There are two possible solutions
X=3
X=-3
<u>Solution-</u>
Let's assume, the rate of interest of $8000 is x%,
then the rate of interest of $17000 is (x+0.3x) =1.3x%
Interest earned by $8000,

Interest earned by $17,000,

According to the question,





∴ Rate of interest of $8000 is 1.96% and rate of interest of $17000 is (1.3×1.96) =2.55%
Answer:I don’t really understand
Step-by-step explanation:
Can u please explain?
A+b 5
------- = ---
2a-b 4
b 5
-------- = ---- => 9b = 5a+45 => b = (5a+45)/9
a+9 9
a+b 5
------- = --- => 4a+4b = 10a-5b
2a-b 4
9b = 6a
9(5a+45) =6a divide both sides by 3
3(5a+45) = 2a
15a +135 = 2a
13a = -135
a = -135/13 = -10,38
a= -10,38
9b=6a
3b=2a
3b = 2(-10,38)
3b = -20,76
b = -20,76/3
b = -6,92
hope this helped
