<span>−3|2x + 6| = −12

</span><span>−3(2x + 6) = −12
-6x - 18 = -12
       -6x = -12 +18
       -6x = 6
           x=-1

</span>−3 [-(2x + 6)] = −12
−3 (-2x - 6) = −12
  6x +18 = -12
  6x = -12 -18
  6x = -30
     x=-5
<span>answer: x= -5 and x = -1

-3 | 2x + 6 | = -12
| 2x + 6 | = -12/-3
| 2x + 6 | = 4

2x + 6 = 4             -(2x + 6) = 4
2x = 4 - 6              -2x - 6 = 4
2x = -2                   -2x = 4 + 6
x = -1                     -2x = 10
                               x = -5

solution is : x = -1 or x = -5

What is the net decimal equivalent of the series 30/25/15. round to the nearest thousandths?
Brut [27]
<span>We can determine, a 30/25/15 series trade discount would be calculated as follows:

let X = retail price.

X - 0.30 </span>× X = Y    ⇒ first discounted price.
<span>
Y - 0.25 </span>× Y = Z    ⇒ second discounted price.
<span>
Z - 0.15*Z = T        </span>⇒ total discounted price.
<span>
X - 0.30 </span>× X = (1 - 0.30) × X = 0.70 × X = Y
<span>
Y - 0.25 </span>× Y = (1 - 0.25) × Y = 0.75 × Y = Z
<span>
Z - 0.15 </span>× Z  = (1 - 0.15) × Z  = 0.85 × Z = T
<span>
since Z = 0.85 </span>× Y, then 0.85 × Z = 0.85 × 0.75 × Y
<span>
since Y = 0.70 </span>× X, then 0.85 × Z = 0.85 × 0.75 × 0.70 × X
<span>
based on the above, then T = total discount


                                               = 0.85 </span>× 0.75 × 0.70 × X


                                               = 0.44625X<span>

30/25/15 series discount is equivalent to a total discount of 44.625%

What is the balance of an investment after 2 years if the starting amount was 543300
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is simple interest, you have to use the formula I = Prt.

(I is interest, P is principal (the starting amount), and r is the & rate as a decimal.

So, the interest would be

I = 543,300 (0.048) (2) = $52,156.80

The balance is the total amount.  The balance would be the starting amount plus the interest.

Balance = 543,300 + 52,156.80 = $595,456.80
