Answer:
<em>x = 2.5</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
- 2x - ( - 5 - 4x ) = - 5 ( 2x - 7 )
- 2x + 5 + 4x = - 10x + 35
- 2x + 5 + 4x = - 10x + 35
- 2x + 4x + 10x = 35 - 5
12x = 30
<em>x = </em>
<em> = 2.5</em>
Check the answer:
<em>L.H.S.</em> = - 2(2.5) - [ - 5 - 4(2.5) ] = <em>10</em>
<em>R.H.S.</em> = - 5 [ 2(2.5) - 7 ] = <em>10</em>
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 6%/100 = 0.06 per year,
putting time into years for simplicity,
4 months ÷ 12 months/year = 0.333333 years,
then, solving our equation
I = $ 376.00
I = 18800 × 0.06 × 0.333333 = 375.999624
I = $ 376.00
The simple interest accumulated
on a principal of $ 18,800.00
at a rate of 6% per year
for 0.333333 years (4 months) is $ 376.00.
Answer:
$406
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
Cakes and More baked 1,450 chocolate chip cookies
The bakery sold them in boxes of 25 cookies each
The number of boxes will be
1450/25
=58 boxes
Step two:
The cost per box is $7
hence the cost of 58 boxes will be
=7*58
=$406
