<u>Answer: </u>

Physliis invested 32000 dollar at 5% interest rate and 34000 dollar at 7% interest rate.

<u>Solution:</u>

Let Phyllis invest ‘x’ dollar at 5% per year and (66000-x) dollar at 7% per year.

We know,

\text { Simple interest }=\frac{\text {Principal} \times r a t e \times T i m e}{100}

In the question it is given that Simple interest earned from both the investments at the end of the year is $3980.

Using the given below equation, we will try to find out the investments at each rate.

\begin{array}{l}{\frac{x \times 5 \times 1}{100}+\frac{(66000-x) \times 7 \times 1}{100}=3980} \\\\ {\frac{5 x}{100}+\frac{462000-7 x}{100}=3980} \\\\ {\frac{5 x+462000-7 x}{100}=3980} \\\\ {-2 \mathrm{x}+462000=3980 \times 100} \\\\ {-2 \mathrm{x}=398000-462000} \\\\ {-2 \mathrm{x}=-64000} \\\\ {\mathrm{x}=\frac{-64000}{-2}}\end{array}

x = 32000

We can calculate amount for 7% interest rate by,

(66000-32000) =34000

Thus Phyllis invested 32000 dollar at 5% interest rate and 34000 dollar at 7% interest rate.

You order the hardcover book shown from a website that offers free shipping on orders of $25 or more. Write and solve an inequal
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

If P= price of the hardcover book, then

We have to spend $25-P, if P<$25; or $0 if P>= $25

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call P the price of the hardcover book, in $. We can suppose that P is less than 25, otherwise we shoudnt spend on anything else to get the free shipping. If X is the amount that we have to spend to reach 25, then we get that P+X = 25. If P is known, we can obtain X by substracting P in both sides, therefore

X = 25-P

We conclude that if the price of the book P is less than 25, then we have to spend $25-P. Otherwise we have to spend 0.
