The definition of 2 is 1+1 and the definition of 4 is 1+1+1+1.
Now "+" is transitive such that the addition 1+1+1+1 can be broken down as 1+(1+1+1) or as (1+1)+(1+1) indifferently, which is 2+2 =4

You have 2+2 in each 2 there are 1's so

2=(1+1) 2=(1+1) =4
4=1+1+1+1
2+2=4
think of 2's as 1's when adding did you know 2x2= 4 as well.

3(9x-9)=16+3(-2x+9) please help me

Maru [420]

3(9x-9)=16+3(-2x+9)
27x - 27 = 16 - 6x + 27
27x + 6x = 16 + 27 + 27
33x = 70
x = 70/33
x = 2 4/33

In short, Your Answer would be 70/33 or 2 4/33

Hope this helps!

If a bank has total deposits of $7,200 and reserves of $1,600: instructions: round to the nearest whole number. (a) what is its

Serjik [45]

A.) The current reserve ratio is given by the fraction of the bank's total deposits held in reserves.
Given that the bank's total deposits is $7,200 and the reserves is $1,600, the current reserve ratio is given by:

$\frac{1,600}{7,200} \times100\%=22\%.$

b.) The loan portfolio is given by (total deposit - reserves) / total deposits

Thus, the loan portfolio of the given bank is given by:

$\frac{7,200-1,600}{7,200} \times100\%= \frac{5,600}{7,200} \times100\% \\ \\ =78\%$

A sporting goods store is having a 15% off sale on all items. Which functions can be used to find the sale price of an item that

asambeis [7]

The answers are:
ƒ(x) = x - .15x
Sale = Original - .15(Original)
y = .85x

Let sale price be f(x) and x be the original price. Discount was 15% = 0.15
f(x) = x - 0.15x

If f(x) is sale and x is the original, then:
Sale = Original - .15(Original)

Let sale price be y and original price x:
y = x - 0.15x
y = 1 * x - 0.15 * x
y = (1 - 0.15) * x
y = 0.85x
