(trying to isolate/get x by itself in the equation)
5(x + 6) = 50 Distributive property [distribute 5 into (x + 6)]
5x + 30 = 50 Subtraction [subtract 30 on both sides of the equation]
5x = 20 Division [divide 5 on both sides]
x = 4
Subtraction then division, the 2nd option
Answer:
SI = $1,200 ; A = $6,200
Step-by-step explanation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year,
then, solving our equation
I = 5000 × 0.03 × 8 = 1200
I = $ 1,200.00
The simple interest accumulated
on a principal of $ 5,000.00
at a rate of 3% per year
for 8 years is $ 1,200.00.
Answerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr isssssssss: 5.38
If the answer can be left in a fraction than this is the solution: 2×5/8=5/4
5/4-1/3=11/12
if you mean the answer must be left in a whole number than.. I don't really know how to do it
