Answer:

a : b = 4 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(mark as brainlist answer)

According to the given condition is the question :

Two numbers a and b are such that the sum of 5% of a and 4% of b is two-third of the sum of 6% of a and 8% of b

⇒ (5% of a) + (4% of b) = (2/3) × [(6% of a) + (8% of b)

⇒ 0.05a + 0.04b = 2/3 × (0.06a + 0.08b)

⇒ 0.15a + 0.12b = 0.12a + 0.16b

⇒ 0.03a = 0.04b

⇒ a/b = 4/3

⇒ a : b = 4 : 3

Help ASAP!!! Savings Account.Christine Chu borrowed $4500 from a bank at a simple interest rate of 2.5% for one year.
nydimaria [60]

Answer: $112.50 ; $4612.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Determine how much interest Christine paid at the end of 1 year.

This will be:

Simple interest = PRT/100

where

P = principal = $4500

R = rate = 2.5%

T = time = 1 year

Interest = (4500 × 2.5 × 1)/100

= 11250/100

= $112.50

b) Determine the total amount Christine will repay the bank at the end of 1 year.

Total amount = Principal + Interest

= $4500 + $112.50

= $4612.5

Help please. Seriously. I've posted this question 2 times. I seriously need help on this, guys.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

20s=m

Step-by-step explanation:

I really don't understand it that well but all that I can is that s can represent students that went on the trip, and each student's ticket cost is 20$, so 20*s=20s, but we are taking m as the total money collected, so we can end up saying that 20s=m, hope u understood :)
