One year ago, Lindsey deposited $250 into a savings account. Her balance is now $253. Two years ago, Jenn
deposited $250 into a savings account. Her balance is
now $257.50. Which account has the greater simple
interest rate? Explain.

Jenn's account

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

LINDSAY'S ACCOUNT :

Principal = amount deposited = $250

Final Amount after 1 year = $253

Period (t) = 1 year

JENN'S ACCOUNT :

Principal = amount deposited = $250

Final Amount after 2 years = $257.50

Period (t) = 2 year

Using the relation :

A = P(1 + rt)

A = final amount ; r = interest rate ; t = time

Lindsay :

253 = 250(1 + r(1))

253 = 250 + 250r

253 - 250 = 250r

3 = 250r

r = 3/250

r = 0.012 ; (0.012 * 100) = 1.2%

Jenn:

257.50 = 250(1 + r(2))

257.50 = 250 + 500r

257.50 - 250 = 500r

7.50 = 500r

r = 7.50/500

r = 0.015 ; (0.015 * 100) = 1.5%

Hence, JENN'S deposit has the greater interest rate. (1.5 > 1.2)%

Sample response:Lindsay’s interest is $3 for one year. Using the formula for interest, I = prt, Lindsey’s money is earning at a rate of 1.2%. Jenn has earned $3.75 for one year. Her money is earning at a rate of 1.5%, which is a higher interest rate.

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity".   that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both.   the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.   this has important considerations for the human body's comfort.   when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.   if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature.   evaporation is a cooling process.   when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature.   when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases.   in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.   the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases.   the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions.   there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
