Y +6 =(1/2)(x+4)
y +6 = 1/2 x +2
y=1/2 x - 4
or 1/2 x -y = 4
<span>If 3 is added to the number: x + 3
b) ...and the sum is tripled..
"The sum" is "x + 3" so: 3(x+3)
c) ...the result is 27 more than the number.
27 more than the number is x + 27
d) Put it all together:
3(x + 3) = x + 27
Solve for x:
1) Distribute the left side of the equation:
3x + 9 = x + 27
2) Subtract x from each side of the equation:
2x + 9 = 27
3) Subtract 9 from each side of the equation:
2x = 18
4) Solve for x:
x = 9
Check:
1) x = 9
2) 3(x + 3) = x + 27
3) 3 ([9] + 3) = [9] + 27
4) 3(12) = 9 + 27
5) 36 = 36
So, therefore The answer is correct</span>
Answer:
A) 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest rate = $3,500
Principal, p = $2,000
Time, t = 7 years
Rate, r = ?
Simple interest rate = (principal × rate × time) / 100
3,500 = (2,000 × r × 7) / 100
3,500 * 100 = 14,000r
350,000 = 14,000r
r = 350,000/14,000
r = 25%
Answer:
y= 1,300
c= 326.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Andy is 4 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Ruth age = 10
We need to find Andy age.
Let the age of Andy be x.
Also given Andy is two-fifths of Ruth's age.
Expressing the above statement in expression form we get
Hence Andy is 4 years old.
