I'm going to refer to the length of the pool as L.
2x + 2L = perimeter.
The width of pool multiplied by two added to the length of the pool multiplied by two equals to the perimeter.
Given that Amistad deposited $2,163.27 in a savings account that earns 3.9% simple interest.
That means we need to use Simple interest formula to find the Amistad's account balance in nine months.
Simple interest formula is
A=P(1+RT)
Where P= principal amount = $2163.27
R= rate of interest = 3.9%= 0.039
T= time in years = 9 months = 9/12 years = 0.75
Now plug these values into above formula:
A=2163.27(1+0.039* 0.75)
A=2163.27(1+0.02925)
A=2163.27(1.02925)
A=2226.5456475
Hence Amistad's account balance in nine months will be approx $2226.55
5(2x+8)-5x=5(5x+6)
Distribute
10x+40-5x=25x+30
combine like terms
5x+40=25x+30
-5x -5x
subtract 5x from both sides
40=20x+30
-30 -30
subtract 30 from both sides
10=20x
÷20 ÷20
divide both sides by 20
1/2=x is your final answer
As the front approaches, you will have a storm.
I hope this helps!
