Simon put $15000 in an account with a simple interest rate of 4.5%. How much interest will be earned after 8 years?

1 answer:

4 0

$~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$15000\\ r=rate\to 4.5\%\to \frac{4.5}{100}\dotfill &0.045\\ t=years\dotfill &8 \end{cases} \\\\\\ I = (15000)(0.045)(8)\implies I=5400$

What is 33<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="\frac{1}{3}" alt="\frac{1}{3}" align=

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

33.3 Repeating

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You already know that 33 is the whole number so you have 33.

2. 1/3 is converted to .3333333 so you put 33 before the decimal point

3. You get 33.3333333

Hope this helps :)

2/7m-1/7=3/14 help this is so confusing

Free_Kalibri [48]

Solution for $\frac{2}{7}m - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14} \ is \ m = \frac{5}{4} \ or \ m = 1\frac{1}{4} \ or \ m = 1.25$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A case about one variable linear quations. We have to solve the equation to get the variable m. Let's isolate the variable m alone at the end of the process on one side of the equation, until the variable will be equal to a value on the opposite side.

We add $\frac{1}{7}$ to both sides:

$\frac{2}{7}m - \frac{1}{7} + \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{1}{7}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{1}{7}$

On the right side for the addition operation, we equate the common denominator by multiplying $\ \frac{1}{7} \ by \ \frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{2}{14}$

Then we combine terms to get:

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{5}{14}$

We divide by the coefficient of m, or in other words, multiply both sides by $\frac{7}{2}$ :

$\frac{2}{7}m \times \frac{7}{2} = \frac{5}{14} \times \frac{7}{2}$

Finally, the solution is obtained as follows

$m = \frac{35}{28}$

We simplify fractions, both the numerator and denominator are divided equally by 7.

$\boxed{ \ m = \frac{5}{4} \ }$

In the form of mixed fractions, we get:

$\boxed{ \ m = 1 \frac{1}{4} \ }$

In decimal form, we get

$m = 1 \frac{25}{100} \rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = 1.25 \ }$

Check the solution into the equation:

$\big( \frac{2}{7} \times \frac{5}{4} \big) - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{10}{28} - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{5}{14} - \frac{2}{14} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{3}{14} = \frac{3}{14}$

Both sides show the same value, so the solution is correct.

Quick steps in summary:

$\frac{2}{7}m - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{1}{7}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{2}{14}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{5}{14}$

$m = \frac{5}{14} \times \frac{7}{2}$

$m = \frac{35}{28}$

$\rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = \frac{5}{4} \ }$

$\rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = 1 \frac{1}{4} \ }$

$\rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = 1.25 \ }$

Note:

The important thing to do is how to manipulate both sides of the equation with the algebraic properties of equality such as:

adding,
subtracting,
multiplying, and/or
dividing both sides of the equation with the same number.

All these processes can occur repeatedly until the isolated variables are obtained on one side of the equation. In the form of fractions, the steps that must be considered are

equate the denominator,
simplify fractions, and
turn fractions into mixed fractions or decimal forms.

Let's practice a lot until you get used to and know which operations should be done first.
