Answer:
10x+12 is the answer in my calculation.
Answer:
4:1 (I think)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's write some equations first:
For both prices increasing by 20:
then we can use cross multiplication
2x+40=5y+100
For both prices decreasing by 5:
same here:
5y-25=x-5
Using substitution for 5y, we get: 5y=x+20
2x+40=5y+100
2x+40=x+20+100
x=80
plugging this in to the second equation:
5y-25=x-5
5y-25=80-5
5y-25=75
5y=100
y=20
therefore we get x:y=80:20
4:1
Answer: $139390 must be paid back.
Step-by-step explanation:
We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Where
A = amount to be played back at the end of t years
r represents the interest rate.
n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.
P represents the principal or initial amount borrowed.
From the information given,
P = 41000
r = 8.5% = 8.5/100 = 0.085
n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.
t = 15 years
Therefore,
A = 41000(1 + 0.085/1)^1 × 15
A = 41000(1 + 0.085)^15
A = 41000(1.085)^15
A = $139390
