Answer:

$\boxed{\sf x=2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf 2x+5=9$

Subtract 5 from both sides.

$\sf 2x+5-5=9-5$

$\sf 2x=4$

Divide both sides by 2.

$\sf \cfrac{2x}{2}=\cfrac{4}{2}$

$\sf x=2$

How do you factor 5x^2 = 10x

denis-greek [22]

$5x^2 = 10x$

$5x^2-10x=10x-10x$

$5x^2-10x=0$

Use quadratic formula

$\quad x_{1,\:2}=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=5,\:b=-10,\:c=0:\quad x_{1,\:2}=\dfrac{-\left(-10\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-10\right)^2-4\cdot \:5\cdot \:0}}{2\cdot \:5}$

$x=\dfrac{-\left(-10\right)+\sqrt{\left(-10\right)^2-4\cdot \:5\cdot \:0}}{2\cdot \:5}:\quad 2$

$x=\dfrac{-\left(-10\right)-\sqrt{\left(-10\right)^2-4\cdot \:5\cdot \:0}}{2\cdot \:5}:\quad 0$

$x=2,\:x=0$

An actor invests some money at 9% simple interest, and $24,000 more than three times the amount at 10% simple interest. The

Andrew [12]

Answer:

The amount invested at 9% is $93000

The amount invested at 10% is $303000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested at 9% interest rate be x

And the amount invested at 10% rate be y

Simple Interest from x in a year = 0.09x

Simple Interest from y in a year = 0.1y

But y = 24000 + 3x

And the sun of the interests, 0.09x + 0.1y = 38670

Now we have a simultaneous eqn

y = 24000 + 3x (eqn 1)

0.09x + 0.1y = 38670 (eqn)

Substitute y into eqn 2

0.09x + 0.1(24000 + 3x) = 38670

0.09x + 2400 + 0.3x = 38670

0.39x = 38670 - 2400

x = 36270/0.39 = $93000

y = 24000 + 3x = 24000 + 3 × 93000 = $303000
