Complete the following table:

\begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
Amount invested (in Rands) & 100 & 200 & 300 & 400 & 500 \\
\hline
Interest earned (in Rands) & 10 & 20 & 30 & 40 & 50 \\
\hline
Interest rate [tex]=( \frac{\text{Interest}}{\text{Amount}} ) \times 100[/tex] & 10\% & 10\% & 10\% & 10\% & 10\% \\
\hline
\end{tabular}



Answer :

Sure, let's fill in the table step-by-step with detailed explanations.

1. Calculate the interest rate for each investment:

For each amount invested, we calculate the interest rate using the formula:
[tex]\[ \text{Interest rate} = \left(\frac{\text{Interest}}{\text{Amount}}\right) \times 100 \][/tex]

2. Step-by-step calculations:

a. For an amount invested of 100 Rands:
[tex]\[ \text{Interest rate} = \left(\frac{10}{100}\right) \times 100 = 10\% \][/tex]

b. For an amount invested of 200 Rands:
[tex]\[ \text{Interest rate} = \left(\frac{20}{200}\right) \times 100 = 10\% \][/tex]

c. For an amount invested of 300 Rands:
[tex]\[ \text{Interest rate} = \left(\frac{30}{300}\right) \times 100 = 10\% \][/tex]

d. For an amount invested of 400 Rands:
[tex]\[ \text{Interest rate} = \left(\frac{41}{400}\right) \times 100 = 10.25\% \][/tex]

e. For an amount invested of 500 Rands:
[tex]\[ \text{Interest rate} = \left(\frac{50}{500}\right) \times 100 = 10\% \][/tex]

3. Fill in the table:

[tex]\[ \begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text{Amount invested (in Rands)} & 100 & 200 & 300 & 400 & 500 \\ \hline \text{Interest earned (in Rands)} & 10 & 20 & 30 & 41 & 50 \\ \hline \text{Interest rate} \left(= \left(\frac{\text{Interest}}{\text{Amount}}\right) \times 100\right) & 10\% & 10\% & 10\% & 10.25\% & 10\% \\ \hline \end{array} \][/tex]

This completes the table by calculating the interest rate for each amount invested.
