Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

8(7x-2)=96

7x-2 = 96 : 8

7x-2 = 12

7x = 12 +2

7x = 14

x = 14 : 7

x = 2

P=A/(1+i/m)^mn
P=20000/(1+0.09/12)^12*4
P=(20,000)÷(1+0.09÷12)^(12×4)

Two students were given the expression shown to simplify.

navik [9.2K]

<h3>The equivalent expression is 6 + 6x</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

9 - (3 - 6x)

We have to find the equivalent expression

Use the distributive property,

a(b + c) = ab + bc

Therefore, from given expression,

$9 - 1(3 - 6x) = 9 - 3 + 6x$

Combine the constants, 9 - 3 = 6

$9 - 1(3 - 6x) = 6 + 6x$

Thus the equivalent expression is 6 + 6x

The difference between $0.20 and $0.60 is: 0.60 - 0.20 = $0.40

The rate of change in 4 years is $0.40
The rate of change in 1 year is $0.10
