Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5x+4=1/3x-8

add 8 to both sides and subtract 1/5x from both sides

4+8=1/3x-1/5x

12=5/15x-3/15x

12=2/15x

divide both sides by 2/15

12÷2/15=x

when dividing by a fraction, invert and multiply

12*15/2=x

90=x

CHECK:

1/5(90)+4=1/3(90)-8

18+4=30-8

22=22

Answer:

Sara will have US$ 2,251.02 in the bank after 4 years for her trip to Italy.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data given to us for solving the question:

Investment of Sara during her 1st year of college = US$ 2,000

Duration of the investment = 4 years

Annual interest rate = 3%

2. Let's find the future value of this investment after 4 years, using the following formula:

FV = PV * (1 + r) ⁿ

PV = Investment of Sara during her 1st year of college = US$ 2,000

number of periods (n) = 4

rate (r) = 3% = 0.03

Replacing with the real values, we have:

FV = 2,000 * (1 + 0.03) ⁴

FV = 2,000 * (1.03) ⁴

FV = 2,000 * 1.12550881

FV = 2,251.02

Sara will have US$ 2,251.02 in the bank after 4 years for her trip to Italy.

Show that each statement is true: Cos^4X-sin^4X=2cos^2X-1

Ivan

$cox^4x-sin^4x=2cos^2x-1\\\\
(cosx^2-sin^2x)(cosx^2x+sin^2x)=2cos^2x-1\\\\
cosx^2-sin^2x*1=2cos^2x-1\ \ \ | subtract\ 2cos^2x\\\\
-cosx^2-sin^2x=-1\ \ \ | multiply\ by\ -1\\\\
cosx^2+sin^2x=1\\\\
1=1$
