Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is :

5x-3 = 12

We have to find the value of x.

adding 3 to both sides of above equation,we get

5x-3+3 = 12+3

adding like terms,we get

5x+0 = 15

5x = 15

multiplying by 1/5 to both sides of above equation,we get

1/5(5x) =1/5(15)

x = 3 which is the answer.

Molly Invests $8,600 into her son's college fund, which earns 3% annual interest

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

n= 13.8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to determine the daily interest rate:

Daily interest rate= 0.03 / 365

Daily interest rate= 0.000082

Now, using the following formula we can determine the number of days and years:

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)

n= ln(13,000 / 8,600) / ln(1.000082)

n= 5,039 days

In years:

n= 5,039/365

n= 13.8 years
