We can set Maggie's age to x
If her brother is six years younger than four times her age, than her brother must be equal to: 4x-6
Since the sum of their ages is 39, we can set up an equation.
(Sum of Maggie's age) + (sum of Maggie's brother's age) = 39
x + (4x -6) = 39
5x -6 = 39
5x = 45
x = 9 , Maggie's age is 9

Answer:
$12,415.48
Step-by-step explanation:
A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
where A is the final amount,
P is the initial amount,
r is the annual interest rate as a decimal,
n is the number of compoundings per year,
and t is the number of years.
A = 8000 (1 + 0.152/2)^(2×3)
A = 8000 (1.076)^6
A = 12415.48
The first one is 2,314,572,763 the other one is 7,156,134,563
Answer:
9 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question
Jesse has $3.40 in quarters and nickels
Quarters = q = number of quarters
1 quarter = $0.25
nickels = n = number of nickels
1 nickel = $0.05
Hence,
0.25q + 0.05n = $3.40 .......Equation 1
The number of nickels is 5 more than 2 times the number of quarters.
n = 2q + 5
0.25q + 0.05n = $3.40 .......Equation 1
0.25q + 0.05(2q + 5) = 3.40
0.25q + 0.10q + 0.25= 3.40
0.35q = 3.40 - 0.25
0.35q = 3.15
q = 3.15/0.35
q = 9
Therefore, Jessie has 9 quarters.
