Answer: 7.58 years
Step-by-step explanation:
When it comes to finding out how long it will take for an investment to double, one can use the Rule of 72.
The Rule of 72 estimates the amount of time it will take to double an investment when you divide 72 by the interest rate:
= 72 / r
= 72 / 9.5
= 7.58 years
Answer:
1.) subtract = 1 1/3 - 3 1/2 = answer
2.) subtract = 6 3/4 - 1 1/2 = answer
3.) add = 3 1/4 + 2 1/8= answer
4.) subtract = 4 3/4 - 2 1/6 = answer
Step-by-step explanation:
5.) 3 lawns = 6 3/4 hrs
1st lawn 2 1/2 hrs
2nd lawn 1 3/4 hrs
add 2 1/2 + 1 3/4 = total
then 6 3/4 hrs - total = the amount it takes to mow the 3rd lawn
im sure u know how to add and subtract fractions is u r in middle school :)
Answer:
109.5% of the bill
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to pay 100% of your bill (or else you wouldn't have paid your bill in full) and as you said, "plus a 9.5% tax". 100+9.5=109.5%
The value of <em>d</em> is 7.5.
The key to solving equations is doing the inverse, or opposite, function/process.
For example, you subtract when d + 1 = 2:
d + 1 = 2
(d + 1) -1 = (2) - 1
d = 1
In the same way, you add values when you have a negative:
5.5 = -2 + d = d - 2
5.5 = d - 2
(5.5) + 2 = (d - 2) + 2
7.5 = d
Now if instead of adding 2, you subtract 2, the problem becomes:
5.5 = d - 2
(5.5) - 2 = (d - 2) - 2
3.5 = d - 4
This doesn't solve your problem, it just makes the value needed to be canceled out larger.
Thus d = 7.5 and you will add because the value is negative.
