Astudent has $1500 to deposit in a savings account. what is the lowest rate that would allow the student to earn $95 in simple interest in a year?

rate = interest / principal

rate = 95/ 1500 = 0.0633333

rate = 6.33%

6.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

A student has $1,500 to deposit in a savings account.

Interest = Principal × rate of interest

Let the rate of interest be x%

95.00 = 1,500 × (x/100)

95.00 = 15x

x =  

x = 6.33%

The lowest interest rate is 6.3% in a year.

step-by-step explanation:

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

subtract 15 from all parts

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

this means how many more cookies he has to make

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies, but no more than 40 cookies; 5 ≤ x ≤ 40
