Answer:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Billie's age = x
Tony's age = y
Twice Billie’s age decreased by 3 is Tony’s age.
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
Tony is fourteen years older than Billie.
x = y - 14
We substitute y - 14 for x in Equation 1
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
y = 2(y - 14) - 3
y = 2y - 28 - 3
y - 2y = -28 - 3
-y = -31
y = 31 years
Solving for x
x = y - 14
x = 31 - 14
x = 17 years.
Therefore:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
To find the decimal value, we must convert 1/2 and 3/4 into decimal.
1/2=0.5
3/4=0.75
Now we just have choose a random decimal in between the decimal.
Let's choose 0.6
Now we have to convert the decimal into a fraction. So we'll multiply the decimal by100.
0.6×100=60
Then we make the 60 into a fractions. 60/100
Then we'll simply the fraction. 60/100÷10=6/10÷2=3/5
There you go. You have your answer.
Answer:
The exact interest on $5,870 at 12% is $410.9
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information provided we know that
Principal amount: $5,870
Interest rate: 12% -> 0.12
Time: 7 months (From June to December)
When you know the principal amount, the rate, and the time, the amount of interest can be calculated by using the formula:

where P is principal, r is the rate of interest and t is the time in years.
We need to convert the 7 months into 1 year.

Now we can use the above formula

Therefore the exact interest on $5,870 at 12% is $410.9
Answer:
x = - 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+ 6 = - 14 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
= - 20
Multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction
x = 5 × - 20 = - 100
(-3,4)(0,-3)
slope = (-3 - 4) / (0 - (-3) = -7/3 <=
