Hi!

<h3>Let's do the first step (add 2x). </h3>

5 + 3x + 2x = -2x + 2x + 9

<em>5 + 5x = 9</em>

<h3>Our goal is to isolate x on one side, so the next step would be to subtract 5 (or add -5).</h3>

5 + -5 + 5x = 9 + -5

<u><em>5x = 4</em></u>

<h2>The answer is B. add -5</h2><h3><em>And if you want to finish solving, you would divide by 5 on both sides.</em></h3>

5x/5 = 4/5

x = 0.8

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

The amount after 4 years = $ 16198.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

Compound interest

A = P[1 + R/n]^nt

Were A - Amount

P - Principle

R - Rate of interest

t - Number of years

n - Number of times compounded

<u>To find the amount</u>

Here P = $11,800, R = 8% = 0.08, t = 4 years and n = 4 times

A = P[1 + R/n]^nt

 =  11800[1 + 0.08/4]^(4 * 4)

 = 16198.87

Therefore amount after 4 years = $ 16198.87
