Answer:

15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P=$1,000

R=8%

A= $2200

I= A-P

I=2200-1000

I=$1200

Applying the formula

I=PRT/100

1200=1000*8*T/100

cross multiply

1200*100= 8000T

120000= 8000T

divide both sides by 8000

T=120000/8000

T=15  years

Hence the time is 15 years

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

11,448 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area can be computed from ...

... A = 2(LW +H(L+W))

For the given prism, the area will be ...

... A = 2(18·12 +14(18+12)) = 2(216 +420) = 1272 . . . . in²

The area of a similar figure with dimensions 3 times as long will be 3² times as much. The area of the new figure is ...

... A = 3²×(1272 in²) = 11,448 in²

The cost of petrol rises by 2 cents a liter. Last week a man bought 20 liters at the old price. This week he bought 10 liters at
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: the old price for 1 liter is $0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the old price for 1 liter of petrol.

Last week a man bought 20 liters at the old price. This means that the total amount that the man paid for 20 liters is 20x.

The cost of petrol rises by 2 cents a liter. This means that the new price per liter is x + 2/100 = x + 0.02

This week he bought 10 liters at the new price. This means that the total amount that the man paid for 10 liters is

10(x + 0.02)

= 10x + 0.2

Altogether, the petrol costs $9.20. This means that

20x + 10x + 0.2 = 9.2

30x + 0.2 = 9.2

30x = 9.2 - 0.2

30x = 9

x = 9/30

x = 0.3
