15 and 10 because

five years ago he would be 10 and the brother would be 5 and 10 is double 5

M=Mavis
B=Brother Age
M=B+5

Five years ago...
M-5
B-5
Since Mavis is twice her brother age you have to multiple by 2
(M-5) = 2(B-5)

Substitute M=B+5
(B+5-5) =2B-10

B=2B-10

-B=10
10+5=15

Mavis is 15
Brother is 10

You recently purchased a new snowboard for the upcoming winter. The board, with bindings, came out to be $315.32. You were told

First the original price is reduced by 15%
assume the original price is x
100%-15%=85%..u r left with 85% of the price
thus,85/100 multiply x
the reduced price is reduced again by 5%
so,95/100 ×(85/100 x)=$315.32
find x
323/400 x =$315.32
×=$390.49

If you have a savings account, contact your bank and find out the interest rate on that account. (If you don’t have your own acc
Nina [5.8K]

Deposit $625 into a money market account with a 5% rate for 1 year would result in more money.

<h3>The interest rate of the bank</h3>

To do this, we make use of 1.50% interest rate

<h3>The exponential growth equation</h3>

Here, we have:

Initial, a= 625

Rate, r = 1.5%

The exponential growth equation is

A(t) = a * (1 + r)^t

So, we have:

A(t) = 625 * (1 + 1.5%)^t

Evaluate

A(t) = 625 * 1.015^t

Hence, the exponential growth equation is A(t) = 625 * 1.015^t

<h3>The value in 25 years</h3>

Here, t = 25.

So, we have:

A(25) = 625 * 1.015^25

Evaluate

A(25) = 906.84

Hence, the value in 25 years is $906.84

<h3>The investment with more money</h3>

<u>#Investment A</u>

a = 625

r = 1.5%

t = 5

So, we have:

A(5) = 625 * 1.015^5

Evaluate

A(5) = 673.3

<u>#Investment B</u>

a = 625

r = 5%

t = 1

So, we have:

A(1) = 625 * 1.5^1

Evaluate

A(1) = 937.5

By comparison, 937.5 is greater than 673.3

Hence, deposit $625 into a money market account with a 5% rate for 1 year would result in more money.

What goes where. JdhshshHshxjancixd
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

\boxed { \frac{7}{5}y } \to \: \boxed {y+ \frac{2}{5}y }

\boxed { \frac{3}{5}y } \to \: \boxed {y -  \frac{2}{5}y }

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify

y +  \frac{2}{5}y

We collect LCM to get;

\frac{5y + 2y}{5}  =  \frac{7y}{5}

Therefore:

\boxed { \frac{7}{5}y } \to \: \boxed {y+ \frac{2}{5}y }

Also we need to simplify:

y -  \frac{2}{5}y

We collect LCM to get;

y -  \frac{2}{5}y =  \frac{5y - 2y}{5}  =  \frac{3}{5} y

Therefore

\boxed { \frac{3}{5}y } \to \: \boxed {y -  \frac{2}{5}y }

What is the value of y in the solution to the system of equations? x + y = 1 2x – 3y = –30
Sauron [17]
X + y = 1.....multiply by -2
2x - 3y = -30
-----------------
-2x - 2y = -2 (result of multiplying by -2)
2x - 3y = -30
----------------add
-5y = -32
y = -32/-5
y = 32/5 or 6.4 <===
