"one less than the product of a number and 3 is 5 more than the number itself"

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  the number is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you'd like to find the number.

  3n -1 = n +5

Adding 1-n to both sides gives ...

  2n = 6

  n = 3 . . . . divide by 2

The number is 3.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The product of the number and 3 is 9. One less is 8. That is 5 more than the number itself: 8 = 3 + 5.

Simple interest is basically the cost of borrowing money over a period of time.  So if you have borrowed $110.00 at 5% for two years, you will multiply the 5% by the two years (presuming that it is 5% annual percentage rate (APR).  So, You will multiply the 110 by 10% (or .1) to get $11 dollars of simple interest.
