0.50x-6=4
move -6 to the other side
sign changes from -6 to 6
0.50x-6+6= 4+6
0.50x= 10
divide by 0.50 for both sides
0.50/0.50x= 10/0.50
x= 20
Answer: x= 20
Answer:
The money was left untouched for 2 years and 6 months or just 2.5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the time taken for an amount deposited to earn a certain amount of interest.
Mathematically, simple interest can be calculated using the formula;
I = PRT/100
where I is the interest accrued which is 3696.88 - 3,500 = 196.88
P is the principal which is the amount deposited = 3,500 according to the question
R is the rate which is 2.25% according to the question
T is the time which we are to find
we can rearrange the formula making T the subject and we obtain the following;
T = 100I/PR
substituting the values listed above we have;
T = (100 * 196.88)/(3500 * 2.25)
T = 19688/7875
T = 2.5 years or 2 years 6 months
The answer would be c

We know that he weeds gardens for 15 hours, and mows lawns for x hours.
If he wants to earn $252 per month, we can express the following
Now, we solve for x
<h2>Hence, he has to mow lawns for 13 hours to earn at least $252.</h2>
