The answer can be readily calculated using a single variable, x:
Let x = the amount being invested at an annual rate of 10%
Let (8000 - x) = the amount being invested at an annual rate of 12%
The problem is then stated as:
(x * 0.10) + ((8000 - x) * 0.12) = 900
0.10(x) + ((8000 * 0.12) - 0.12(x)) = 900
0.10(x) + 960 - 0.12(x) = 900
0.10(x) - 0.12(x) = 900 - 960
-0.02(x) = -60
-0.02(x) * -100/2 = -60 * -100/2
x = 6000 / 2
x = 3000
Thus, $3,000 is invested at 10% = $300 annually; and $8,000 - $3,000 = $5,000 invested at 12% = $600 annually, which sum to $900 annual investment.
You can just do the inverse operation. 39 divied by 10 = 3.9
so 3.9 *10 =39
hope it helped
The answer to your question is about 9 times so ya that your answer about 27 times
A. 10% is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Extraneous solutions, is answers that we get because of squaring both sides of the radical equation, but in reality, they are not going to be the solutions of the given equation.
(√(4x+41))²=(x+5)²
4x+41=x²+10x+25
x²+6x-16=0
(x-2)(x+8)=0
x1=2 , x2=-8,
And now we must to check them by substitution into initial equation
√(4x+41)=x+5
1) x=2, √(4*2+41)=2+5, √49=7, 7=7 true
2) x=-8, √(4*(-8)+41)=-8+5, √9 =-3 false,
so an extraneous solution x=-8
