x = 4

First you combine like terms:

8 + 4x = 24

Then solve:

4x = 24 - 8

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

8 - 2x + 6x = 24

The first step is to simply both sides of the equation.

8+-2x+6x=24

(−2x+6x)+(8)=24

4x + 8 = 24

The second step is to subtract 8 from both sides.

4x + 8 -8 = 24 - 8

4x = 16

The third and final step is to divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 16/4

x = 4.

If $396 is invested at an interest rate of 13% per year and is compounded continuously, how much will the investment be worth in

Vilka [71]

Answer: First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount invested = $396

Interest rate = 13% per year

Time = 3 years

We will use the "Exponential growth formula" i.e.

$A=Pe^{rt}$

Here,

P denotes Principle amount

r denoted rate of growth

t denotes number of years,

So, it becomes

$A=396e^{0.13\times 3}\\\\A=396e^{0.69}\\\\A=\$584.88$

Hence, First option is correct.
