Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount invested at 6%. Then the amount invested at 12% is 4x+249. Sherrie's interest is ...
0.06x +0.12(4x +249) = 988.92
0.54x + 29.88 = 988.92
0.54x = 959.04
x = 959.04/0.54 = 1776
4x+249 = 7353
__
Sherrie invested $1776 at 6% and $7353 at 12%.
Answer:
-2 and 21/50
Step-by-step explanation:
PEMDAS says that paranthases go first, so we solve 2 and 1/5 minus 33/12. 2 and 1/5 simplifies to the improper fraction, 11/5. Then we find a common denominater between 11/5 and 33/12 to get 60. 11/5=132/60, and 33/12=165/60. (132/60)-(165/60)=-33/60. Then we multipl that by 4 and 2/5, which can simplify to the improper fraction, 22/5. (22/5)*(-33/60) is -726/300, and simplifies to -2 and 21/50. Hope this helps!
Expand the brackets first
5(wx-v) = 9(x + v)
5wx - 5v = 9x + 9v
Get all x's on one side and everything on on the other side
9x - 5wx = 9v + 5v
factorise out the x
x(9-5w) = 14v
then divide by 9-5w
x = 14v/(9-5w)
Answer:
3x + 2 < –7 or 3x + 2 > 7
