Solution:

1. Account balance of customer=  $ 1,000

Interest earned in checking account= 0.75%

Financial charge= $ 2

So, income earned in one month on the checking account

= 0.75% of 1,000 - $ 2

Option (B) $ 5.50

2. Checking account earnings at Baker’s Bank  (I) = -0.09 x + 10.2

    The earnings at Elite Bank are modeled by: I = -0.02 x + 7.5

The number of checks when Elite Bank start generating more checking account income than Baker's Bank is given by inequality,

→→ -0.02 x +7.5 > -0.09 x +10.2

→→ -0.02 x + 0.09 x > 10.2 - 7.5

→→0.07 x > 2.7

→→

So, the number of checks should be a whole number.

So, when number of checks = 39,→→Option (C) Elite Bank will start generating more checking account income than Baker's Bank.

3. Total amount in Emilio's checking account at the end of the week=( Beginning Balance= $ 728.32) -[4 Checks=( 99.48 +33.50 +18.23 +72.05)]+ $ 1109.90(Paycheck amount)

= 1109.90 + 728.32 - 223.26

= $1614.96 →→ Option (D)

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p

the first option is the answer.
