Answer:
<h2>x = -11</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
In algebra, the goal is always to isolate the variable, so that its value can be determined.
<h3>Step 1: Add x</h3>
6 + x = -5
<h3>Step 2: Subtract 6</h3>
x = -11
<h3>Step 3: Check</h3>
6 = -5 - -11
6 = -5 + 11
6 = 6 ✔
<h3>Step 4: Answer</h3>
x = -11
I'm always happy to help :)
Use the formula i=prt, where i is the interest earned, p is the principal, r is the rate (as a decimal fraction) and t is the elapsed time, in years.
Here i = $72 = $1200 r (9/12) (9 months is 9/12, or 3/4, of 1 year)
Reducing,
$72 = $900r
Solving for r, r=0.08, or 8 percent per year.
