Answer: subtraction
Reasoning: You need to subtract 3 from both sides first.
The answer is 12>x>-7
Step-by-step explanation:
it's first divided into 2 parts
1 . 15 > 2x - 9
2. 2x - 9 > -23
Then solve them individually.
let's do it,
<u>First half</u>
15 > 2x - 9
15+9 > 2x
24 > 2x
24/2 > x
12>x
<u>Second half</u>
2x-9>-23
2x>-23+9
2x>-14
x>-14/2
x>-7
<u>Joining of the two halves</u>
We have :
12>x>-7
754,863 rounded to the nearest ten thousands is 750,000
Answer:
A) The annual multiplier was 1.0339; the annual increase was 0.0339 of the value.
B) 3.39% per year
C) $182,000
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Let's let t represent years since 1987. Then we can fill in the numbers and solve for r.
165000 = 100000(1 +r)^15
1.65^(1/15) = 1 +r . . . . . divide by 100,000; take the 15th root
1.03394855265 -1 = r ≈ 0.0339
The value was multiplied by about 1.0339 each year.
__
B) The value increased by about 3.39% per year.
__
C) S = $100,000(1.03394855265)^18 ≈ $182,000
