If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.
It’s 7 in that’s the only answer that makes sense
Answer:
$240
Step-by-step explanation:
I = prt
I = (2,400) (0.04) (2.5)
note: I changed 4% to a decimal and 30 months to 2.5 years
I = 96 (2.5)
I = 240 <-- The interest
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The simple interest accumulated on a principal of $ 2,400.00 at a rate of 4% per year for 2.5 years (30 months) is $240.00.

* Last time I did interest was in 6th grade and I don't remember much. So I am very sorry if my answer is wrong *
Answer:
B=55
Step-by-step explanation:

B=55

<u>Mona starts from 68th stone</u>
<u>She jumps</u><u> </u><u>23</u><u> </u><u>stones</u><u> </u><u>ahead</u><u> </u>
<u>Then</u><u> </u><u>she</u><u> </u><u>jumps</u><u> </u><u>28</u><u> </u><u>stones</u><u> </u><u>back</u>

<em>Her final position=?</em>




- To find how much stones she is ahead or back we will Subtract 63 from 68 which was her initial position.

So, Mona will be <em><u>5</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>stones</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>behind</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>from</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>starting</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>stone</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>
☯️Hence, Option C is correct
