Answer:

Brionny invested £8400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

After t years, the total amount of money is:

T = E + P

In this question:

We divide in two intervals, the first year and the second year. We have to know that the amount after the end of the first year is the principal at the start of the second year.

First year:

Amount of 2% interest, during 1 year.

So the interest earned is:

E = P*I*t = P*0.02*1 = 0.02P

The total amount at the end of the first year is:

T = E + P = 0.02P + P = 1.02P

Second year:

We have that:

P = 1.02P

The interest earned is of:

E = P*I*t = 1.02P*0.01*1 = 0.0102P

The total amount is:

T = E + P = 0.0102P + 1.02P = 1.0302P

After two years, the investment is worth £8653.68 How much did Briony invest?

So

1.0302P = 8653.68

P = \frac{8653.68}{1.0302}

P = 8400

Brionny invested £8400.

Answer:

$70

Step-by-step explanation:

Middletown Equation:

1c +50 = T

Sweet Shoppe Equation:

2c + 30 = T

Set equations equal to one another and solve for first for cupcakes then for cost.

1c + 50 = 2c + 30

c+ 20 = 2c

20 = c (twenty cupcakes would be ordered)

Now insert into either equation ( or both to check)

1(20) + 50 = 70

2(20)+ 30 = 70

Total cost would be $70

Im running out of time Somebody help me out please ​

Answer:

3, 4, and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To put it simply, 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 and the numbers are consecutive, next to each other.

The method:

The three consecutive numbers could be called x, x + 1, and x + 2 and we know that x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 12

This can be simplified to 3x + 3 = 12. Next, subtract 3 from both sides to get 3x = 9. Now, divide both sides by 3 to get x = 3.

This means that the first number is 3 and the other numbers are 4 (3 + 1) and 5 (3 + 2).

Hope this helps!
