9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • $14,747 at 9%
  • $12,129 at 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 9%. Then the difference in interest amounts is ...

  (9%)x -(5%)(26876 -x) = 720.78 . . . . . assuming a 1-year investment

  0.14x -1343.80 = 720.78 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.14x = 2064.58 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 1343.80

  x = 14,747 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.14

$14,747 is invested at 9%; $12,129 is invested at 5%.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Following the order of operations solve:

(24) - 4 + 2 - 12

20 + 2 - 12

22 - 12

Don't feel bad, this is an odd question and the parenthesis do not seem to be required. Following the order of operations would result in the same answer anyway...

Odd.

What single decimal multiplier would you use to increase by 18% followed by a<br> 12% decrease?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The single decimal multiplier used to increase by 18% followed by a  12% decrease is 0.21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number

As first the number has to be increased by 18%

so

Step 1: write the percentage '18%' in decimal form

18% = 0.18    

Step 2: For percentage increases: add the decimal to 1

1 + 0.18 = 1.18    

Step 3: Multiply the number x by the multiplier, found in Step 2

x × 1.18 = 1.18x

<u><em>NEXT WE HAVE TO DECREASE 1.18x by 12%</em></u>

Apply the same method but with a number 1.18x

  • Write the percentage '12%' in decimal form

12% = 0.12

  • For percentage decreases: subtract the decimal to 1

1 - 0.18 = 0.18

  • Multiply the number 1.18x by the multiplier, found in Previous step

1.18x × 0.18 = 0.21x

Therefore, the single decimal multiplier used to increase by 18% followed by a  12% decrease is 0.21.
