Answer:

3 squares

Step-by-step explanation:

The question given is not complete, the diagram of the shape is supposed to be attached. But I would provide you with a diagram and show you how to solve this type of problem.

The diagram of the shape is attached below. Firstly, you have to count the number of squares in the shape. As it can been seen from the diagram, there are a total 18 squares (i.e 6 squares on each row × 3 squares on each column).

Secondly you have to find 1/6 of the total number of the squares in the shape. 1/6 of the total number of the square in the shape = 1/6 × 18 = 3 squares

Therefore 3 squares would have to be shaded so that 1/6 of the shape is shaded

Answer:

The percentage rate is 4.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given formula for simple interest is I=prt where I=simple interest, p=principle, r = percentage rate and t=time. In the problem, we are told that after six years (t=6), $7000 (p=7000) earns $1890 (I=1890). We can then substitute in the values for three of our variable to get the following: 1890 = (7000)(6)r. Multiplying 7000x6 = 42000 giving us 1890 = 42000r. Using inverse operations, we divide both sides of the equation by 42000 to get 0.045 = r. Since r = percentage rate, we need to multiply our decimal by 100 to find the percentage. 0.045 x 100 = 4.5%.
