Hello there! Thank you for asking your question here at Brainly! I will be assisting you with answering this question today, and will be teaching you how to handle it on your own in the future.

First, let's take a look at our problem.
"Twice a number and 5 more is 100."
Based on this context, we are looking for a specific number to plug in.

To solve for this, I will rewrite the problem. As I do so, I will be writing (in parenthesis) the translation of an equation.

Twice a number (2x) and 5 more (+5) is 100 (=100).

Let's rewrite everything that's in parenthesis.
2x + 5 = 100

This is our equation.
To solve for this, we will need to do some basic algebra. Of course, I will teach you how to handle this on your own in future scenarios.

2x + 5 = 100
To solve for x, we need  to isolate 2x, and then divide both sides by 2.

2x + 5 = 100
Subtract 5 from both sides to isolate 2x.
5 - 5 = 0
100 - 5 = 95

We now have the following equation:
2x = 95
Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x.

2x / 2 = x
95 / 2 = 47.5

x = 47.5

47.5 is your number.

I hope this helps!

What is the area of the figure?<br><br><br><br> 40 ft2<br> 84 ft2<br> 96 ft2<br> can't be determined
maxonik [38]
<span>80 ft^2 Looking at the figure, you can easily determine that it's made of two separate figures, a rectangle that's 2 feet by 16 feet, and a triangle that has sides of 16 feet, 10 feet, and 10 feet. The triangle can then be divided into two right triangles with a hypotenuse of 10 feet and one leg of 8 feet, so you can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the other leg (which is also the height of the large triangle mentioned above). That value is sqrt(10^2 - 8^2) = sqrt(100 - 64) = sqrt(36) = 6. So we now know that the large 16,10,10 triangle has a base of 16 and a height of 6. So let's calculate the area of the entire figure. A = 2*16 + 16*6/2 A = 32 + 16*3 A = 32 + 48 A = 80 So the area of the entire figure is 80 square feet.</span>

Amir pits £3035 into a bank account. The account pays 4% compound interest each year. Work out how much money amir will have in
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

\£3840.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P denotes principal amount, T denotes time period and R denotes rate of interest.

Amount = P(1+\frac{R}{100})^T

Amir pits £3035 into a bank account. The account pays 4% compound interest each year.

Put P=\£3035,\,R=4\%,\,T=6

Amount = 3035(1+\frac{4}{100})^6=3035(\frac{104}{100})^6=\£3840.2

Therefore, Amir will have \£3840.2 in the account after 6 years.
