How much interest (in dollars) will Alex receive after 2 years if he deposited $14,000 in the bank at 3.5% annual interest rate?

Davit received $870 as an interest for money invested in Foreign Exchange Market three years ago. How much money did he invest, if the annual interest was 4%. For starting a new business, Arthur borrowed $23000 and calculated $3450 interest for five years. What annual interest was considered?

Answer:

a) Interest = $980

b) Principal = $7250

c) Interest rate = 3%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) For Alex

How much interest (in dollars) will Alex receive after 2 years if he deposited $14,000 in the bank at 3.5% annual interest rate?

The formula for Simple Interest = PRT

Where

P = Principal = $14,000

R = Interest rate = 3.5% = 0.035

T = Time = 2 years

I = $14,000 × 0.035 × 2

I = $980

b) For Davit

Davit received $870 as an interest for money invested in Foreign Exchange Market three years ago. How much money did he invest, if the annual interest was 4%

The formula for Simple Interest = PRT

Where

P = Principal = ?

R = Interest rate = 4% = 0.04

I = $870

T = 3 years

years

Solving for P

P = I/RT

P = $870/0.04 × 3

P = $870/0.12

P = $7250

c) For Arthur

. For starting a new business, Arthur borrowed $23000 and calculated $3450 interest for five years. What annual interest was considered?

The formula for Simple Interest = PRT

Where

P = Principal = $23,000

R = Interest rate = ?

I = $3450

T = 5 years

years

We are Solving for R

R = I/PT

R = $3450/$23,000× 5

R = 3450/115000

R = 0.03

Converting to percentage

= 0.03 × 100

= 3%

Elena went on a 6-mile walk. She completed the first half of the walk 1 mi/h faster than usual and the second half of the walk 2

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Her usual rate is 0.8333 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity formula is given by:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

In which d is the distance and t is the time.

She completed the first half of the walk 1 mi/h faster than usual

Her usual rate is v. 1mph faster is v + 1.

The second half of the walk 2 mi/h slower than the first half.

The first half is v + 1.

2mph slower is v + 1 - 2 = v - 1. Then

Total rate:

7.2 hours, and 6 miles. So

One half is v+1 and the other is v - 1. This is why each is multiplied by 0.5.

$0.5(v + 1) + 0.5(v - 1) = \frac{6}{7.2}$

$0.5v + 0.5 + 0.5v - 0.5 = 0.8333$

$v = 0.8333$

Her usual rate is 0.8333 miles per hour.

Assume that blood pressure readings are normally distributed with a mean of 123 and a standard deviation of 9.6. If 144 people a

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

The probability is 0.9938

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the probability that the mean blood pressure readings of a group of people is less than a certain reading.

To calculate this, we use the z score.

Mathematically;

z = (mean - value)/(standard deviation/√N)

From the question, we can identify that the mean is 125, the value is 123 , the standard deviation is 9.6 and N ( total population is 144)

Let’s plug these values;

z = (125-123)/(9.6/√144) = 2.5

Now we proceed to calculate the probability with a s score less than 2.5 using statistical tables

P(z<2.5) = 0.9938

What is the difference of 8 times a number r and 12?

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The difference of 8 times a number r and 12 is solved for a number r and is given by $r=\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem is the difference of 8 times a number r and 12

It can be written as

$(8\times r)-12$

To simplify the above expression :

8r-12

$8r-12=0$

$8r-12+12=0+12$ ( using addition property of equality )

$8r=12$

$8r(\frac{1}{8})=12(\frac{1}{8})$ (using division property of equality )

$r=\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore $r=\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore the difference of 8 times a number r and 12 is solved for a number r and is given by $r=\frac{3}{2}$
