Hi

He paid for 4 pounds of bananas with a 10$ bill. However, they gave him $4 back, so that's mean the total cost for 4 pounds of bananas was for 6 dollars. Now they ask you to find the cost for 1 pound of banana.

4 pounds ............> $6
1 pound.............x (x represents the cost that we are looking for)
Cross multiply
4x = 6
Divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = 6/4
x = 1.5
The final answer is : The cost for 1 pound of banana was for $1.5 dollars.


Good luck !

Help with number 12 and 13 And please show work so I can understand how to do it
Len [333]
13: multiply the amount by the tax rate (to make a percent a decimal move the decimal point 2 places to the left) and add the original amount and the taxed amount together. For 12 do above but then multiply the total by the tip rate and add together (basically the same as the tax again) :) I hope this helps

What simple interest rate would allow $6000 to grow to an amount of $14550 in 10 years?
Harman [31]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{  \boxed{ \sf{ \: 14.25 \: \% \: }}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Principal ( P ) = $ 6000

Amount ( A ) = $ 14550

Time ( T ) = 10 years

Rate ( R ) = ?

<u>Finding </u><u>the </u><u>Interest</u>

The sum of principal and interest is called an amount.

From the definition,

\boxed{ \sf{Amount =  \: Principal + Interest}}

plug the values

⇒\sf{14550 = 6000 + Interest}

Swap the sides of the equation

⇒\sf{6000 + Interest = 14550}

Move 6000 to right hand side and change its sign

⇒\sf{Interest = 14550 - 6000}

Subtract 6000 from 14550

⇒\sf{Interest = \: 8550 \: }

Interest = $ 8550

<u>Finding </u><u>the </u><u>rate </u>

{ \boxed{ \sf{Rate =  \frac{Interest \times 100}{Principal \times Time}}}}

plug the values

⇒\sf{ Rate = \frac{8550  \times 100}{6000 \times 10} }

Calculate

⇒\sf{Rate =  \frac{855000}{60000} }

⇒\sf{Rate = 14.25 \: \% \: }

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

(1+2i) (2+5i)
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first multiply 1 with 2+5i then multiply 2i with 2+5i and you will get

2+5i+4i+10i^2

then in the next step add 4i and 5i you will get 9i

in the next step put i^2=-1 and you will get -10

in the last step just substract 2-10 you will get -8 and 9i

and your answer will be -8+9i
