First reduce the fraction so your equation looks like this:

2/27=x/36

Now cross multiply to simplify

72=27x

Now change sides

27x=72

Now divide both sides by 27

X= 8/3

Now you are left with your answer:

x= 8/3

Hope this helps! :3

Phyllis invested $10,500 a portion earning a simple interest rate of 9(1/5)% per year and the rest earning a rate of 9% per year

Alenkinab [10]

Total investment = $10,500

Let x = amount of first investment, and y the amount of the second investment.

First investment:
Interest rate = 9 (1/5)% = 0.092
Earned interest = 0.092x

Second investment:
Interest rate = 9% = 0.09
Earned interest = 0.09y

Total interest after one year is $957.00, therefore
0.092x + 0.09y = 957
or
1.0222x + y = 10633.33 (1)

Also,
x + y = 10500 (2)

Subtract (2) from (1).
0.0222x = 133.33
x = 6000
y = 10500 - x = 4500

Answer:
The first investment is $6,000 at 9 (1/5)% rate;
The second investment is $4,500 at 9% rate.

A local charity sponsors a 5K race to raise money. It receives $25 per race entry and $5,000 in donations, but it must spend $5

kenny6666 [7]

they receive 25 per entry but 5 goes towards the cost of the race

so 25-5 = 20 per entry is for the charity

so 20x + 5000 = 25000

subtract 5000 from each side

20x= 20000

divide both sides by 20

x = 20000/ 20

x = 1000
