It is the third one that is the answer
-28=-2x
Divide by negative 2
Your answer: x=14
After three years, your investment would be $575. The formula is A=P(1+(r/n)^(n*t) where A is the final amount, P is the initial balance, r is the interest rate, n is the amount of time the interest is compounded in a year, and t is the amount of time that has passed.
P=500
r= 5% is which converted into a decimal by dividing 5 by 100 which is then 0.05
n= 1 since it is compounded annually
t= 3
Hope this helped.
2(x+y)=16,
x+y=16/2=8
y=8-x
x*y=15
x(8-x)=15
8x-x^2=15
x^2-8x+15=0
x^2-3x-5x+15=0
x(x-3)-5(x-3)=0
(x-3)(x-5)=0
x=3,5
when x=3
y=8-3=5
when x=5
y=8-5=3
length=5 meters
width=3 meters.
