Answer:

3.5 Grams

Step-by-step

set 2grams/60lbs equal to xgrams/105

x representing the amount of medicine needed for a 105lb child

Then you divide 60 by 105.

60/105=1.75

Now you multiply 2 by 1.75.

2 x 1.75 = 3.5

3.5 is your answer because 105 is 1.75 times more lbs than 60lbs

meaning you would need 1.75 times the amount of 2grams

to determine the value of x, which is 3.5grams

Find the amount of interest on $1,500 invested for 20 days at 6.75%, compounded daily. $_____

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The required amount of interest is $5538.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $1,500 invested for 20 days at 6.75%, compounded daily.

To find : The amount of interest ?

Solution :

Applying compound interest formula,

$A=P(1+r)^t$

Where, A is the amount

P is the principal P=$1500

r is the interest rate r=6.75%=0.0675 compounded daily

t is the time t=20 days

Substitute the value in the formula,

$A=P(1+r)^t$

$A=1500(1+0.0675)^{20}$

$A=1500(1.0675)^{20}$

$A=1500\times 3.69$

$A=\$5538$

Therefore, The required amount of interest is $5538.
