Based on the information given the original size of the bottle is 17.5 ounces.

Using this formula

Original size of the bottle =New bottle size / Percentage increase

Where:

New bottle size=18.4 ounces

Percentage increase=(1+0.05)=1.05

Let plug in the formula

Original size of the bottle=18.4/(1+0.05)

Original size of the bottle=18.4/1.05

Original size of the bottle=17.5 ounces

Inconclusion the original size of the bottle is 17.5 ounces.

Find the<br>simple interest:<br>Princpd $6000<br>Interest Rate 5%<br>Time: 6 months<br>Start​
sattari [20]

Answer: The interest is: $150.00

The formula we'll use for this is the simple interest formula, or:

Where:

   P is the principal amount, $6000.00.

   r is the interest rate, 5% per year, or in decimal form, 5/100=0.05.

   t is the time involved, 6....month(s) time periods.

   Since your interest rate is "per year" and you gave your time interval in "month(s)" we need to convert your time interval into "year" as well.

       Do this by dividing your time, 6- month(s), by 12, since there's 12 months in 1 year.

   So, t is 0.5....year time periods.

To find the simple interest, we multiply 6000 × 0.05 × 0.5 to get that:

The interest is: $150.00
