Answer:
x = -34.8
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2><u>solve the equation</u></h2>
2(x-3)
= 2x - 6
7(x + 24 )
= 7x + 168
put the equation together
2x - 6 = 7x + 168
now make x subject of formula:
2x - 7x = 168 +6
-5x = 174
x = 174/ -5
<h3><u>x = -34.8 </u></h3>
A=futurer amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
n=number of times compounded per year
t=time in years
A=2500
r=0.05
n=2
t=2
divide both sides by [tex} 1.025^{4} [/tex]
2264.88=P
he should invest
$2264.88
28 because there’s 4 sides to a square and 4 times 7 is 28
Answer:
(a) -20 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The proportion can be solved using "cross multiply" as the first step. This eliminates the fractions and turns it into a linear equation.
2/7 = -5/(x +3) . . . . . given
2(x +3) = -35 . . . . . . multiply by 7(x +3)
2x = -41 . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 6
x = -20 1/2 . . . . . . divide by 2
