Answer:

t = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Instead of randomly guessing values of "t" that will satisfy the equation, you can easily find the correct value by solving the equation in terms of "t". In other words, you can set the equation equal to "t" to find the final answer.

(-2/3)t - 2 = -3 <----- Original equation

(-2/3)t = -1 <----- Add 2 to both sides

t = 3/2 <----- Divide both sides by -2/3

You can check this value by plugging it into "t" and determining whether both sides of the equations will be equal.

(-2/3)t - 2 = -3 <----- Original equation

(-2/3)(3/2) - 2 = -3 <----- Plug 3/2 into "t"

-6/6 - 2 = -3 <----- Multiply -2/3 and 3/2

-1 - 2 = -3 <----- Simplify -6/6

-3 = -3 <----- Subtract

Josh earns $2700 each summer and puts the money in a savings account with a 4.5% simple interest rate. If he deposits the same a

iragen [17]

Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount Josh earn each summer = $2700

Rate of simple interest = 4.5%

According to question, he deposits the same amount each year.

First summer, he deposited = $2700

In Second summer, he deposited = $2700×2= $5400

In Third summer, he deposited = $2700 × 3=$8100

At the end of his third summer, his money becomes,

$\text{Simple Interest}=\frac{P\times R\times T}{100}\\\\\text{Simple Interest}=\frac{8100\times 4.5\times 1}{100}\\\\\text{Simple Interest}=\$364.5$

As we know the formula for "Amount" that it becomes at the end of his third summer:

$Amount=P+S.I\\\\Amount=\$8100+\$364.5\\\\Amount=\$8464.5$

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.

Equation A simplifies to 0 = 0. It is always true.

Equation B simplifies to 1 = -1 for a ≠ 0. It is never true.

Equation C simplifies to 2a = 0. It is true only for a = 0.

Equation D simplifies to 2a = 0. It is only true for a = 0.

The equation that is true for all values of "a" is ...
