Simplify. 5 - 2(x - 3)

Mathematics

V125BC [204]4 years ago
3 0
To solve this, we simply need to remember our rules about order of operations. They tell us that first, we should distribute the 2 with the rest of the parentheses.

5-2(x-3)
5-2x+6

Next, we should combine our like-terms.

5-2x+6
11-2x

Seeing as we do not know the value of the variable, the simplest form of the expression is 11-2x.

frez [133]
Part A: 
(3x+5)+(3x+5)+(4x-3)+(4x-3)=p
3x+3x+4x+4x=14x
5+5+-3+-3=4
14x+4=p
     -4    -4
14x=p-4
----  -----
14    14

x=1/4 p + -2/7

14(1/4 p +-2/7) +4=p
14(0.25p + 0.28571428571)+4=p
3.5 + 3.99999999994 + 4=p
11.4999999999=p

This may not help by no harm in trying.

Sarah invested £12000 in a unit trust 5 years ago, the value of the unit trust increased by 7% per annum for each of the last 3
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it increased 7% per annum in last three years and decreased by 3% per annum before that, it implies that the unit trust decreased by 3% per annum for the first 2 years and then increased by 7% per annum for the next 3 years in the total 5 year period

The invested after 2 years = 12,000*(1-0.03)^2 = £11,290.8

This amount then grows by 7% for the next 3 years making it = 11,290.80*(1+0.07)^3 =  £13,831.7155 = £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)
