as a result.

in this equation, we are not given a y intercept value, but we do have a slope and x and y values, so we have to solve by substituting.

so, let's substitute in the values of y and x and the slope,

and solve for b, the y intercept.

1 = 2(3) + b (multiply 2 x 3)

1 = 6 + b (subtract 6 from both sides)

- 5 = b

b has a value of -5. let's place this into the equation.

y = 2x - 5.

the slope is 2, and the y intercept is -5, let's plug in our y and x values to verify that this is true.

1 = 2(3) - 5

1 = 6 - 5

1 = 1

so, this equation is correct. hope this helps and have a great day!
