I think a good situation would be when people would stop consuming pasta because they are currently planning to lose weight. 

For restaurants that specialize in pasta would definitely be affected by the situation. They would definitely lower down the prices of their pasta specials. It would also affect the producers of pasta because of the decline of these restaurants. For the consumers' end, it would not affect them much because they can substitute pasta with another food which is healthier for them.

Jim makes a $1,000 deposit in an account paying 4% interest per year. He would like to withdraw two equal amounts: in one year a
FromTheMoon [43]

Based on the amount that Jim deposited and the interest paid per year on the account, withdrawing in two equal amounts would require an amount of <u>$530 per year. </u>

<h3>How much should Jim withdraw per year?</h3><h3 />

Assuming the amount that can be withdrawn is x, the relevant formula would be:

(1,040 - x)  x 104 = 100x

Solving for x gives:

108,160 - 104x = 100x

108,160 = 100x + 104x

108,160 = 204x

x = 108,160 / 204

=  $530

Katie invested a total of ​$4000​, part at 2​% simple interest and part at 3​% simple interest. At the end of 1​ year, the inves
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

$2,500; $1,500

Explanation:

Given that,

Total amount invested = $4,000

Let the amount invested at 2% be x,

and the amount invested at 3% be (4,000 - x)

Interest earned = $95

Time period = 1 year

Simple interest = Principle × Interest rate × Time period

$95 = (x × 0.02 × 1) + [(4,000 - x) × 0.03 × 1)

$95 = 0.02x + 120 - 0.03x

$95 = -0.01x + 120

0.01x = 120 - 95

0.01x = 25

x = 2,500

Therefore,

Amount invested at 2% = x = $2,500

Amount invested at 3% = (4,000 - x)

                                       = 4,000 - 2,500

                                       = $1,500
