150*30% = $45
$150-$45 = $105
Marco still owes his brother $105
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of cakes baked by Calvin and Susie = 3 : 7
Cakes baked by Calvin = 3x
Cakes baked by Susie = 7x
Cakes baked by Calvin = Cakes baked by Susie - 60
3x = 7x - 60
7x - 60 = 3x
7x = 3x + 60
7x - 3x = 60
4x = 60
x = 60/4
x = 15
Cakes baked by Calvin = 3*15 = 45
Cakes baked by Susie = 7 *15 = 105
Total cakes baked = 45 + 105 = 150
They both baked 150 cakes altogether.
Answer:
At 7% $54,000
At 9% $156,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount invested at 7%, Then 2x + 48000 will be the amount invested at 9%
We know that:
7% = 0.07 & 9% = 0.09
So we can write the interest equation as follows:
0.07x + 0.09 (2x + 48000) = 17820
0.07x + 0.18x + 4320 = 17820
0.25x + 4320 = 17820
Subtracting 4320 from both sides of the equation we get:
0.25x = 17820 - 4320
0.25x = 13500
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.25 we get:
x = 13500 / 0.25
x = $54,000 invested at 7%
&
2 x 54000 + 48000
= $156,000 invested at 9%
Hence the amount invested at 7% is $54,000.
& the amount invested at 9% is $156,000.
