There are 10 boys because half of 10 is 5 5+5 equals 10
It is 3y because of the calculation being equivalent
Steps
I’m using elimination so I’m trying to get rid of y
To do that I multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by -3. Then solve
4x + 6x = 12
15x + -6x = -12
—————————
19x + 0 = 0
Divid by 19 to get x to one side. 0/19 is 0 so
X= 0
Plug that into an equation so 0 + 3y = 6
Divid by 3 and y = 2
Answer x = 0 y = 2
4 + 3 + 1 = 8
450000 divided by 8 = 56250
The first person gets 225000.
The second person gets 168750.
The last person gets 56250.
pls give me brainliest if it helped:)
Answer: $42042.50
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to use algebra and equations.
A = P x (1 + (R/n)/100)^nt
our amount (A) is $72K
the number of times we compound the money (n) is 12 (12 months in a year, 'compounded monthly')
our rate (R) is 9 (9%)
our time (t) is 6 (6 years)
we need to find our principal/initial amount (p)
72000 = p x (1 + 0.0075)^12x6
p = $42042.50
