Steps

Step 1 :1. Calculate the total interest earned in the first four years using the formula I = P * R * T: I=60000.0354

Step 2 :2. Calculate the distance the car will travel in 2 hours and 30 minutes using the formula Distance = Speed * Time: Distance=952.5

Step 3 :3. Calculate the relative frequency of a packet of lollies containing more than 3 red lollies: 419

Step 4 :4. Calculate the total value of Minjy's investment at the end of 2 years using the formula for simple interest and adding it to the principal amount: V=2000+(20000.062)

Step 5 :5. Calculate the BAC of a male using the given formula and values for N, H, and M: BACmale=1047.53.56.868
