Answer:

20x-60=280

Equation

So x for unknown amount of months, since 20 dollar each month 20x

-60 becuase she withdraws 60 one time

=280 becuase thats what she has left

Now solve

add 60 on both sides

20x=340

Divide 20 on both sides

x=17

17 months

Jasmine borrowed $15,000 for 8 years and she paid $6,600 in interest. What was the interest rate for Jasmine's loan?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the interest rate, use the equation:  I = prt

I = Interest = $6,600

p = principal = $15,000

r = rate = unknown

t = time = 8 years


Now plug the numbers into the equation.

6,600 = 15,000 * r * 8

6,600 = 120,000 * r


Now isolate the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by 120,000.

0.055 = r


Now change the rate to a percent by moving the decimal point 2 digits to the right.

5.5% = r   OR   r = 5.5%

A man invests his savings in two accounts ,one paying6% and the other paying 10% simple interest per year. He puts twice as much
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer: he invested $46062.5 at 6% and $23031.25 at 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 6% interest.

Let y represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 10% interest.

He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky.. This means that

x = 2y

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Considering the account paying 6% interest,

P = $x

T = 1 year

R = 6℅

I = (x × 6 × 1)/100 = 0.06x

Considering the account paying 10% interest,

P = $y

T = 1 year

R = 10℅

I = (y × 10 × 1)/100 = 0.1y

His annual interest is $7370dollars. it means that

0.06x + 0.2y = 7370 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 2y into equation 1, it becomes

0.06 × 2y + 0.2y = 7370

0.12y + 0.2y = 7370

0.32y = 7370

y = 7370/0.32

y = $23031.25

x = 2 × 23031.25

x = 46062.5
