Answer: She invested $12000 in fund B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount which she invested in fund A.

Let y represent the amount which she invested in fund B.

The amount she invested in Fund A was twice as much as the amount she invested in fund B. This means that

x = 2y

Fund A returned a 7% profit. It means that the profit returned from fund A is

7/100 × x = 0.07x

Fund B returned a 5% profit. It means that the profit returned from fund B is

5/100 × y = 0.05y

if total profit from the two funds together was $2280, it means that

0.07x + 0.05y = 2280- - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 2y into equation 1, it becomes

0.07 × 2y + 0.05y = 2280

0.14y + 0.05y = 2280

0.19y = 2280

y = 2280/0.19

y = 12000

x = 2y = 2 × 12000

x = 24000

20+x=25 so I'm doing addition property of equality so what does this mean
Stels [109]

The addition property of equality is the idea we can add some number to both sides of an equation. You must add the same number to both sides to keep things balanced.

It's asking "what number can we add to both sides of this equation so that we isolate x?"

Think of 20+x as x+20. We can rearrange terms since adding in any order doesn't matter (eg: 2+3 = 3+2 = 5)

So we really have this equation: x+20 = 25

We can add -20 to both sides to cancel out the +20 on the left side

x+20 = 25

x+20+(-20) = 25+(-20) ...... add -20 to both sides

x = 5

This is the exact same as subtracting 20 from both sides. So 5 will go where x is, meaning that 20+x = 20+5 = 25

What numbers multiply to -756 but when added = 1
telo118 [61]
So?
-756*x +x =1 ?
-755 x = 1
x= -1/755

or
what two numbers when multiplied equal -756 but when added together equal 1?

numbers are x and y
x*y= -756
x+y=1

rearrange the 2nd eq
y=1-x
substitute

x(1-x)=-756
distribute
x-x^2=-756
solve for zero
x^2-x-756=0
