An account earns simple interest.
$1500 at 4% for 5 years
a. find the interest earned.
$

b. find the balance of the account.
$

The formula for simple interest is given by

I=PRT

We are given P=$1500

R=4% or 0.04

T=5 years

plugging them in the equation I=PRT , we get

I =1500*0.04*5 = 300

so interest is $300

Amount =P+I

Amount =1500+300 =1800

Amount $1800

step-by-step explanation:

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
