3 0

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here first open the inner parentheses and use the distributive property,

4(x+5)=4x+20\\\\(x+4(x+5))=(x+4x+20)=(5x+20)\\\\3(x+4(x+5))=3(5x+20)=15x+60\\\\(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=(x+15x+60)=16x+60\\\\2(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=2(16x+60)=32x+120\\\\x+2(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=x+32x+120=33x+120\\\\\\Hence\ x+2(x+3(x+4(x+5)))=x+32x+120=33x+120\\\\\Rightarrow 33x+120=153\\\\33x=153-120\\\\33x=33\\\\x=1

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$ 31050

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1 : Write the formula for calculating simple interest.</em>

Simple Interest = <u>P x R x T </u>

                                100

P: Principal Amount-The loan taken (30,000)

R: Interest rate at which the loan is give (6)

T: Time period of the loan in years-there are 12 months in 1 year. There are 7 months from May till June (7/12)

<em>Step 2: Substitute values in the formula</em>

Simple Interest = <u>30,000 x 6 x 7/12</u>

                                       100

Simple Interest = $1050

<em>Step 3: Calculate the amount due at maturity</em>

At the maturity or the end of the time period given, the original or principal amount of the loan has to be repaid along with the simple interest.

Amount at maturity = Principal Amount + Simple Interet

Amount at maturity = 30,000 + 1050

Amount at maturity = $31050

Tonya is twice Kevin's age. In three years, Tonya will be 17. And in another three years, Uncle Rob will be three times Tonya’s
zhuklara [117]
To find Kevin's age, subtract 17 by 3 to find how old Kevin is, which is 7. Then, to find Uncle rob's age, add 17 plus 3 to get 20, then multiply that by 3 to see how old Uncle Rob will be, which is 60.Then, subtract 6 from 60 to get 54.The final answer is that Kevin is 7 years old, and Uncle Rob is 54 years old. Hope this helps!
