C. 5/6b = 140
(*assuming b = total number of cards)
If the piles have an equal number of cards and 5 out of the 6 piles were put in the collection, 5/6 of the cards were put into the collection. The total number of cards put in the collection is 140, so 5/6b=140.
Solution :

Conclusion - only third choice has negative equivalent value
Use compound interest formula F=P(1+i)^n twice, one for each deposit and sum the two results.
For the P=$40,000 deposit,
i=10%/2=5% (semi-annual)
number of periods (6 months), n = 6*2 = 12
Future value (at end of year 6),
F = P(1+i)^n = 40,000(1+0.05)^12 = $71834.253
For the P=20000, deposited at the START of the fourth year, which is the same as the end of the third year.
i=5% (semi-annual
n=2*(6-3), n = 6
Future value (at end of year 6)
F=P(1+i)^n = 20000(1+0.05)^6 = 26801.913
Total amount after 6 years
= 71834.253 + 26801.913
=98636.17 (to the nearest cent.)
The price was reduced by 34%, so she paid 100-34 = 66% of the original price.
16,000 x 0.66 = 10,560
She paid $10,560
Answer: $44.99
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P = equal prices games
The equation would be
249.99+2p=339.97
Subtract 249.99 from each side
2p=339.97
Divide by two and you got the answer.
