Answer:

50 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for simple interest:

I = Prt

where

I = interest earned

P = principal amount deposited

r = annual interest rate

t = number of years

When the account reaches $2000, $500 is from the principal and

$2000 - $500 = $1500 is from the interest.

We use the simple interest formula to find the number of years needed to earn $1500 in interest from $500 principal at 6% interest rate.

1500 = 500 * 0.06 * t

t = 50

Answer: 50 years

Answer:

50 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal= $500

Rate= 6%

Amount = $2000

The simple interest expression is given as

A=P(1+rt)

Substitute

2000= 500(1+0.06*t)

open bracket

2000=500+ 30t

2000-500=30t

1500=30t

t= 1500/30

t= 50 years

Hence the time is 50 years

Round 71290 to the nearest 10 what's the answer?
Aloiza [94]
71290 because the ones are 0 and zero is lower than 5 
so it wouldn't add anything to the tens 

the rule is if the number is more than 5+ it will add 1 to the next number
for example if we have this number 189 and we want to round it to the nearest 10 ..
we will see the ones place is it more than 5+ ? YEAH bcz its 9 ...
so 9 will add one to the tense and the answer will be 190 :) 

hope you got the point .

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

I don't any  choices to pick from but using the distributive property you will multiply the -4 by everything in the parenthesis.

-4(32x - 12) = -15

=-128x + 48 = -15.
