(!!WORD PROBLEM!!)
Ivan

Answer: a package of cookies cost $ 5 and each bag of chips cost $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of a package of  cookies and y represent the cost of a bap of chips ,then from the first statement :

4x + 4y = 40

dividing through by 4 , we have

x + y = 10 ........................... equation 1

From the second statement

3x + 5y = 40  ..................... equation 2

Solving the system of linear equation by substitution method , from equation 1 , make x the subject of the formula , that is

x = 10 - y ................... equation 3

substitute x = 10 - y into equation 2 , we have :

3 (10 - y ) + 5y = 40

30 - 3y + 5y = 40

30 + 2y = 40

subtract 30 from both sides

2y = 40 -30

2y = 10

y = 5

substitute y = 5 into equation 3 , equation 3 becomes

x = 10 - 5

x = 5

Therefore ; a package of cookies cost $ 5 and each bag of chips cost $5

Suppose you'd like to save enough money to pay cash for your next car. The goal is to save an extra $28,000 over the next 6 year
Anna35 [415]

Given:

• Amount to save, A = $28,000

,

• Time, t = 6 years

,

• Interest rate, r = 5.3% ==> 0.053

,

• Number of times compounded = quarterly = 4 times

Let's find the amount that must be deposited into the account quarterly.

Apply the formula:

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

Where:

FV is the future value = $28,000

r = 0.053

n = 4

t = 6 years

Thus, we have:

28000=P(\frac{(1+\frac{0.053}{4})^{4\times6}-1)}{\frac{0.053}{4}}

Let's solve for P.

We have:

\begin{gathered} 28000=P(\frac{(1+0.01325)^{24}-1}{0.01325}) \\  \\ 28000=P(\frac{(1.01325)^{24}-1)^{}}{0.01325}) \\  \\ 28000=P(\frac{1.371509114-1}{0.01325}) \\  \\ 28000=P(\frac{0.371509114}{0.01325}) \end{gathered}

Solving further:

28000=P(28.0384237)

Divide both sides by 28.0384237:

\begin{gathered} \frac{28000}{28.0384237}=\frac{P(28.0384237)}{28.0384237} \\  \\ 998.6=P \\  \\ P=998.6 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the amount that must be deposited quarterly into the account is $998.60

ANSWER:

$998.60

Katy invests a total of $26,500 in two accounts paying 4% and 9% annual interest, respectively. How much was invested in each ac
White raven [17]
A = amount invested at 4%.

b = amount invested at 9%.

we know the total amount invested was $26500, thus a + b = 26500.

whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.

how much is 4% of a?  well, is just (4/100) * a, or 0.04a.

how much is 9% of b?  well, is just (9/100) * b, or 0.09b.

we know the interest yielded for both amounts adds up to $1510, thus 0.04a + 0.09b = 1510.

\bf \begin{cases}
a+b=26500\implies \boxed{b}=26500-a\\
0.04a+0.09b=1510\\
----------------\\
0.04a+0.09\left( \boxed{26500-a} \right)=1510
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
0.04-0.09a+2385=1510\implies -0.05a=-875
\\\\\\
a=\cfrac{-875}{-0.05}\implies a=17500

how much was invested at 9%?  well, b = 26500 - a.
