Justify your answer

i. The amount made in interest is $65,000.

ii. Yes, because her expenses is lesser that her interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

i. The woman puts $1,000,000 in a savings account with an interest rate of 6%.

The amount she would make in interest = × 1,000,000

                                                                   = 65,000

The amount made in interest is $65,000.

ii. The total of her expenses last year is $47,0000 which is lesser than the amount made in inerest.

After her total expenses, should would have a remainder of;

                                   = $65,000 - $47,0000

                                  = $18,000

Therefore, she would be able to live off the interest.
