Answer:
The original amount owned on a loan is known as principal.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3x + 2(4x + -4) = 3
Reorder the terms:
3x + 2(-4 + 4x) = 3
3x + (-4 * 2 + 4x * 2) = 3
3x + (-8 + 8x) = 3
Reorder the terms:
-8 + 3x + 8x = 3
Combine like terms: 3x + 8x = 11x
-8 + 11x = 3
Solving
-8 + 11x = 3
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '8' to each side of the equation.
-8 + 8 + 11x = 3 + 8
Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0
0 + 11x = 3 + 8
11x = 3 + 8
Combine like terms: 3 + 8 = 11
11x = 11
Divide each side by '11'.
x = 1
Simplifying
x = 1
X= -5/2 (0.4)
or
x= -2 1/2 (2.5)
Answer:
300 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original amount = x
x - 2/5x was what his mother's share looked.
5/5 x - 2/5 x
3/5x is what is left.
3/5 x - 1/4 * 3/5 x - 2/3x * 3/5 = his sister's share and his brothers
3/5x - 1/4*3/5 x - 2/3 * 3/5 = 15
3/5x * (1 - 1/4 - 2/3) = 15
3/5 x 5/60 = 15
15 / 300 * x = 15
1/20 x = 15
x = 15 * 20
x = 300
Answer:
y=1/2x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given the slope, 1/2. So you can plug it into the equation (y=mx+b)
You also need to plug in the x and y coordinate your given so you'll have
-3=1/2(2)+b. Then you solve for b, which is -4. You now have your answer, y=1/2x-4.
