Micah deposited $4000 between two savings account. One account earns 4% simple interest each year. The other account earns 2% simple interest. Last year Micah earned $140 interest on the accounts. What amount was originally deposited into the account that pays 4% interest?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The amount that is deposited at 4 % simple interest is $ 3000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the total amount deposited = $ 4000,

Let x be the amount that is deposited at the rate of 4 % simple interest,

⇒ The amount deposited at the rate of 2% simple interest = ( 4000 - x ) dollars,

We know that,

The simple interest on an amount is,

I=(P* r* t)/(100)

Where, P is the principal amount, r is rate of interest and t is time,

Thus, the total interest he earned in a year

I=(x* 4* 1)/(100)+((4000-x)* 2* 1)/(100)

=(4x)/(100)+(2(4000-x))/(100)

=(4x+2(4000-x))/(100)

According to the question,

I = $ 140,

\implies (4x+2(4000-x))/(100)=140

(2x+8000)/(100)=140

2x+8000=14000

2x=6000

x=3000

Hence, the amount that is deposited at 4 % simple interest is $ 3000.

Answer 2
Answer: $3000 * 0.04 = $120
$100 * 0.02 = $20

total 2 accounts = $120 + $20 = $140

answer: $3000 was the originally 
deposited into the account that pays 4% interest.

Answers

Answer:

a. C=20x + 44 where C is total cost, and x is the number of months.

b. $164

Step-by-step explanation:

Where C is total cost, and x is the number of months, we get the equation

C=20x + 44

the 20 is the monthly fee and the 44 is the initial membership fee which is only paid once.

To get the answer for b plug in 6 as the x. The equation gives you the answer $164.

Part A would be C=20x+44

For part b, you plug in 6 to that equation and you get $164
