Lets say x is what we want to find. Since 85000 is 70% of X we can reverse this to find X itself.
X * 0.7 = 85000 our initial
X = 85000/0.7
X = 121428

We simply need to divide 85000 by 0.7.
Once we do that we find out that 85,000 is 70% of the number 121428.57 which rounded up equals 121429. Hope that helps! :)

For what value of k, -4 is a zero of polynomial x2-x-(2k+2)?

bekas [8.4K]

Hmm
well, um
if -4 is a zero then if we subsitute -4 for x, we should get 0

so
0=(-4)²-(-4)-(2k+2)
0=16+4-2k-2
0=18-2k
2k=18
divide by 2
k=9

k=9
the value k is 9

An actor invested some money at 5% simple interest, and $41,000 more than 4 times the amount at 9%. The total annual interest ea

NARA [144]

Answer:

The amount invested at 5%=$77,000
The amount invested at 9%=$349,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested at 5% simple interest =$x

He invested $41,000 more than 4 times the amount at 9%.

This amount is: $(4x+41000)

Total Annual Interest Earned = $35,260

Therefore, Time=1 year

Simple Interest $=\frac{Principal X Rate X Time}{100}$

Therefore, his total interest

=Interest from Investment 1 + Interest from Investment 2

$35260=\left(\frac{x*5*1}{100} \right)+\left(\frac{4x+41000*9*1}{100} \right)\\35260=0.05x+(0.36x+3690)\\35260-3690=0.05x+0.36x\\31570=0.41x\\\text{Divide both sides by 0.41}\\x=\$77000$
