I would say number 2 but dont take my word for it
There are infinitely many solutions to this problem (which is why it asks what could those numbers be), so you just have to make one up!
Start with the first sentence.
x + y + z = 6.0
Now one of those numbers has to be less than 1. I'll choose x. And I'll choose a random number, say, 0.7.
0.7 + y + z = 6.0
Now I'll subtract 0.7 from both sides to see what y and z have to add up to.
0.7 + y + z - 0.7 = 6.0 - 0.7
y + z = 5.3
Now I'll choose a random number for y that's less than 5.3.
2.6 + z = 5.3
And subtract 2.6 from both sides to find z.
2.6 + z - 2.6 = 5.3 - 2.6
z = 2.7
And now we have our numbers!
x = <u>0.7</u>
y = <u>2.6</u>
z = <u>2.7</u>

Answer:
$50
Step-by-step explanation:
The compounding period is 1 year, and the period of concern is 1 year. This means the simple interest formula will tell the answer to the question.
I = Prt
I = ($5000)(0.01)(1) . . . . . r = annual rate; t = years
I = $50
The interest earned in the account is $50.
