The corporate team-building event will cost $14 if it has 7 attendees. If there are 9

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: for 9 attendees it would cost $18

Step-by-step explanation: First you have to find the unit rate. So for every 7 attendees it costs $14, divide them both by the GCF which is 7. 14÷7=2

7÷7=1

So for every 1 attendee it is $2.

Now to figure out how much it would cost for 9 attendees, figure out what you have to do to 1 to get 9. Multiply it by 9.

And whatever you do to one number you have to do for the other. So $2 • 9 = $18

So for every 9 attendees it costs $18.

Emma has money into savings accounts. One rate is 8% and the other is 12%. If she has $450 more in the 12% account and the total

AveGali [126]

Let's say that the value invested in the account with a rate of 8% is "x", then the amount invested in the account with a rate of 12% is:

$x+450$

To calculate the total interest we need to calculate the interest of each individual account and sum them:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{8}{100}\cdot x=0.08\cdot x \\ \frac{12}{100}\cdot(x+450)=0.12\cdot x+54 \end{gathered}$

The total interest is the sum of the two expressions above:

$\begin{gathered} 220=(0.08\cdot x)+(0.12\cdot x+54) \\ 220=0.08\cdot x+0.12\cdot x+54 \\ 220-54=0.2\cdot x \\ 166=0.2\cdot x \\ 0.2\cdot x=166 \\ x=\frac{166}{0.2} \\ x=830 \end{gathered}$

The value invested in the account with 8% interest is 830, the one invested in the account with 12% interest is 1280.
