Answer: 39 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

At first, the warehouse worker loads a cart with 14 boxes and the boxes have an average weight of 24 pounds. The total weight of the boxes will be:

= 14 × 24

= 336 pounds

Since the worker picks up a new box and puts it on the cart and the average weight of the boxes is 25 pounds. It means that the boxes are now 15 and their total weight will be:

= 15 × 25

= 375 pounds

The weight of the new box will be:

= 375 - 336

= 39 pounds

A percentage change can be calculated from ...

  percentage change = ((new value)/(old value) -1) × 100%

A trust fund worth $25,000 is invested in two different portfolios. This year, one portfolio is expected to earn 5.25% interest
solong [7]

Answer:

$12 000 in Portfolio 1 and $13 000 in Portfolio 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is  

I = Prt

For each portfolio, t = 1 yr

For Portfolio 1, i = 5.25 % = 0.0525

For Portfolio 2, i = 4 %       = 0.04

         Let x = amount invested in Portfolio 1. Then

25 000 - x = amount invested in Portfolio 2 and

\begin{array}{rcr}0.0525x + 0.04(25000- x) & = & 1150\\0.0525x+ 1000 - 0.04x & = & 1150\\0.0125x + 1000 & = & 1150\\0.0125x & = & 150\\x & = & 12000\\\end{array}

25 000 - x = 25 000 - 12 000 = 13 000

So, $12 000 is invested in Portfolio 1 and $13 000 is invested in Portfolio 2.

Check:

\begin{array}{rcl}0.0525 \times 12000 + 0.04(25000 - 12000)& = & 1150\\630 + 0.04(13000) & = & 1150\\630 + 520 & = & 1150\\1150 & = & 1150\\\end{array}

OK.
