Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

45 + 5/6x = 50.....subtract 45 from both sides

5/6x = 50 - 45

5/6x = 5....now multiply both sides by 6/5 to get rid of the 5/6 on the left

(6/5)(5/6)x = 5(6/5)

x = 30/5 which reduces to 6 <==

45 + 5/6x = 50...subtract 45 from both sides

5/6x = 50 - 45

5/6x = 5.....divide both sides by 5/6 to get rid of the 5/6 on the left

x = 5 / (5/6)

x = 5 * 6/5

x = 30/5 which reduces to 6 <===

either way the answer is the same...x = 6...just do what ur most comfortable with

the yearly increase of x% assumes is compounding yearly, so let's use that.

$~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill &\£95000\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill &\£80000\\ r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{yearly, thus once} \end{array}\dotfill &1\\ t=years\dotfill &5 \end{cases}$

$95000=80000\left(1+\frac{~~ \frac{r}{100}~~}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 5}\implies \cfrac{95000}{80000}=\left( 1+\cfrac{r}{100} \right)^5 \\\\\\ \cfrac{19}{16}=\left( 1+\cfrac{r}{100} \right)^5\implies \sqrt[5]{\cfrac{19}{16}}=1+\cfrac{r}{100}\implies \sqrt[5]{\cfrac{19}{16}}=\cfrac{100+r}{100} \\\\\\ 100\sqrt[5]{\cfrac{19}{16}}=100+r\implies 100\sqrt[5]{\cfrac{19}{16}}-100=r\implies 3.5\approx r$
