Answer:
x=amount invested at 7%
2x=amount invested at 8%
3x=amount invested at 9%
interest=principal*rate*time (time=1 year)
$150=0.07x+0.08*2x+0.09*3x
$150=0.07x+0.16x+0.27x
$150=0.50x
$1500=5x
x=$300 invested at 7%
2x=$600 invested at 8%
3x=$900 invested at 9%
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>(-5c - 3) - 2 = -10c + 20
-5c - 5 = -10c + 20
10c - 5c = 20 + 5
5c = 25
c = 25/5
c = 5
In short, Your Answer would be 5

$4 is the original price of the jar consisting of peanut butter so therefor it = 100%. It's for sale at $3.60, so we divide $4 by 100% so we get the percentage for each cent and then we times it by 3.60 to get the percentage for $3.60 which is 90%. Now we subtract 90% from 100% to get the discounted percentage for 40cents :)
Amount of interest = 3/100 x 1200
= $36
Answer is B
