Answer:
93
Step-by-step explanation:
Setup an equation. Add the 5 tests together, the unknown test will be represented by x, Since there are 5 tests total, you will divide by 5. to find the average.
To solve first multiply both side by 5.
Add the left side and then solve for x
Subtract 357 from both sides
357 - 357 + x = 450 - 357
x = 93
The last test has to be a score of 93 to get an average of 90.
You add all the like terms together to get your final answer
The age of Blain is 23 years old
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Let the age of Blain be "a" and age of Jillian be "b"
Given that Blain is two years older than three times Jillians age
So we can frame a equation as:
age of blain = 2 + 3(age of Jillian)
a = 2 + 3b ----- eqn 1
Also given that Jillian is also 16 years younger than Blain
Age of Jillain = Age of Blain - 16
b = a - 16 ---- eqn 2
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
a = 2 + 3(a - 16)
a = 2 + 3a - 48
a - 3a = -46
-2a = -46
a = 23
Thus the age of Blain is 23 years old

Answer:
$20.01
Step-by-step explanation:
In 2004–2012, the interest rate is 0.002%. In 2013, it is 0.004%. In 2014–2021, the interest rate is 0.002%. That is, in the 18 years between 2004 and 2021 (inclusive), the interest rate is 0.002% for 17 of them. The effective account multiplier is ...
(1.00002^17)(1.00004^1) = 1.00038006801
Then the account balance is ...
$20 × 1.00038006801 ≈ $20.01
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The annual interest earned on $20.00 is $0.0004. If the account balance is rounded to the nearest cent annually, at the end of the 18 years, the balance will still be $20.00. Not enough interest is earned in one year to increase the balance above $20. At the end of the 18 years, the amount of interest earned is 0.76¢ (a fraction of a penny) <em>only if there is no rounding in intervening years</em>.
