How do you solve a proof?

Mathematics

To solve a proof, you need to distinguish which is the hypothesis and which is the conclusion. The hypothesis is the starting point and the conclusion is the ending point. We go from hypothesis to conclusion. A conditional statement can be written as If A, then B. Where A is the hypothesis and B is the conclusion.

For example, take this theorem.

If two sides of a triangle<span> are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent.
</span>
We go from Two sides of a triangle are congruent to the angles opposite those sides are congruent.

The first statement's reason is pretty much always Given.
 
                                                         Statement | Reason
1. Two sides of a triangle are congruent         1. Given
....                                                                        After a bunch of steps
3. the angles opposite those sides are congruent. 3. Your postulate of definition of what reason you need to complete the last step.

Sorry if this is a little confusing.

I have $3,800 in two accounts for one year. The first account earns a yearly interest of 3.5%. The second account earns a yearly
loris [4]

Answer:

-$1000

Step-by-step explanation:

(3800 - x)*3.5/100 = (3800 + x)*6/100

(3800 - x)7/200 = 3/50(3800 + x)

3800 - x = 12/7(3800 + x)

3800 - x = 45600/7 + 12x/7

(19x + 19000)/7 = 0

19x = -19000

x = -$1000.

The minus implies that the investment must occur in the first account, not the second. It wouldn't make sense to add more money into the second account, because the second account already exceeds the $188 interest with the amount it has in there. Therefore $1000 must be added from the second account and invested into the first.
