Mathematics

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

23 = 3x-10

1. Add 10 to both sides of the equation. -10 plus 10 is equal to zero so it cancels out to nothing, and 23 plus 10 is 33.

2. The new equation is now 33 = 3x.

3. Now you want to divide both sides by 3 to make x by itself since that is what you are trying to solve for.

4. 33/3 is equal to 11 so x = 11.

From the yearbook receipts the students council deposited apart of the $1200 in a saving account receiving 9% interest per annum
Naddika [18.5K]
There was $800 deposited at 9% interest and $400 deposited at 4% interest.

The formula for simple interest is I = prt.  Using our information we have:

88 = x(0.09)(1) + (1200-x)(0.04)(1)
88 = 0.09x + 48 - 0.04x
88 = 0.05x + 48

Subtract 48 from both sides:
88 - 48 = 0.05x + 48 - 48
40 = 0.05x

Divide both sides by 0.05:
40/0.05 = 0.05x/0.05
x = 800
1200 - x = 400
