Answer: $1090
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Caroline won $205000 in a lottery and then paid $96000 in taxes, the remaining amount will be:
= $205000 - $96000
= $109000
The interest that the account will earn after just 6 months will be:
Interest = PRT
= 109000 × 2% × 6/12
= 109000 × 0.02 × 0.5
= $1090
Answer:
width = 6
length = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter = 2L + 2W
L = W - 2
plug in perimeter:
20 = 2L + 2W
you know the length is 2 less than the width
plug in (w - 2) for L:
20 = 2(w - 2) + 2w
solve for w:
20 = 2w - 4 + 2w
20 = 4w - 4
4w = 24
w = 6
now plug in 6 for w in either equation, whichever is easier to solve:
L = 6 - 2
L = 4
width = 6
length = 4
