I'm thinking maybe x is supposed to represent the number of tasks completed because it states Shelly earned 90 points on each task.  Then when put together it may look like this, let's say there are 4 tasks= Ex.90 times the 4 tasks minus 20 points which would total the points Terrence's has earned. So i believe x is the total tasks. Hope I didn't make it confusing...

X is the number of tasks

It says Shelly earned 90 points on each task. So the equation shows Shelly getting 90 points times the number of tasks (x) that she did. Then they simply subtract 20 from the total to get Terrence's total amount of points.

Harry church borrowed 17,500.00 at 6.5% exact interest. He had to pay back a maturity value of 17,873.97 to pay off the loan. Wh
kirill [66]

Answer:the term of the loan is approximately 4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The term of the loan means the period for which the loan was given.

We would apply the formula for simple interest which is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

From the information given

P = 17500

R = 6.5%

I = total amount paid - principal

I = 17,873.97 - 17,500.00 = 373.97

Therefore

373.97 = (17500 × 6.5 × T)/100

373.97 = 1137.5T

T = 373.97/1137.5

T = 0.32 years

Converting to months, it becomes

0.32 × 12 = 3.84

Approximately 4 months.

How many year apart is 384 BC from 1952 AD
julsineya [31]
BC and BCE are Before Common Era
So what you want to do is add 1952 and 384
1952 + 384 = 2336
So the amount of years between 384 BC and 1952 AD is about 2,336 years

A line passes through the point (3,2) and (6,2) a write an equation for the line in point-slope form rewrite the equation in sta
NeTakaya
(3, –2) and (6, 2)First, we must establish slope...m=(y-y1)/(x-x1)m=(-2-2)/(3-6)m=-4/-3m=4/3Point slope formula is...y-y1=m(x-x1)Let's select either coordinate.  I randomly select the first (3, –2)...y--2=4/3(x-3)Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number...y+2=4/3(x-3)This corresponds to the first answer.Standard form...Ax+By=Cy+2=(4/3)x-4y=(4/3)x-6-(4/3)x+y=-6Multiply both sides by 3...-4x+3y=-18This also corresponds to the first answer. How about the second coordinate, (6, 2)...y-y1=m(x-x1)y-2=(4/3)(x-6)Let's convert it into standard form..y-2=(4/3)x-8y=(4/3)x-6-(4/3)x+y=-6Multiply both sides by 3...-4x+3y=-18
