We hates fractions, yess precious, nasty fracitons

multiply both sides by (x-2)(x+1) to clea fractions
x(x+1)+(x-1)(x-2)=(-1)(x-2)(x+1)
distribute
x^2+x+x^2-3x+2=-x^2+x-2
add like terms
2x^2-2x+2=-x^2+x+2
add x^2 to both sdes
3x^2-2x+2=x+2
minus x from both sides
3x^2-3x+2=2
minus 2 both sides
3x^2-3x=0
factor
(3x)(x-1)=0
set to zero

3x=0
x=0

x-1=0
x=1

x=0 or 1

1. Over 3 years, how much more does $3000 in a savings account with an APR of 3.2% compounded
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

$1080

Step-by-step explanation:

((3000 \times 0.032) \times 2) \times 3 = 576

convert % to decimal by multiplying 3.2%x100=0.032

then multiply by initial amount 3000x0.032

then multiply by 2 because it's compounding semiannual

then multiply by 3 because it's over a 3 yr period

do the same for the quarterly compound but multiply by 4 because it's quarterly

((3000 \times 0.03) \times 2) \times3 = 1080

over a 3 yr period the quarterly compounded amount will earn:

1080 - 576 = 504

$504 more than the account compounded semiannual

I don't understand proportional relationship can u help? ​
Reptile [31]

Answer: I’ll explain it in simpler terms for you. A proportional relationship is one in which two quantities vary directly with each other. Ratios are proportional if they represent the same relationship. One way to see if two ratios are proportional is to write them as fractions and then reduce them. If the reduced fractions are the same, your ratios are proportional. An example of a proportional relationship is simple interest, tax, markups and markdowns, gratuities and commissions, fees, percent increase and decrease, percent error. Hope this helps! :D
