After four years in college, Josie owes $21000 in student loans. The interest rate on the federal loans is 3% and the rate on the private bank loans is 4.4%. The total interest she owes for one year was $714.00.What is the amount of each loan?

$104.27 is the amount at 3% and $20895.73  is the amount at 4.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Josie owes $21000 in student loans.

Let x be principal at 3% rate of interest

Time = 1 year

Formula:

A=1.03x

Interest = Amount - Principal

Interest = 1.03x-x=0.03x

So, (21000-x) is the principal at 4.4% rate of interest

Formula:

A=21924-1.044x

Interest = 21924-1.044x-21000-x=924-2.044x

The total interest she owes for one year was $714.00

So, 0.03x+924-2.044x=714

x=104.27

So, $104.27 is the amount at 3%

The principal at 4.4% rate of interest =21000-x=21000-104.27=20895.73

Hence $104.27 is the amount at 3% and $20895.73  is the amount at 4.4%

the answer is 15% decrease

b. an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the figure of two circles having a triangle inside.

now, we know that,

"when a figure is lying inside an another figure, then the outside figure is known as circumscribed figure and the figure lying inside is referred to as the inscribed figure".

as we see that, the circles are containing the triangle completely.

thus, the circles are the circumscribed figures and the triangle is the inscribed figure.

hence, we get, 'an equilateral triangle is inscribed in a circle'.
