$1,100 per month for 10 years, if the account earns 2% per year$1,100 per month for 10 years, if the account earns 2% per year
What the student or parent is asking is: If they deposit $1,100 per month in a savings/investment account every month for 10 years, and they earn 2% per year, how much will the account be worth after 10 years?
Deposits are monthly. But interest crediting is annual. What we want is to match the two based on interest crediting time, which is annual or yearly.
1100 per month. * 12 months in a year = 13,200 per year in deposit
Since we matched interest crediting period with deposits, we now want to know:
If they deposit $13,200 per year in a savings/investment account every year for 10 years, and they earn 2% per year, how much will the account be worth after 10 years?
This is an annuity, which is a constant stream of payments with interest crediting at a certain period.

3 cases of fresh apples that cost $21.95 per case with 20% off and a 7.5% sales tax3 cases of fresh apples that cost $21.95 per case with 20% off and a 7.5% sales tax
Figure out the total cost before the discount:
Total Cost before discount = Cases * Price per case
Total Cost before discount = 3 cases * $21.95 per case
Total Cost before discount = $65.85
Now, find the discounted value of the apples:
Discounted Apple Price = Total Cost before discount * (1 - discount percent)
Discounted ApplesPrice = $65.85 * (1 - 0.2) <-- 20% is the same as 0.2
Discounted ApplesPrice = $65.85 * 0.8
Discounted ApplesPrice = $52.68
Now, apply the sales tax to this discounted value to get the total bill:
Total Bill = Discounted Apple Price * (1 + tax rate)
Total Bill = $52.68 * (1 + .075) <-- 7.5% = 0.075

A person invests $9400 in an account at 5% interest compound annually. When will the value of the inA person invests $9400 in an account at 5% interest compound annually. When will the value of the investment be $12,800.
Let's take it one year at a time:
Year 1: 9,400(1.05) = 9,870
Year 2: 9,870(1.05) = 10,363.50
Year 3: 10,363.50(1.05) = 10,881.68
Year 4: 10.881.68(1.05) = 11,425.76
Year 5: 11,425.76(1.05) = 11,997.05
Year 6: 11,997.05(1.05) = 12.596.90
Year 7: 12,596.90(1.05) = 13,226.74

Since 30% = 0.3, we have
Discounted Price = 35 * (1 - 0.3)
Discounted Price = 35 * 0.7
Discounted Price = 24.5
Calculate after-tax amount:
After-tax amount = Discounted Price * (1 + Tax Percent)
Since 8% = 0.08, we have
Discounted Price = 24.5 * (1 + 0.08)
Discounted Price = 24.5 * 1.08
Discounted Price = [B]26.46[/B]

Find the discounted price: 15% off of 192.94
Discounted Price = 192.94 * (1 - 0.15) <-- 15% as a decimal is 0.15, and 1 is 100%, so we subtract to get 85% of the original price

Mai opened up her account with a starting amount of $850 and is going to take out $65 per month. When would the two accounts have the same amount of money?
We set up a balance equation B(m) where m is the number of months.

Withdrawals mean we subtract from our current balance
B(m) = Starting Balance - Withdrawal Amount * m
B(m) = 850 - 65m
When the two accounts have the same amount of money, we can set both balance equations equal to each other and solve for m:

If the total yearly interest from both accounts was $2,090, find the amount invested at each rate.
Let x be the amount invested at 6%. Then 31000 - x is invested at 7%.
We have the following equation:

7% monthly is:

The average of averages is found by getting the sum of both groups of numbers and dividing by the count of numbers.
Calculate the sum of the first group of numbers S1:
Average = S1 / n1
18 = S1 / 20
S1 = 20 * 18
S1 =360
Calculate the sum of the second group of numbers S2:
Average = S2 / n2
20 = S2 / 18
S2 = 18 * 20
S2 =360
Our average of averages is found by the following:
A = (S1 + S2)/(n1 + n2)
A = (360 + 360)/(20 + 18)
A = 720/38

A marble is taken at random from the bag, the colour is noted and then it is replaced. Another marble is taken at random. What is the probability of getting exactly 1 blue?
Find the total number of marbles in the bag:
Total marbles = 5 blue + 6 red + 2 green
Total marbles = 13
The problem asks for exactly one blue in 2 draws [I]with replacement[/I]. Which means you could draw as follows:
Blue, Not Blue
Not Blue, Blue
The probability of drawing a blue is 5/13, since we replace the marbles in the bag each time.
The probability of not drawing a blue is (6 + 2)/13 = 8/13
And since each of the 2 draws are independent of each other, we multiply the probability of each draw:
Blue, Not Blue = 5/13 * 8/13 =40/169
Not Blue, Blue = 8/13 * 5/13 = 40/169
We add both probabilities since they both count under our scenario:
40/169 + 40/169 = 80/169

Three people went to lunch and bought a large meal which they all split. The total cost, including tThree people went to lunch and bought a large meal which they all split. The total cost, including tip, was $30. Each person paid $10 to the waitress and started to leave the restaurant. As they left, the waitress came running up to them with five dollars saying that she made a mistake and that the meal and tip should have cost only $25.
The waitress then gave each person one dollar, but didn't know how to split the remaining two dollars. They told her to keep the extra two dollars as an additional tip.
When the people started talking about what had just happened, they started getting confused. They had each paid $10 for the meal and received one dollar back, so they each really paid $9 for the meal for a total of $27. Add the two dollars of extra tip and the total is $29. Where did the extra one dollar go?
[B]The missing dollar is not really missing. The cost of the meal is really $27. The $25 plus the extra two dollar tip was given to the waitress -- $27
What we have is the cost ($27) plus the refund ($3) = $30.
The $30 that was originally paid is accounted for as follows:
Restaurant + regular waitress tip: $25
Three people: $3 (refund)
Waitress: $2 (extra tip)
$25 + $3 + $2 = $30[/B]

You split $1,500 between two savings accounts. Account A pays 5% annual interest and Account B paysYou split $1,500 between two savings accounts. Account A pays 5% annual interest and Account B pays 4% annual interest. After one year, you have earned a total of $69.50 in interest. How much money did you invest in each account. Explain.
Let a be the amount you invest in Account A. So this means you invested 1500 - A in account B. We have the following equation:
05a + (1500 - a).04 = 69.50
Simplifying, we get:
0.05a + 1560 - 0.04a = 69.50
0.01a + 60 = 69.50
