Jamie has $114.56 in her savings and count and her bank just raised the interest paid on her savings account by 1/2%. if her old rate is .5%, what was her new rate as a decimal?

0.5025%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on increase and decrease

The old interest rate= .5%⇒0.5%

percentage increase= 1/2%= 0.5%

New rate= it requires you to increase 0.5 by 0.5%

New rate is ⇒100%+ 0.5%=100.5%

New rate⇒(100.5/100)×0.5 =0.5025

New rate as a decimal is 0.5025%

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.

answer: the first graph
