1.8 minus 3.7 x = negative 4.2 x + 0.3?
AVprozaik [17]
Combine like terms. First, add 4.2x to both sides. This results in 1.8+0.5x = 0.3, and then 0.5x = 0.3-1.8.

Next, 0.05x = -1.5, or 5x = -150, and x = -30.

Must check this result by substitution of -30 for x in the original equation.

Is 1.8-3.7(-30)=-4.2(-30)+0.3 true or false?

Luden [163]

Answer:

You need to invest at a continuous compound interest rate of 6.701355026%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to use is the compound interest formula:A=P(1+r/100)^t

where A=Total amount at the end of the investment period

P=Principal amount

R=Rate of interest

T=Investment tenor/time

Now,

350,000=50000(1+r/100)^30 is what needs to be simplified to 6.701355026%
