Let the number be x,
(1/2)x=1+(1/3)x
Solving for x,
(1/2)x-(1/3)x=1+(1/3)x-(1/3)x
(1/2)x-(1/3)x=1
(1*3/6)x-(1*2/6)x=1
(3/6)x-(2/6)x=1
(1/6)x=1
6*(1/6)x=6*1
Therefore, x=6

(1/2)x = (1/3)x +1
-(1/3)x  -(1/3)x 

(1/6)x=1
*6        *6
x=6

And so x=6, or your number is 6

zheka24 [161]
The formula is
A=p (1+r/k)^kt
A future value 3000
P present value 150
R interest rate 0.025
T time?
3000=150 (1+0.025/12)^12t
Solve for t
3000/150=(1+0.025/12)^12t
Take the log
Log (3000/150)=log (1+0.025/12)×12t
12t=Log (3000/150)÷log (1+0.025/12)
T=(log(3,000÷150)÷log(1+0.025÷12))÷12
T=119.95 years

Find the other endpoint of the line segment with the given endpoint and midpoint: endpoint(1.7, -4.6) midpoint (-7.5, 0.3).. (ne
Sergio [31]

Answer:

(- 16.7, 5.2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

let the coordinates of the endpoint be (x , y )

using the midpoint formula

consider the x- coordinate

\frac{1}{2}(x + 1.7) = - 7.5 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

x + 1. 7 = - 7.5 ( subtract 1.7 from both sides )

x = - 16.7

consider the y-coordinate

\frac{1}{2}(y - 4.6 ) = 0.3 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

y - 4.6 = 0.6 ( add 4.6 to both sides )

y = 5.2

endpoint = (- 16.7, 5.2 )
