Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = last month
y = this month
y = 2x + 7
y = 43
43 = 2x + 7
43 - 7 = 2x
36 = 2x
36/2 = x
18 = x <== he sold 18 gym memberships last month
This is one of those questions where, if you know the formula, it's easy,
and of you don't know the formula, there's no way.
In fact, the whole purpose of the question is to help you remember the formula.
The volume of a cylinder is
(pi) x (the radius)² x (the height).
For this particular cylinder, that's
(pi) x (3)² x (10) =
(pi) x (9) x (10) = 90 pi cubic units.
If you use (3.14) for (pi), then that's <em>282.6 cubic units</em>.
It means your solving for x
11,990
9% of 5500 is 495
(495+5500) [one year] x 2 [two years] = $11,990
At the end of 2 years, Aldo will owe $11,990.
