Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

6(x+1)-5x=8+2(x-1)

solve for x

6x+6-5x=8+2x-2

Group terms that contain the same variable and move the constants to the other side

6x-5x-2x=8-2-6

-x=8-8

x=0

6(x + 1) - 5x = 8 + 2(x - 1)
6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x - 2
x + 6 = 6 + 2x
0 = x
So, x = 0

Blanche bought a 5-year cd for $7100 with an apr of 2.8%, compounded quarterly, but she wants to take all her money out 9 months
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The money she will end up earning in interest on the cd = $11,352.90

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for getting the accumulated amount(compounded) is;

A =P(1+\frac{r}{n})^n*t

Where

A = Accumulated amount  

P = principle (deposit)

r = interest rate and

n = no of times interest applied per time period.  

The interest is compounded quarterly so in one year it will be 4 times

In 5 years

n = (5×4)-3 = 17  (as she will withdraw 3 month before the completion of five years)

A = 7100(1+\frac{2.8}{100} )^17

  = 7100( 1 + 0.028)^17

  =  7100(1.028)^17  

   = 7100 * 1.599

  = 11,352.90

Therefore the money she will end up earning in interest on the cd = $11,352.90

A flying carpet flies 2.4 miles with the wind in the same amount of time it flies 1.4 miles against the wind. The wind speed is
Ainat [17]

Answer:

15.2~mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time flown by the flying carpet be t. Then, we have that (2.4)/t=(1.4)/t+2*4.

We multiply both sides of the equation by t to get 2.4=1.4+8t.

We subtract 1.4 from both sides to get 1=8t.

We divide both sides of the equation by t=1/8.

We know that the speed of the flying carpet in still wind is the average of the rates of the speed of the flying carpet with the wind and against the wind.

The speed with wind is (2.4)/(1/8)=19.2mph.

The speed against wind is (1.4)/(1/8)=11.2mph.

The speed in still wind is (19.2+11.2)/2=(30.4)/2=15.2.

Therefore, the answer is \boxed{15.2~mph} and we're done!
