1. P is the principal amount, $630.00. r is the interest rate, 6.5% per year, or in decimal form, 6.5/100=0.065. t is the time involved, 4....year(s) time periods. So, t is 4....year time periods. To find the simple interest, we multiply 630 × 0.065 × 4 to get that: The interest is: $163.80
2. =8000 x 9 x 18 =12,960 Total amount = 12960 +8000= $20,960 3. annual interest rate = 15.9 % initial charge = $126 to get the annual interest paid = 15.9% of $126 = 0.159 * $126 = $20.03 monthly interest paid would be = annual interest / 12 months = 20.03 / 12 = $1.67 hence in 2 months Rita will pay = initial charge + monthly interest * 2 = $126 + $ 1.67 *2 = $ 126 + $3.34 = $ 129 .34
4. To find the amount of money in the account after 8.5 years we will first turn 5.6% into a decimal. We'll do that by moving the decimal within the percentage two places to the left. That leaves us with 0.056. Next, we'll multiply our factors to help us find out how much interest will be accrued within the 8.5 years. 500 x 0.056 x 8.5 = 238. Margarito will earn $238 within an 8.5 year time frame. Since her original deposit was $500 and assuming no other deposits/withdrawls occur within the time frame, we will add $238 of interest to the original deposit. 500 + 238 = 738. This means, that Margarito will have $738 in her savings account after 8.5 years of just accruing interest.
5. $18,260 divided by (/) $220,000 = .083 or .08. The interest is 8%. Because Kelli is earning $18,260 a year, you need to get the number down to a decimal (which would be the interest) So, you have to divide the smaller number by the larger number. I use x 18260 ____ _______ 100 % 220000 multiply 100x18260 and then divide by 220000. You get 8.3, or 8.3%, but if you round up, you get 8%.
.72 divided by 6 is 12. So they make 12 cents per ticket, so that means you would have to do 12 times 11 and that should get you 132 cents and that is equivalent to $1.32.
Remark The equation is job1/ time + job2/time = job3/time
Discussion job one is the time it takes one of the workers to complete the job. job two is the time it takes the other workers to complete the job job three is the time it takes to do the job together.
Givens. Let Marcus's time = m Let Tony's time be =t Let their together time = t1
Equation Substitution and solution. 1/m + 1/t = 1/t1 1/6 + 1/4 = 1/t1 The common denominator on the left is 12. 2/12 + 3/12 = 1 / t1 5/12 = 1/t1 Cross multiply. 5*t1 = 12 Divide by 5 t1 = 12/5 t1 = 2 2/5 t1 = 2.4 hours
Cost 1 hour = 43 dollars for labor. 2.4 hours = x dollars for labor.
