We can assign the value "2x" as the amount of money that Amelia which to achieve in twelve years.
So, his initial money is X.
We can try each percent to test if it could double the amount in 12 years.
x+0.06*12years*x=1.72X
x+0.12*12*x=1.44x
x+0.1*12*x=2.2x
x+0.166*12*x=2.992x
Therefore, the answer is 10 percent.
Have you used the length*width*height?
Let no. of pens be x.
Pens : x
Pencils: x+8
Total: 2x+8
Student takes 1 pen and 5 pencils.
Remainder: 2x+8 - 5 -1 = 2x+2
2x+2 = 26
2x= 24
x = 12 (original no. of pens)
x+ 8 = 20 (original no of pencils)
There are 12 pens at first and 20 pencils.
After 1 pen is taken, 11 pens are left.
After 5 pencils are taken, 20-5=15 pencils are left.
1.15¹⁰=4.0456, the growth rate, so the increase is 3.0456 or 305%.
