Solve and the solution would be (-1, 2)
x value = -1
Answer:
$11040
Step-by-step explanation:
first of all the question says that $4000 were earned in a year and asks for what the new vale would be after the next 3 years with a discount rate of 8%.
If 1 year=$4000,then 3 years=$12000
100%-8%=92% (this happens because there is still a remaining amount that still has a cost to it),so 12000*92%=$11040
-x + 1/2 = x + 4 1/2
+x +x
1/2 = 2x + 4 1/2
-4 1/2 - 4 1/2
-4 = 2x
x = -2
Answer:
Pete: 39, Linda: 42
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose Pete has x dollars. If he has 3 dollars less than Linda, then Linda has 3+x dollars. Together, they have 81 dollars:
x+3+x=81
2x+3=81
2x=78
x=39
Since Pete has x dollars, and x=39, he has $39.
Linda has 3+x, which is 39+3 = $42

Answer:
9 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Make 2/3 , 1/2 , & 1/6 have the same denominator. 6 is the least common multiple for all 3 fractions.
2/3 gets multiplied by 2/2
1/2 gets multiplied by 3/3
1/6 stays the same
2/3 becomes 4/6
1/2 becomes 3/6
1/6 stays 1/6
Follow the order of operations from the original equation.
4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6 then 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6
6 - 1 = 5 then 5 + 4 = 9
Simplify 2/6 to 1/3
Remember to add 1/3 back to 9 making it 9 1/3
