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

A school has a 20:2 student - teacher ratio graph a line representing this scenario part b what is the unit rate
9966 [12]
The unit rate is 10:1 because unit rates are out of 1
You would find that by dividing 20 and 2 by the same number to get to one for this specific problem. 20 divided by two is ten and two divided by two is one. So that is your answer for part b. I can’t draw a graph however so sorry
