Answer:
$9,000.00 is her original investment worth in 10 yrs.
5000 x 1.08 ^10 = 10794.6249864
Then subtract -500000 = 5794.62498636
Step-by-step explanation:
Why, because the first year is proved 5000 x 0.08 = 400
= 400 year 1 but cna keep only if stays in investment for 10 years
400 x 10 = 4000 interest on investment
5000+ 4000 = $9,000.00 SI
+ 1,794.62 Interest on interest if applies (this is called CI) and makes $10794.62
well, we know that 213.90 includes the 15% gratuity, so if the meal price was say "x", namely that is the 100%, and we add 15% to that, then 100% + 15% = 115%, so 213.90 is really the 115%.
now, if 213.90 is the 115.%, what is "x"? the 100%.

so since we know the meal without the tip is 186 bucks, the tip was then 213.90 - 186 = 27.90.
but they got extra potato wedges with butter and the waitress was wearing her best hat, they added $20 more, so the tip ended up as 27.90 + 20 = 47.90.
now, if the cost of the meal was $186 and that is the 100%, what is 47.90 off of it in percentage?

I beilive the answer to that is niether.
hope this helped!
10 +10 good luck have fun
