12(5x-1)=7(2x+2)
Distribute 12 and 7

60x-12=14x+14
Add 12 to each side

60x=14x+26
Subtract 14x on each side

46x=26
Divide by 46 on each side

x=26/46 or x=13/23

White raven [17]

Answer:

He must invest R297 521 today.

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Banabas must pay his ex-wife an amount of R350 000 in two years’ time.

This means that $t = 2, A(t) = 350000$
