8 0

Simplifying
5x + 4 = x + 44

Reorder the terms:
4 + 5x = x + 44

Reorder the terms:
4 + 5x = 44 + x

Solving
4 + 5x = 44 + x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1x' to each side of the equation.
4 + 5x + -1x = 44 + x + -1x

Combine like terms: 5x + -1x = 4x
4 + 4x = 44 + x + -1x

Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0
4 + 4x = 44 + 0
4 + 4x = 44

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + 4x = 44 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 4x = 44 + -4
4x = 44 + -4

Combine like terms: 44 + -4 = 40
4x = 40

Divide each side by '4'.
x = 10

Simplifying
x = 10

An investor invests $2,500 into a mutual fund and earns 5.75% on the principle for each of three years. How much interest has ac

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Interest in 3 years = $456.52

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know the the formula of compound interest

Total amount = $A(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Here n = number of times amount is compounded

r = rate of interest

t = period

Here A = $2500

r = 0.0575

n = 1 (compounded annually)

t = 3 years

Therefore amount after 3 years

$P=2500(1+\frac{.0575}{1})^{3}$

P =2500(1.0575)³

= 2500×1.18

= $2956.52

We have to calculate the interest then

Interest = $2956.52-$2500 = $456.52

So after 3 years interest gained = $456.52
