Remember that the formula for simple interest is:

Where I is the interest to paid, p is the loan, r is the interest rate (in decimal), and t is the time (in years).
A. We know that the interest rate for a loan of 9 months is 2.9%, but we need to convert that rate to decimal. To do that just divide the interest rate by 100%:

Next, we are going to find the time t in years. Since the period of time is 9 months, we are going to dive by 12, the number of months in a year, to obtain the time in years:

Now, we just need to replace the values in our formula to find the interest owned:

We can conclude that <span>the interest owed for a home improvement loan of $900 after 9 months is $19.58.

B. Similarly:



We can conclude that the interest owed for a home improvement loan of $2500 after 18 months is $116.25.
C. Similarly:



We can conclude that the interest owed for a home improvement loan of $5600 after 6 months is $67.2
Answer:
c = 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets set up an equation.
You can get
3-5c + 1 = 1-c to show that it is one less.
now we can solve it.
So by combining like terms, we get:
4-5c = 1-c
that then becomes:
3-5c = -c
--> 3 = 4c
--> c = 3/4
maple syrup = x
corn syrup = 50-x
6x + 0.8(50-x)=2.36*50
6x+40-0.8x=118
5,2x=78
x= 15 gallons of maple syrup
50-15 = 35 gallons of corn syrup
We can say that because 3 times 9, which would equal 27, could be the same as 4*9, which would be 36. So Pat needs 36 pints of green paint. Down below is a tape diagram so you can see what it is.
