To answer we let x be the amount of money that Sam invested during the first year.
Below are the expressions translated from the given word forms for the amount invested.
Sam:
2nd year : amount = 5x/2 - 2000
3rd year : amount = x/5 + 1000
The sum of money invested by Sam is:
x + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000)
Similarly, we derive the expressions that we use for the amount that Sally invested.
Sally
1st year : amount = 3x/2 - 1000
2nd year : amount = 2x - 1500
3rd year : amount = x/4 + 1400
The total amount that Sally invested is,
total = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)
Equating the two equations:
(x) + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000) = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)
Solving for x,
x = 2000
For Sally's investment in the third year:
amount = x/4 + 1400 = (2000/4 + 1400) = 1900
ANSWERS:
Sam's first year = $2000
Sally's third year = $1900
Answer:
12 - 4i
Step-by-step explanation:
-2i ( 2+6i)
Distribute
-2i * 2 + -2i *6i
-4i - 12 i^2
We know that i^2 = -1 so replace it
-4i - 12(-1)
-4i + 12
Then put in the order a+bi where the real number comes first and the imaginary number comes last
12 - 4i

Answer:
(d) -√((2+√2)/(2-√2))
Step-by-step explanation:
5π/8 is a 2nd-quadrant angle whose reference angle is greater than π/4. This means the tangent is negative with a magnitude greater than 1. The only reasonable choice is ...

This simplifies to -(1+√2). Your calculator can verify the choice for you.
Answer:
<h2> D=C/4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that elevation of the cities are
A=72 feet
C=24 feet
D=1/4 of C
The expression for the elevation of city D is
D=C/4
substituting C=24 in the expression we have
D=24/4
D=6
The answer is positive because the elevation is above sea level
