Answer:228
Step-by-step explanation:
8x6 + 12x10 + 10x6
We solve the question as follows:
Simple interest=Principle×Rate×Time
Thus given:
p=$55000, R=2.5%, time= 1 year
thus
Interest=55000×0.025×1=$1375
To evaluate the amount required to keep up with the inflation, your interest rate should match the inflation rate otherwise prices are going up faster than the savings.
Required interest rate=55000×0.034×1=$1870
The buying power lost will be the difference between your required interest and actual interest.
Thus:
Buying power lost=1870-1375=$495
Y= 0.26x+4.4*10^-4
Y= 0.26x+4.4*10,000
Y=0.26x+44,000
I'm not sure if you were only trying to simplify the problem, but I hope this helped
