Let x = John's age now
half of what johns age was 4 years ago: (1/2)(x-4)
is equal to one third of what it will be in 5 years time: (1/3)(x+5)
(1/2)(x-4) = (1/3)(x+5)
3(x-4) = 2(x+5)
3x - 12 = 2x + 10
The answer is $1,026.
Solving: Use Simple interest formula, I=Prt.
Make the rate into a decimal (1.6% -> 0.016)
plug in the numbers into the formula. 950 x 0.016 x 5 = 76$.
76$ will be our interest, now to find the balance we would have to add the the starting money (950) with our interest (76$), resulting in our answer of $1,026 after 5 years.

Answer:
25.2
Step-by-step explanation:
A calculator will evaluate this for you. If you don't have one, you can use a Google search box.
The Order of Operations tells you to start evaluation with the inner parentheses. Multiplication is performed before addition.
2(7 +2(2.8))
= 2(7 +5.6)
= 2(12.6)
= 25.2
I believe 24 because that is the makimum and the biggest box
