Answer:

2.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Investment P = $16800

Interest rate r = 5% = 0.05

Final amount A = $18900

Time t = ?

Use the formula

A = P(1 + rt), where A - final amount, P - investment, r- interest rate, t- time

Substitute the given numbers and solve for t:

18900 = 16800( 1 + 0.05t)

1 + 0.05t = 18900/16800

1 + 0.05t  = 1.125

0,05t = 0.125

t = 0.125/0.05

t = 2.5 years

The Pythagorean Theorem says that in a right triangle each of the legs squared add up to equal the hypotenuse squared.  The converse says that a triangle is a right triangle if each of the legs squared added together equal the square of the hypotenuse.  For your particular problem, square the legs and add them together and they should equal the hypotenuse squared.  One thing you have to know to get through this is that, no matter what, in a right triangle the hypotenuse will ALWAYS and forever be the longest length.

Kieva made 5 times as many cookies as she did cupcakes. If she made 48 deserts in all , how many cupcakes did she make ?
VikaD [51]

Kieva made 8 cupcakes. 8 * 5 + 8 = 48 desserts.

In order to get this, you just have to try out different numbers of cupcakes and adjust based on whether it's too many desserts total, or not enough.

Another way to figure it out is to say that 1 cupcake + 5 cookies = 6 desserts. Then just divide 48 by 6 to get 8 which will then show you that Kieva made 8 cupcakes.
