Answer:
$5084745.76271
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Final amount= $6000000
Rate=6%
Time= 3 years
Now let us find the initial amount which is the principal
using the simple interest formula we have
6000000 = P(1+0.06*3)
6000000 =P(1+0.18)
6000000 =P*1.18
P= 6000000 /1.18
P=$5084745.76271
Hence the initial deposite is $5084745.76271
Answer:
Eric's father work 5 hours each afternoon
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the no. of hours Eric's father work each afternoon
He works for hours in morning each day = 3
He works for total hours in morning in 5 days=
He works for total hours in afternoon in 5 days=5x
We are given that he works a total of 40 hours each 5-day workweek.
ATQ
15+5x=40
5x=25
x=5
Hence Eric's father work 5 hours each afternoon
Answer:
Increasing a number by 5% and then by 20% is the same as increasing the original number by 26%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Take a number, x.
Now increase it by 5%.
1.05x
Now increase it by 20%.
1.2 * 1.05x = 1.26x
1.26x = 126% of x = 100% of x + 26% of x
100% of x is the same as x, so it is the same as the original x.
The increase is 26% of the original number.
Increasing a number by 5% and then by 20% is the same as increasing the original number by 26%.
The first problem is true because with multiplication it doesn't matter which order it is in.
The second problem is false because you will get a different quotient depending on which numbers are on which side of the equation.
