Answer:

\boxed{\sf{b=2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the b from one side of the equation.

<u>First, subtract by 5 from both sides.</u>

\sf{5+2b-5=9-5}

<u>Solve.</u>

<u />

<u>Subtract.</u>

9-5=4

2b=4

<u>Divide by 2 from both sides.</u>

2b/2=4/2

<u>Solve.</u>

<u />

<u>Divide the numbers from left to right.</u>

4/2=2

\Longrightarrow \boxed{\sf{b=2}}

Therefore, the correct answer is b=2.

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

  The first two pieces are 5' 5" long; the last piece is 5' 2" long.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the length of one of the longer pieces, then the shorter one (in inches) is x-3. The total length of the three pieces is ...

  x + x + (x-3) = 192

  3x = 195 . . . . . . . . . add 3

  x = 65 . . . . . . . . . . inches

  65 inches = 5 ft 5 inches

The first two pieces are each 5' 5" long; the remaining piece is 5' 2" long.

4) -4y= -x + 4<br> 6) y + 3x = 3
wel

Answer:

x=16/13

y= -9/13

Step-by-step explanation:

A:         -4y=-x+4

B:          y+3x=3

4B:       4y+12x=12

A+4B:   12x= -x+16

----->    13x=16

               x=16/13

-4y= -16/13+4

4y=16/13-4

y=4/13-1= -9/13

A person invests 4000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 5.5% interest compounded annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how lo
Mademuasel [1]

if the person leaves the money in the bank, the time it will take for it to reach the given final amount is 6.3 years.

<h3>What is an interest in banking?</h3>

Interest is simply the amount of money a lender or financial institution receives for lending out money or pays for receiving money.

The formular for calculating compound interest is expressed as;

A = P(1 + r/n)^(n*t)

Where A is final amount, P is initial principal balance, r is interest rate, n is  number of times interest applied per time period and t is number of time periods elapsed.

Given the data in the question;

  • Initial principal balance P = $4000
  • Interest rate r = 5.5% anuually = 5.5/100 = 0.055
  • Final amount A = $5600
  • Time t = ?

We substitute our given values into the expression above.

A = P(1 + r/n)^(n*t)

5600 = 4000(1 + 0.055/1)^(1*t)

5600 = 4000( 1.055 )^t

( 1.055 )^t = 5600 / 4000

( 1.055 )^t  = 1.4

We take log of each sides

0.02325t = 0.1461

t = 0.1461 / 0.02325

t = 6.3

Therefore, if the person leaves the money in the bank, the time it will take for it to reach the given final amount is 6.3 years.
