$290, 12.5%, 6 months

Veronika [31]

The information shown here only shows a principal sum, a rate of interest and a period or time. There is no question as to what is needed. But suppose the need is for simple interest, then we calculate using the given information and the formula: I = PRT where I is simple interest, P is the principal, R is the rate per year, and T is time P = 290, T is 6 months which is 0.5 years, R = 12.5 % which is written as 0.125 in decimal fraction. I = 290 × 0.125 x 0.5 → I = 18.125 Therefore after 6 months , the interest earned will be 18. 125 dollars

The heights of a maple tree and a cherry tree have a ratio of 5:2. If the maple tree grew 20 cm and 20 cm was cut off the top of

Let x be the <span>heights of a maple tree and y be the height of the cherry tree.
We know:
</span> $\frac{x}{y} = \frac{5}{2}$
<span>The new ratio is obtained like this:
</span> $\frac{x+20}{y-20} = \frac{3}{1}$ .
From the above equation we get $x= (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20$ .
then $\frac{ (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20}{y} = \frac{5}{2}$
Solving the above equation for y we get: $y=160$
So $x=400$
So the first tree is (400-160=240) more taller than cherry tree.

What is $0.8\%$ of $125\%$ of $8128$? Express your answer as a decimal.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this kind of problem, we must remember that the word "of" means multiplication in math language, and all percentages numbers can be expressed as a fraction where the denominator is 100. Applying all this, we have

$0.8\%\times 125\%\times 8128\\\frac{0.8}{100}\times \frac{125}{100} \times 8128\\ 0.008(1.25)(8128)=81.28$

Therefore, all those percentages of 8128 results in 81.28

Which box of crackers is a better deal?

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Since each cracker in the 190 gram box costs $ 0.0078 while the 850 gram box costs $ 0.0082 each, the 190 gram box is a better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that a 190-gram box of crackers costs $ 1.49 and an 850-gram box costs $ 6.99, to determine which of them is a better deal, the following calculation must be performed:

1.49 / 190 = 0.0078

6.99 / 850 = 0.0082

Therefore, since each cracker in the 190 gram box costs $ 0.0078 while the 850 gram box costs $ 0.0082 each, the 190 gram box is a better deal.
