13/20,3/5,29/50,14/25,53/100
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
6% of number = 6/100 × x = 6x/100 = 3x/50
Sum of the number and 6% of itself = 42.4
x + (3x/50) = 42.4
(50x+3x)/50 = 42.4
53x = 42.4 × 50
53x = 2120
x = 2120/53
x = 40
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Solve for x using:

First, we need to identify a, b and c
The general form of a quadratic equation is:

So, by comparison with 

Substitute these values of a, b and c in




Split the expression to two

Answer:
<h2>3 + 4(n - 1)</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
let r be the common differenc of the sequence
Term 12 - Term 7 = (12 - 7)r
then
47 - 27 = 5r
then
20 = 5r
then
r = 4
term 7 = term 1 + (7 - 1)r
then
27 = term 1 + 6r = term 1 + 24
then
Term1 = 27 - 24 = 3
<em><u>therefore </u></em>
the standard explicit formula of the sequence is :
term 1 + (n - 1)r = 3 + 4(n - 1)
This is tricky because we are given the interest rate for the year but the problem is figureing the interest for 6 months or 1/2 year. We will have to double the difference before solving for the yearly interest.
572.60 - 560.00 = 12.60 interest added for 6 months x 2 = 25.20 for 12 months
(This problem assumes the interest will stay the same the next 6 months)
We need to find what percent 25.20 is to our original balance.
25.20/560 = x / 100
2520 = 560x
x = 4.5 percent interest
Check .045 x 560.00 = 25.20 interest in one year (or 12.60 in 6 months)
