Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:

Add
on both sides and subtract
on both sides to leave x's on the left side and independent values on the right.


Solve the fractions.





Convert the mixed fraction
to an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying 1 times 35 and adding 2.

Now use the reciprocal (inverse fraction) and multiply on both sides to isolate x.




Answer Interest rate = 12.3%
The compound interest formula is given by:
Where
A = Future amount
P = Present amount (Principal amount)
r = Interest rate in decimal form
n = No. of times compounded per year
t = time in years.
We can say that if:
Present amount = P
Future amount = 3P
r = 12.3/100 = 0.123
n = 1
t = ?
Substitute the values in the formula of compound interest:
Taking log on both sides.
Round off to nearest option
t ≅ 9 years
32 29/30 its 32 and 5/30+24/30
