x+(x+2)+(x+4)=48

3x+6=48

Minus 6 to both sides

3x=42

Divide 3 to both sides

x=14

Get the next two integers

x,x+2,x+4 or 14,16,18 = 48 is you Answer

Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

and when multiply by negative, flip sign

8+h>2+3h
minus h both sides
8+h-h>2+3h-h
8+0>2+2h
8>2+2h
minus 2 both sides
8-2>2-2+2h
6>0+2h
6>2h
divide by 2 both sides
6/2>2h/2
3>1h
3>h

Paul is saving for a down payment to buy a house. The account earns 13% interest compound quarterly, and he wants to have $15,00

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The principal must be = $8991.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for compound interest is:

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A is the amount after 't' years.

P is the principal amount

n is the number of times interest is compounded each year.

r is the rate of interest.

Here, we are given that:

Amount, A = $15000

Rate of interest = 13 % compounded quarterly i.e. 4 times every year

Number of times, interest is compounded each year, n = 4

Time, t = 4 years.

To find, Principal P = ?

Putting all the given values in the formula to find P.

$15000 = P(1 + \frac{13}{400})^{4\times 4}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1 + 0.0325)^{16}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1.0325)^{16} \\\Rightarrow 15000 = P \times 1.66817253\\\Rightarrow P = \dfrac{15000}{1.66817253}\\\Rightarrow P \approx \$8991.88$

So, the principal must be = $8991.88

Which equation is equivalent to

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

C) 29x=5

reason:

first, distribute the parentheses
this will make your equation 8-20x=6-3+9x
simplify to get 8-20x=3+9x
add 20x to both sides to get 8=3+29x
subtract 3 from both sides to get 5=29x

An observer took a time-exposure photograph of polaris and five nearby stars. how many hours were required to show their star pa

olga55 [171]

Photographing stars requires you to keep your exposure open for a long time. Taking pictures of star trails would take about 30 minutes to three hours. If you multiply that for the 6 stars stated above in the problem then you would be needing that much time if the stars were close and approximately 3 to 18 hours capture their star trails if they were far apart from each other.
