Find ST if S is between R and T, SR = 2x + 7, ST = x - 6, and RT = 100

1 answer:

7 0

Since SR+ST adds up to RT, we have 2x+7+x-6=100=3x+1.
Subtracting 1 from both sides, we get 3x=99

Dividing both sides by 3, we have x=33

John blinks every 6 seconds, Jeremy every 4 seconds, so they both will blink next on a common factor of 6 and 4, or an LCD, that'd be 12 seconds later, so at 00:00:12.

Solve:<br> -3/4+p=1/2<br> Thank you so much!

shepuryov [24]

-3 / 4 + p = 1/2

LCD 4 and 2 = 4

Multiply by LCD = 4

p. (4)- 3/4 .( 4 ) = 1/2.(4)

4 p - 3 = 2

Add 3 to both sides:

4 p - 3 + 3 = 2 + 3

4 p = 5

Divide both sides by 4 :

4p / 4 = 5 /4

p = 5/4

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.
