Answer:

first account with 6% interest ( x ) = $46000

second account with 4% interest ( y ) = $19000

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal = $65000

first interest rate = 6%

second interest rate = 4%

assuming ; X = money invested in first account ,  Y = money invested in second account

hence :

( 65000 - y ) * 6% + ( 65000 - x ) * 4% = 3520

3900 - 0.06 y  + 2600 - 0.04 x = 3520

0.04 x + 0.06 y = 3900 + 2600 - 3520

0.04 x + 0.06 y = 2980 ----- ( 1)

        x + y = 65000  ------- ( 2 )

solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously by elimination method

0.04 x + 0.06 y = 2980 ------  ( 3 )

0.06 x + 0.06 y = 3900 ------- ( 4 )

subtract equation 3 form equation 4

0.02 x  = 920 ,   hence x = $46000

therefore y = $65000 - $46000 =  $19000

Mr. Black bought 2 magazines for $9.95 each and 1 book for $14.95. If the sales tax is 6%, what is the total cost of Mr. Black's
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

$36.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so. This is what we do. There is two magazines and they cost 9.95 each multiply 9.95 times 2

9.95 x 2 = 19.90

Okay, then he buys a book for 14.95 we add 19.9. and 14.95

19.90 + 14.95 = 34.85

Then we have a sales tax of 6% we would multiply 34.85 time 6%

34.85 x 6% = 2.09

Then we would add. 34.85 + 2.09

34.85 + 2.09 = 36.94

Therefore your answer is $36.94

Hope this helps!!!
