Amelia is ordering a balloon bouquet. She can choose any combination of 10-inch balloons and 8-inch balloons for her bouquet, and she does not want to spend more than $30. If the 10-inch balloons cost $4 each dollars and the 8-inch balloons cost $2 each, which inequality represents all possible combinations of x 10-inch balloons and y 8-inch balloons?

4x + 2y <= 30

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.
