Ms. Adams received a bonus check for $12,000. She decided to divide the money among three different investments. With some of the money, she purchased a municipal bond paying 5.8% simple interest. She invested twice the amount she paid for the municipal bond in a certificate of deposit paying 4.9% simple interest. Ms. Adams placed the balance of the money in a money market account paying 3.7% simple interest. If Ms. Adams’ total interest for one year was $534, how much was placed in each account?
|
A. municipal bond: $ 1500 certificate of deposit: $ 3000 money market: $ 7500 |

In the town of Milton Lake, the percentage of women who smoke is increasing while the percentage of men who smoke is decreasing. Let x represent the number of years since 1990 and y represent the percentage of women in Milton Lake who smoke. The graph of y against x includes the data points (0, 15.9) and ( 13, 19.67). Let x represent the number of years since 1990 and y represent the percentage of men in Milton Lake who smoke. The graph of y against x includes the data points (0, 29.7) and ( 15, 26.85). Determine when the percentage of women who smoke will be the same as the percentage of men who smoke. Round to the nearest year. What percentage of women and what percentage of men (to the nearest whole percent) will smoke at that time? [Hint: first find the slope-intercept equation of the line that models the percentage, y, of women who smoke x years after 1990 and the slope-intercept equation of the line that models the percentage, y, of men who smoke x years after 1990]
