Answer:
31.2 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 2x = weight of oranges
5x = weight of apples
6x = weight of pears
2x + 5x + 6x = total weight
2x = 4.8
x = 2.4
4.8 + 5(2.4) + 6(2.4) = 4.8 + 12 + 14.4
= 31.2 lbs
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"The total number of dollars in fives and tens" tells you that these denominations are being added together. Because a five dollar bill is worth $5 and a ten dollar bill is worth $10, then the number of $5 bills is represented by 5f and a the number of $10 bills is represented by 10t. Therefore,
T = 5f + 10t
Answers:
- interest = $75
- balance at maturity = $3075
=============================================================
Explanation:
The simple interest formula is
i = p*r*t
where in this case,
- p = 3000 = principal (amount deposited)
- r = 0.10 = annual interest rate in decimal form
- t = 3/12 = 0.25 = number of years
So,
i = p*r*t
i = 3000*0.10*0.25
i = 75 is the amount of interest earned
This adds onto the initial deposit to get the final balance when the CD matures (ie when you're able to withdraw the money without penalties)
The balance at maturity is p+i = 3000+75 = 3075 dollars
---------------
In short, you deposit $3000 into the CD and have to wait 3 months for the amount to update to $3075.
