Deposited 3,000$ and it earned 300$ in simple interest after 5 years what’s the interest rate

Mathematics

Answer:

<em>The interest rate is 2%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

Unlike compound interest where the interest earned in the compounding periods is added to the new principal, simple interest only considers the principal to calculate the interest.

The interest earned is calculated as follows:

I=P.r.t

Where:

I = Interest

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

t = time

The principal is P=$3,000 and it earned I=$300 in t=5 years. Thus the interest rate can be calculated by solving for r:

\displaystyle r=\frac{I}{P.t}

\displaystyle r=\frac{300}{3,000*5}

\displaystyle r=\frac{300}{15,000}

r = 0.02

The interest rate is 2%

In order to qualify for finals in racing event,a race car must achieve an average speed of 250km/hr on a track with a total leng
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The minimum average speed needed in the second half is 270 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation

We can divide the track in two parts. For the first half of the track the average speed the car achieved was 230 km/hr and we need to make sure that the average speed of the full track is 250 km/hr. Then, we can calculate the average speed of the two parts of the track and force this to be equal to 250 km/hr. In equation, defining v_2 as the average speed of the second half:

\frac{230 + v_2}{2}=250

Solving for x

x=250*2-230\\x=500-230\\x=270

Therefore, achieving a speed of 270 km/hr in the second half would be enough to achieve an average speed of 250 on the track.
