1 answer:

6 0

If the price was $1 and it increased by 15% it would now be $1.15 therefore the multiplier is 1.15 as that increases a number by 15%

Answer:

The first one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets calculate the interest after one year.

1) 500 * (1.04) = 520

2) 600 * (1.025) = 615.

As you can tell the first one earned 20 dollars in the first year while the second one earned 15 dollars in the same year. This means that the first one has earned more interest.

Hope this helps.

8÷2(2+2)=? I came up with an answer, but others have come up with different answers based on way we were taught. Would like your

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Okey dokey my dude, here's the deal. All you have to do to answer this is use order of operations (parentheses exponents multiplication division addition subtraction).

8÷2(2+2)=?

//parenthesis first

8÷2(4)

//Ok here's where people will mess up. They just look at the problem and assume that you should multiply the 2 and (4) first because the 4 is in parenthesis. That's understandable, but wrong. What the equation should really look like is 8÷2·4. So you should do 8÷2 first.

8÷2·4=?

4·4=?

16=16
