Answer:

You should invest $2000 at 5% simple interest in order to earn $100 interest in 12 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula

I = Prt

where

I = Interest earned

P = The principal (let say in $)

r = The Interest Rate

t = time

Given that

  • I = $100
  • r = 5%
  • t = 12 month = 1 year
  • P = The principal amount needed to invest (let say in $)

Thus,

I = Prt

100 = P × 5% × 1

100 = P × 5/100 × 1

100 × 100 = P × 5

10000 = P × 5

P = 10000/5

  = 2000 (let say in $)

Thus, you should invest $2000 at 5% simple interest in order to earn $100 interest in 12 months.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the amount of time we need to find out, t.

=> 600 + 50t < 500 + 100t

or 600 - 500 < 100t - 50t

or 100 < 50t

or 100/50 < t

or t > 2

=> After 2 hours, company B will be cheaper option than company A
