Answer:

Number of boys is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hint: number of girls added to number of boys must equal 27

27/3 = 9

boys: girls ratio is 1:2, so boys constitute 1/3 of the class

boys -> 1 x 9 = 9

girls -> 2 x 9 = 18

(to check, 9 + 18 = 27. If solution is still unclear, try drawing a pie of 3 equal components to represent a 1:2 ratio of slices)

Molly opened a savings account with a one‐time deposit of $100 that will be left in the account for at least 5 years. The saving

Anettt [7]

The amount of interest Molly will earn after 5 years on a deposit of $\$100$ compounded annually over 5 years is $\$27.63$

First, we need to find the future value of her investment, then we subtract the original deposit from it to get the amount of interest she will get at the end of 5 years.

The future value of an investment that is compounded annually is given by

$A=P(1+r)^t$

where

$A=\text{Amount of money in Molly's account after 5 years}\\P=\text{Molly's initial deposit into her account}=\$500\\r=\text{The annual interest rate as a decimal}=0.05\\t=\text{The time the money is invested (in years)}=5$
