Answer:

divide the interest amount by the product of the principal and time

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula is I = prt where I is the interest, p is the principal, r is the rate and t is the time (in years). Rewriting this formula so that r is the subject we get r = I / pt. Therefore the answer is divide the interest amount by the product of the principal and time.

Find the solution of 3 times the square root of the quantity of x plus 6 equals negative 12, and determine if it is an extraneou
Anna35 [415]
For this case we have the following equation:
 3 \sqrt{x+6}=-12
 Rewriting we have:
 \sqrt{x+6}= \frac{-12}{3}
 \sqrt{x+6}=-4
 We raise both members of the equation to the square:
 (\sqrt{x+6})^2=(-4)^2
 Rewriting we have:
 x+6=16
 x=16-6
 x=10
 It's a extraneous solution because equality is not met by substituting x = 10 in the original equation:
 3 \sqrt{10+6}=-12
 3 \sqrt{16}=-12
 3(4)=-12
 12=-12
 Answer:
 
The solution is:
 
x=10
 It's a extraneous solution

A minor league baseball team plays 101 games in a season. If the team won 14 more than twice as many games as they lost, how man

A minor league plays 101 games,
They win 14 more than twice as many as they lost.
How many wins and loses?

Okay, simple.
First, write a simple addition equation. In this case wins = w and losses = l.
l + w = 101.

Now, we have to figure out a way to make one of the terms the same term as the other, in this case we can change the terms of w to l.
l = l
w = 2l +14 (14 more than twice the amount)

Okay. So plug in the new amount for w.
l + 2l + 14 = 101. Great! we now have a simple equation. lets solve.
put similar terms together.
3l + 14 = 101
3l = 87
l = 29
So, we have 29 loses, and
w = 2(29) + 14
72 wins!
To check,
72 + 29 = 101, correct!

Hope this helps!

What is 3k +2 ( 5k - 3) = 7
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

k= -0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

3+2(5k-3)=7              (original)

3+10k-6=7                 (distribute 2 in (5k-3))

9+10k=7                    (combine like terms 3+-6)

10k=-2                       (subtract 9 on both sides to isolate k)

k=-0.2                       (divide 10 on both sides to get you're answer/isolate k)
