You need to set up a direct proportion. You have to relate Keith and Jared's ages to the ratio you were given.

Givens
Keith is 24
Keith / Jared = 3/5
J = Jared 

Solution
3/5 = 24 / J Cross multiply
3*J = 5 * 24 Combine factors on the right.
3J = 120     Divide by 3
J = 120 / 3
J = 40

Conclusion
Jared is 40 years old.

Investment of $2000 at 10% simple interest for 9 years
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The last investment (C) has the least interest of $600

The other two investments (A and B) have the <u>same</u> amount of interest of $1800.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest Formula</u>

I = Prt

where:

  • I = interest earned
  • P = principal
  • r = interest rate (in decimal form)
  • t = time (in years)

<u>Investment A</u>

  • P = $2000
  • r = 10% = 0.1
  • t = 9 years

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for I:

⇒ I = 2000(0.1)(9)

⇒ I = $1800

<u>Investment B</u>

  • P = $3000
  • r = 3% = 0.03
  • t = 20 years

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for I:

⇒ I = 3000(0.03)(20)

⇒ I = $1800

<u>Investment C</u>

  • P = $2000
  • r = 10% = 0.1
  • t = 3 years

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for I:

⇒ I = 2000(0.1)(3)

⇒ I = $600

The last investment (C) has the least interest of $600.

The other two investments (A and B) have the <u>same</u> amount of interest of $1800.

Solve: 5/2x - 1/3= -1/2<br><br>A. x=-5/12<br>B. x= -25/12<br>C. x= -1/15<br>D. x= 1/3​
devlian [24]

Answer:

c. x = -1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

5/2x - 1/3 = -1/2 [multiply the whole equation by 6 (lowest common denom)

15x - 2 = -3 [add 2 on both sides of equation

15x = -1 [divide both sides by 15 to isolate x]

x = -1/15

Divide (18x^3 + 12x – 3x) ÷ 6x^2
andre [41]
First let's simplify it

\frac{18x^3 + 9x}{6x^2}

Now let's factor it
\frac{9x(2x^2 + 1)}{6x^2}

Lastly, let's simplify
\frac{3(2x^2 + 1)}{2x}
