Answer:
n=12
Step-by-step explanation:
3.3(n-8)-n=1.2
Distribute
3.3n -26.4 -n = 1.2
Combine like terms
2.3n -26.4 = 1.2
Add 26.4 to each side
2.3n -26.4+26.4 = 1.2 +26.4
2.3n = 27.6
Divide each side by 2.3
2.3n/2.3 = 27.6/2.3
n=12
Your interest formula is given to you.
<span>Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring) </span>
<span>Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100 </span>
<span>How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise, prices are going up faster than you're saving. </span>
<span>Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782 </span>
<span>How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest. </span>
<span>Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power. </span>
Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, use this and set up an equation;
x + ( 4x -5 ) + 55 = 180
Simplify
x + ( 4x - 5 ) + 55 = 180
5x + 50 = 180
Inverse operations;
5x + 50 = 180
-50 - 50
5x = 130
/5 /5
x = 26
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I wonder if it is the minus that is causing the problem?
Let x = - 5
3*(-5) - 9
-15 - 9
This is a money question. If you are 15 dollars in debt and you spend another 9, where are you? (In the company of the American government. They do this all the time).
- 15 - 9 = - 24
