This question is about compound interest, but since the interest is such a small number you can use what you know about simple interest to eliminate some answers.
You can immediately eliminate choice A as a clunker, since it is less than the original amount in the account.
Consider what the amount of interest would be if you make the rate much larger than the original rate, say 10%, or 0.1:
$6,500 × 0.1 = $650
If this amount were added to the original amount each year for two years, the total would be:
$6,500 + $650 + $650 = $6,500 + $1,300 = $7,800
This is an over-estimate for the information given, and since choices C and D are even greater than this over-estimate, they can be eliminated. That means choice B is the correct answer.

No numbers, is the question correct? Are you factoring?
The correct answers are that Earth’s North Pole is close to the magnetic south pole, magnets allowed to move freely align themselves to point north, and the north pole on a compass is attracted to Earth’s south pole. I really hope this helps you!!
Answer:
3.39 + 0.59x
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of a dish of ice cream = $3.39
Cost of toppings = $0.59 each
x = number of toppings
which expression can be used to determine the total charge in dollars, for a dish of ice cream with x toppings
Total charge for a dish of ice cream with x toppings = 3.39 + 0.59x
The expression is 3.39 + 0.59x
