Answer:
x = 12
y = 22
Total amount = $2596
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find the value of each deposit until the 10th in relation to x and y:
1st: x
2nd: y
3rd: x + y
4th: x + 2y
5th: 2x + 3y
6th: 3x + 5y
7th: 5x + 8y
8th: 8x + 13y
9th: 13x + 21y
10th: 21x + 34y
Now, we can write a system with two equations and two variables:
2x + 3y = 90
21x + 34y = 1000
From the first equation: x = (90 - 3y)/2
Using this value of x in the second equation, we have:
21*(90 - 3y)/2 + 34y = 1000
945 - 31.5y + 34y = 1000
2.5y = 55
y = 22
Now we can find x:
x = (90 - 3*22)/2 = 12
Now, summing all the deposits, we have a total of 55x + 88y, which is equal to 55*12 + 88*22 = $2596
Answer:
37.5
Step-by-step explanation:
so x% of 40 is 15
the equation for that is
x/100 * 40 = 15
40x/100 = 15
multiply 100 on both sides
40x = 1500
divide 40 on both sides
37.5
37.5% of 40 is 15
I think it is c I really don't understand
The answer is 17/22 17/20 because of the fractions
