<u>ANSWER: </u>
Rate per annum at which CI will amount from RS 2000 to RS 2315.35 in 3 years is 5%
<u>SOLUTION: </u>
Given,
P = RS 2000
C.I = RS 2315.35
T = 3 years
We need to find the rate per annum. i.e. R = ?
We know that,
When interest is compound Annually:
Where p = principal amount
r = rate of interest
n = number of years
R = 5%
Hence, rate per annum is 5 percent.
Given:
Angelica reads 15 pages of a book each day.
In 10 days, she reads 200 pages.
Assume the relationship is linear.
To find:
The rate of change and initial value.
Solution:
The slope intercept form of a linear function is:
...(i)
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Angelica reads 15 pages of a book each day. So, the rate of change is 15 pages per day and .
In 10 days, she reads 200 pages. It means the linear relation passes through the point (10,200).
Putting in (i), we get
So, the y-intercept is 50. It means the initial number of pages angelica already read is 50.
Therefore, the rate of change is 15, it means Angelica reads 15 pages per day. The y-intercept is 50, it means the initial number of pages angelica already read is 50.
