Tamara invests $8000 in two different accounts. The first account has a simple interest rate of 3% and the second account has a

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

$3200 at 3%
$4800 at 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest earned is proportional to the interest rate, so if the interest earned is the same, the amounts invested must be inversely proportional to the interest rates. That is, for the 3% and 2% accounts, the ratio of money invested is 2:3.

In other words, 2/5 of the money ($3200) was invested at 3%, and 3/5 of the money ($4800) was invested at 2%.

_____

If you need an equation, you can let x represent the amount invested at the highest rate. Then 8000-x is the amount invested at the lower rate. For the interest in the two accounts to be equal, we have ...

3%·x = 2%·(8000-x) . . . . . the amounts of interest earned are the same

3/2·x = 8000 -x . . . . . . . . divide by 2%

5/2·x = 8000 . . . . . . . . . . . add x and simplify

x = 8000·(2/5) = 3200 . . . multiply by the inverse of the x coefficient

8000-x = 8000 -3200 = 4800 . . . . the amount invested at the lower rate

Tamara invested $3200 in the 3% account and $4800 in the 2% account.

_____

She earned $96 in each account for the year.

B-4/6=b/2 solve for b

DIA [1.3K]

First you cross multiply.

2*(b-4)=6b

Then distribute the 2.

2b-8=6b

Minus 2b from each side.

-8=4b

Divide each side by 4.

-2=b

So -2 is your answer.

sasho [114]

Answer:

0.8997, 0.9999

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that among 46- to 51-year-olds, 28% say they have called a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure.

i.e. X no of people who say they have called a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure is binomial with p = 0.28

Each person is independent of the other and there are only two outcomes

n =7

a) the probability that at least one has not called a talk showcalled a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure

= $P(Y\geq 1)$ where Y is binomial with p = 0.72

= $1-(1-0.72)^7\\=0.9999$

b) the probability that at least one has called a talk showcalled a talk show while under the influence of peer pressurepeer pressurethe probability that at least one has not called a talk showcalled a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure

= $P(x\geq 1) =1-P(0)\\= 1-(1-0.28)^7\\=0.8997$
