The formula of a continuous compound interest is
A=p e^rt
A the balance?
P present value 750
E constant
R interest rate 0.08
T time 5 years
A=750×e^(0.08×5)
A=1,118.87
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

What do you need help clarifying? Did you want to go over the questions you missed? (:
Maria = x
Tom = y
Use substitution
x+y=30
2y=x
2y+y=30
3y=30
y=10
Tom is 10 years old.
x+y=30
x+10=30
x=20
Maria is 20 years old.
Answer:
x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
These two angles have to equal 180 because they are opposite of each other. Therefore, the equation will be 129+x+x+59=180. You add all common terms. 2x+188=180. You want to isolate x so you have to subtract both sides by 188. Therefore, the equation will be 2x=-8. Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x. x=-8/2. This is equal to x=-4.
