Explanation:

given data

investment = $6000

receive = $6180

borrow = $6000

to find out

maximum interest rate bank needs to offer on the loan

solution

we consider here maximum interest rate bank needs to offer is = r

so value of investment will be express here as

value of investment = amount to be borrowed × ( 1 + r )    1

put here value we get rate r

6180 = 6000 × ( 1 + r )

solve it we get

rate = 0.03

maximum interest rate = 3%

so correct option is A) 3%

a recipe serves 8 people, and calls for 5 lbs of apples and 2 cups of flour. you want to prepare it for 24 people. divide 24 by 8 to get 3, and then multiply your ingredients by 3.

so for 24 people, you'll need 15 lbs of apples, and 6 cups of flour.
