Sam loans Danielle \(\displaystyle \$ 500\) for \(\displaystyle 100\) days. Danielle agrees to pay her \(\displaystyle \$ 80\) interest for the loan. How much will Danielle pay Sam in total?

This is the first example of Biehler's book.
This question doesn't require any effort on your part to answer it.
Five years ago, I attacked (and mocked) harpazo for posting an example from his favorite precalculus textbook and posting its solution as his own attempt.
This is simply conduct unbecoming of someone who just completed an engineering course.
... Yes, I have in engineering with a GPA of \(\displaystyle 98.25\%\)

Or

\(\displaystyle 3.93 \ \text{of} \ 4\)

This is not at all in keeping with your stated goal(s) when you said
... , what would you do if you have to solve \(\displaystyle 41,000\) problems by the end of this year? ...
This is not a problem that needs answering.
You don't need to post examples that's been answered by your book(s) already.
 
Sir jonah\(\displaystyle 2.0\), life is beautiful.

"Don't look at the examples' answer until you've tried your own attempt." I don't remember if this quote was said by one of my professors or something I have read in a book. So, it doesn't matter whether it was an example or a question, as long as I haven't solved it before.

Why is this very basic question (example) posted here when I can already see the answer? There are many reasons. Let me state some.

\(\displaystyle \bold{1.}\) As I stated before, I like to share what I solve with others. It is very boring to solve problems alone on paper where only the ghosts can see your answer. Solving online also raises my Latex skills, and you have already witnessed that by your own eyes.
\(\displaystyle \bold{2.}\) By combining Examples, Questions, and Problems together as one thing makes it easier to hit the target \(\displaystyle 41,000\) in time.
\(\displaystyle \bold{3.}\) As I stated before, my problems will vary from the kindergarten's level to the professor's level. So, don't be surprised (or shocked) if one day you see this question \(\displaystyle 9.099 + 1.01 = \ ?\) as I have never solved it before.
\(\displaystyle \bold{4.}\) Although, this was not one of the reasons at the beginning of my journey, I am making it a reason now. It is a very beautiful feeling when a member, especially an Elite get annoyed by my rainy problems. It has a better effect than \(\displaystyle 1000\) doses of methamphetamine. If you have already watched the series "Breaking Bad", you would understand what I'm talking about.

I think that you like to mention @harpazo a lot. If you think I am that racist person, you are so wrong Sir jonah\(\displaystyle 2.0\). Although, I did not hate the questions and problems he posted, he had mental problems. His biased or extremist ideas are very bad, especially about Religion and Politics.

It seems that @mario99 did a pretty good job in his engineering course. He suddenly disappeared and I got lost. I hope that he's Okay.

We are in this forum to learn new things, so let's learn😍and let others learn from what we have learnt. It's a beautiful life, isn't it?

This is more of a "language" problem - than an arithmetic problem. What does the statement "Danielle pay Sam in total" mean to you in this case? More "specifically" what does total mean for you?

Is it? It seems beautiful only when I'm already intoxicated these days.

I have indeed witnessed thy Latex renderings. Are you really a Latex virtuoso or someone who uses Latex software like MathType the way I used to.

No, I didn't think that at all. In fact, I pointed out to Dan (Topsquark) how unlikely that is.
I mentioned harpazo on this thread because I felt like attacking and mocking you for posting an example that was meant to illustrate by the author of your book. I felt that you were about to do what harpazo did back then; that is to commit plagiarism.
It's a beautiful life, isn't it?
I repeat myself, is it really? I see only pain and suffering everywhere I look. I guess you could say that life is beautiful that way. Life is pain. Anyone who says differently is selling something.

Don't rush things professor khan. Everything will be explained and answered when the time is right.

I will leave my Latex secrets for another day.

@harpazo is a legend. I wish he comes back.

The most beautiful thing about life is its pain. With pain, this forum became more entertaining.

I am sure that Sam is upset now because we ignored her revenue and focused on something else.

That is what happens -' no answer ' - to the original query when a 'query - when a query is posted without showing any work....

From experience, Sam should know that we would never leave her alone.

Back to Business.

After \(\displaystyle 100\) days, Danielle will pay back Sam the \(\displaystyle \$ 500\) plus an \(\displaystyle \$ 80\).

Therefore, in total, Danielle will pay \(\displaystyle 500 + 80 = \$ 580\).

Now, I will compare my answer with the Example's answer🫣

It's correct😍I can't believe I got the correct answer from the first try!

💪😭

There's very little to learn from from this thread.
Pretty sure nobody is amused by it.

This is just taking absurdity to a whole new level Mario.
Please, try to resist the temptation to sink even deeper.
