How old am i if 200 reduced by 2 times my age equals 16?

1 answer:

3 0

Ok, so since it doesn't give a value for "my age", we'll call it x. So the sentence translates into an equation...

200 reduced means... 200 -
by 2 times my age means... 2x
equals 16 means... = 16

200 - 2x = 16

Now let's solve for x to find "my age"

First subtract 200 from each side to begin to isolate x

-2x = -184

Divide each side by -2 to isolate x

x = -184/-2
x = 92

I'm 92 years old!

Supplementary angles definition: They add up to 180°

There are several ways to prove a parallelogram:

1. Opposite sides theorem converse

2. Opposite angles theorem converse

3. Parallelogram diagonals theorem converse

4. Parallel congruent sides theorem

∠P + ∠Q = 180° --1

∠P + ∠S = 180° --2

1: ∠P = 180° - ∠Q

Sub 1 into 2:

180° - ∠Q + ∠S = 180°

180° + ∠S = 180° + ∠Q

∠S = ∠Q

Or you can try saying the opposite sides are parallel, since they are interior angles and those are straight lines

igor_vitrenko [27]

Jesse saved about $85.77 in interest over the course of a year if he transfer from one credit card to another.

<h3>What is the interest accrued on savings?</h3>

The interest accrued on saving is the interest gained on saving or investment over a period of time.

The amount of money saved in interest by Jesse over a period of 12 months provided that the transferred his balance to a credit card is calculated as follows:

Amount saved = $\mathbf{P_x(1 + \dfrac{r}{P_x})^{12}-P_y(1 + \dfrac{r}{P_y})^{12}}$

Amount saved = $\mathbf{1200(1 + \dfrac{18.7}{1200})^{12} - 1200(1 + \dfrac{12.5}{1200})^{12}}$

Amount saved = $85.768

Amount saved = $85.77
