Ok well since it says the product of a number and 6 is 44 more than twice the number.  and from this they got 6x=44+2x because it SAYS THE PRODUCT OF A NUMBER U DON'T KKNOW WHAT THE NUMBER IS SO U USE A VARIABLE WHICH IS 6X THEY GOT = 44 FROM THE PRODUCT AND 2X FROM MORE THAN TWICE THE NUMBER AND TWICE IS 2 AND U DON'T KNOW WHAT THE NUMBER IS SO ONCE AGAIN USE A VARIABLE  
                   
 HOPE THIS HELPED

The " product " means multiply...

the product of a number and 6.......6*x or just 6x
" is " means equals
44 more then twice the number......44 more means u r gonna add 44.......twice the number.....means multiply the number (x) by 2......giving u 2x + 44...or 44 + 2x

so ur equation is :
6x = 44 + 2x.....subtract 2x from both sides
6x - 2x = 44
4x = 44....divide both sides by 4
x = 44/4
x = 11....so ur number is 11

Alice borrowed 16700 from the bank at a simple interest rate of 9% to purchase a used car.At the end of the loan,she had paid a
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alice borrowed 16700 from the bank at a simple interest rate of 9% to purchase a used car. It means that the interest is not compounded. Simple interest is usually expressed per annum. The formula for simple is

I = PRT/100

Where

I = interest

P = principal(amount borrowed from the bank)

R = 9% ( rate at which the interest is charged

T = number of years

At the end of the loan,she had paid a total of 24215. This means that the interest + the principal = 24215

Therefore,

The interest = 24215 - 16700 = 7515

Therefore

7517 = (16700 × 9 × t)/100

751700 = 150300t

T = 751700/150300

T = 5 years

Converting 5 years to months,

1 year 12 months

5 months = 12 × 5 = 60 months

Data

Alphaville       - 2x² + 500 x

Betaville         x² - 100 x + 10,000

Surplus of both towns = ?

Process

Add the surplus of both towns

Total surplus = Alphaville surplus + Betaville surplus
