Answer:

He must invest R297 521 today.

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Banabas must pay his ex-wife an amount of R350 000 in two years’ time.

This means that t = 2, A(t) = 350000

Interest rate of 8.15% per annum compounded monthly:

This means that r = 0.0815, n = 12.

Amount he must invest today:

This is P. So

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

350000= P(1 + \frac{0.0815}{12})^{2*12}

P = \frac{350000}{(1 + \frac{0.0815}{12})^{2*12}}

P = 297521

He must invest R297 521 today.

pochemuha

Answer:

the cost of one hot chocolate is $2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the hot chocolate cost and y be the newspaper cost.

Given:

A newspaper and three hot chocolates cost $7

So, the equation is

3x+y=7--------(1)

Two newspapers and two hot chocolates cost $6

So, the second equation is.

2x+2y=6---------(2)

Find one hot chocolate cost?

Solve equation 1 for y.

3x+y=7

y=7-3x

Put y value in equation 2

2x+2(7-3x)=6

2x+14-6x=6

14-4x=6

-4x=6-14

-4x=-8

negative sign is cancelled both side.

x=\frac{8}{4}

x=2

Therefore, the cost of one hot chocolate is $2.
