The answer is 20 since 1/5 of 20 is 4, and 20 + 4 = 24.

Answer:  The correct option is (B) n = 20.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that when a number is added to 1/5 of itself, the result is 24. The equation that models this problem is given by

n+\dfrac{1}{5}n=24~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We are to find the value of n.

Solving equation (i), we have

n+\dfrac{1}{5}n=24\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5n+n}{5}=24\\\\\Rightarrow 6n=5\times24\\\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{5\times24}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow n=20.

Thus, the required value of n is 20.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Answer:

35 :

t = 6.25 years

(about 6 years 3 months)

Equation:

t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 4%/100 = 0.04 per year,

then, solving our equation

t = (1/0.04)((2500/2000) - 1) = 6.25

t = 6.25 years

The time required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $2,500.00 from simple interest on a principal of $2,000.00 at an interest rate of 4% per year is 6.25 years (about 6 years 3 months).

36:

The two distances are the same (out and back), so set them equal.

That is done by having a (rate)(time) equal a (rate)(time).

One time is “x” and the other is “4.8-x.”

One rate is 460 and the other is 500.

460 x = 500 (4.8 -x)

460 x = 2400 - 500x

900 x = 2400

x = 2.5 hours for the slower plane.

4.8- x = 2.3 hours for the faster plane.
