Answer:

"She invested $2500 in 5% account and $5500 in 8% account"

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested in 5% account be "x"

So, the amount invested in 8% account would be "8000 - x"

Interest amount is the percentage multiplied by amount invested. So

Interest of 5% account = 5% of x = 0.05x

Interest of 8% account = 8 % of 8000 - x = 0.08(8000 - x)

Total interest is the sum of these 2 expressions that EQUATES to 565 (given). Let's solve for x:

0.05x + 0.08(8000 - x) = 565\\0.05x+640-0.08x=565\\0.03x=75\\x=2500

and thus,

"8000 - x" = 8000 - 2500 = 5500

Hence,

She invested $2500 in 5% account and $5500 in 8% account

Use the multiplier method to decrease £27 by 8%. You must show your working.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

decrease by 2.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.

P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.

Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.

Compare the scores: a score of 75 on a test with a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 8 and a score of 75 on a test with a m
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The Zscore for both test is the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

TEST 1:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 65

Standard deviation (s) = 8

TEST 2:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 70

Standard deviation (s) = 4

USING the relation to obtain the standardized score :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

TEST 1:

Zscore = (75 - 65) / 8

Zscore = 10/8

Zscore = 1.25

TEST 2:

Zscore = (75 - 70) / 4

Zscore = 5/4

Zscore = 1.25

The standardized score for both test is the same.
