simple interest:
principal x ( 1 + (rate as decimal x number of years))
example if you put 100 dollars in a bank for 5 years at 5% interest at the end of the 5 years you would have:
100 x (1+(0.05 x 5)) = 100 x (1+(0.25)) = 100 x 1.25 = 125 dollars
125-100 = 25 dollars interest
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-5+x=180. Add 5 to both sides
5x=185. Divide by 6
X=37
180-37=143
143
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve simultaneous equations using substitution method, elimination method or graphical method. But for this purpose, we will be using the elimination method.
3x+4y=8 Equation 1
2x+y=42 Equation 2
Multiply Equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, so as to get the same coefficient for x
2(3x+4y=8)= 6x+8y=16 Equation 3
3(2x+y=42)= 6x+3y=126 Equation 4
Subtract equation 4 from 3, to eliminate x
6x-6x=0
8y-3y= 5y
16-126= -110
We now have 5y=-110
Divide both sides by 5,
y= -110/5
= -22
Substituting for y in equation 2
2x+(-22)= 42
2x= 42+22
2x=64
x= 64/2
= 32
(x, y)
(32, -22)
You could do:
1 mile : 1,760 yards.
So, you would multiply 1790 times 2 and get 3520. The closest thing to 4500 yards is 3520.
So you get 2 miles and 980 yards.
