Given:
Let x be the whole amount inherited.
1/2 * x - invested with Bernie Madoff
1/3 * x - lost due to identity theft
1/8 * x - lost in casino
40,000 - remainder
x - x/2 - x/3 - x/8 = 40,000
LCM:
2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24
3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
8: 8, 16, 24,
x * 24/24 = 24x / 24
x/2 * 12/12 = 12x / 24
x/3 * 8/8 = 8x / 24
x/8 * 3/3 = 3x / 24
40,000 * 24/24 = 960,000 / 24
24x/24 - 12x/24 - 8x/24 - 3x/24 = 960,000/24
(24x - 12x - 8x - 3x)/24 = 960,000/24
x/24 = 960,000/24
24 * x/24 = 24 * 960,000/24
x = 960,000
x = 960,000 initial inheritance
x/2 = 960,000/2 = 480,000 invested with Bernie Madoff
x/3 = 960,000/3 = 320,000 lost due to identity theft
x/8 = 960,000/8 = 120,000 lost in the casino
40,000 - remaining amount.
960k - 480k - 320k - 120k = 40k
40k = 40k
<span>2 ln 8 + 3 ln y simplifies to ln 8^2 + ln y^3, which in turn simplifies to
ln 64/y^3, or ln {64*y^3}</span>
16ft= 192 in
8ft= 96 in
192/36= 96/16 = 6
Your drawing is 1/6 of the actual billboard
Answers + Step-by-step explanation :
a) the equation should be:
7(n + 5) = 91 since you first add 5 to n and then multiply it by 7. The answer is 91 so that is on the other side of the equal sign
b) we can solve our equation to find for n, the number jim thought of
7(n + 5) = 91
I will use the distributive property.
7n + 35 = 91
Subtract 35 on both sides
7n = 56
Now divide 7 on both sides to find n
n = 8
The number Jim was thinking of was 8! this should be correct, hope this helps!
