Five years ago you deposited a sum of money into a savings account which has earned $150 in interest. The interest rate for the account is 3% simple interest per year. How much money was originally deposited in the account?

$1000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 1000 × 0.03 × 5 = 150

I = $ 150.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 1,000.00

at a rate of 3% per year

for 5 years is $ 150.00.

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.
