<h3>
Answer:</h3>
4.5% annually
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Simple interest is the amount of interest added to a singular sum of money at a fixed rate.
Formula
The formula for simple interest is A = P(1+rt). In this formula, A is the total amount of money in the account, P is the original amount deposited, r is the rate of interest as a decimal, and t is the time in years.
Calculations
To find the rate, plug the information we know into the formula above
Divide both sides by 100
Subtract 1 from both sides
Divide both sides by 5
This gives us the rate as a decimal. So, to find the rate as a percent. Do this by moving the decimal 2 places to the right (or just multiply by 100, they do the same thing). This means that the rate of simple interest is 4.5%.
>First jump = 4.25 m
>Best jump = 1.12 * First jump
Best jump = 1.12 * (4.25 m)
Best jump = 4.76 m
>Best jump = 0.85 * Winning jump
Hence,
Winning jump = Best jump / 0.85
Winning jump = 4.76 m / 0.85

A)
Kim's age=k
Sister's age=s
k=2s
k+s=36
b)
k=2s
k+s=36
k=36-s
2s=36-s
3s=36
s=12
12*2=24
Kim is 24 and her sister is 12
Hope this helps :)
