2+4+5 is 11 and 33/11 is 3 so for every 1 is 3 years,
 the first is 2 so is 2x3=6
the second is 4 so is 4x3=12
the third is 5 so is 5x3=15

You could also write it as:
1st child's age:= 2x
2nd child:= 4x
3rd child:= 5x
2x+4x+5x=33
11x=33
x=3
Then
1st child's age:= 2x= 6
2nd child:= 4x= 12
<span>3rd child:= 5x= 15
</span>To check if it's correct you need to sum up: 6+12+15=33

Troy puts $200.00 into an account to use for school expenses. The account earns 7% interest, compounded annually. How much will
storchak [24]

Answer:

the final amount is = $280.51

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard formula for compound interest is given as;

A = P(1+r/n)^(nt) .....1

Given that;

Principal P = $200

Interest rate r = 7% = 0.07

Time t = 5 years

Final amount = A

Number of time compounded per year n = 1

Substituting the values;

A = 200(1+0.07/1)^(1×5)

A = 280.51

Therefore, the final amount is = $280.51

How to graph the equation
navik [9.2K]
First, you need to change it from standard form to slope-intercept form. To do this, you have to add 3x to both sides. Now that y is by itself, divide by 5 on both sides. Your equation should now be y=3x+3. Then, graph the points. Your x-intercept should be at (-5,0) and your y- intercept should be at (0,3).
