Answer:

  2.5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the number of pounds of dried strawberries that should be added to the bananas. The total cost of the mixture will be ...

  (2.50)(3) +(8.00)(s) = (5.00)(3 +s)

  7.50 +8s = 15 +5s . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  3s = 7.50 . . . . . . . . . subtract 7.50+5s

  s = 2.50 . . . . . . divide by 3

2.5 pounds of dried strawberries should be added to make the mixture.

G:$2.99
R:$16.99

For every 1R we have 3G.
1R+3G=$16.99+3($2.99)
So 1R+3G=$25.96

If we take $129.80÷$25.96, we get 5.
So let's try 5.

5R+15G=5($16.99)+15($2.99)
So 5R+15G=$129.80

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

P =500, r = 0.036, t = 5 , n=4

n=4 because we have a quarterly rate

After replace the values given we got:

A =500 (1+\frac{0.036}{4})^{4*5} = 598.127

If we round this answer to the nearest number we got approximately $598 after 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can ue the compund interest formula for the future value given by:

A = P(1 +\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where P represent the initial amount , t the number of years and r the rate of interest on fraction. The value of n represent the number of times that the interest rate is compound in a year

For our case we have:

P =500, r = 0.036, t = 5 , n=4

n=4 because we have a quarterly rate

After replace the values given we got:

A =500 (1+\frac{0.036}{4})^{4*5} = 598.127

If we round this answer to the nearest number we got approximately $598 after 5 years.
