X times 0.05 = $50
Solve for x
We do the inverse of times which is divide
$50 divide by 0.05 = $1000
Thus, $1000 is the amount of loan.
Answer:In Heather's solution to the problem, she wrote and solved an equation.
Her work is:
Step 1: 1.08(x +9.01 +0.98 +5.01) = 21.87
Solving like terms
1.08(x+15}=21.87
dividing both side by 1.08
we get
x+15=21.87/1.08
x+15=20.25
subtracting both side by 13.9198
x=20.25-15
x=5.25
