Using the cross product property on this proportion gives us the following equation:
20 (2x - 9) = 10 (9)
Use the distributive property and multiply
40x - 180 = 90
Add 180 to both sides
40x = 270
Divide 40 from both sides
x = 270/40
Simplify fraction
x = 27/4

Answer:
(a) A = 700×1.015^t
(b) 36.2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Each year, the account value is multiplied by (1 + 1.5%) = 1.015. Repeated multiplication is signified using an exponent. In t years, when the account has been multiplied by 1.015 t times, the account value will be ...
A = $700×1.015^t
__
(b) You want to find t when A=$1200. Logarithms are involved.
1200 = 700×1.015^t . . . . use 1200 for A
1200/700 = 1.015^t . . . . . divide by 700
log(12/7) = t×log(1.015) . . . . . take logarithms
log(12/7)/log(1.015) = t ≈ 36.2 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
It will take about 36.2 years for the account balance to reach $1200.
Just divide 1.36 by 8

Answer:
B. $3.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of cases of soda bought = 12
Total bill payed = $41.40
Let x represent the cost of 1 case.
Thus:
12x = $41.40
Divide both sides by 12
12x/12 = 41.40/12
x = 3.45
Cost of each case = x = $3.45
