Linear equations
Sometimes we need to know the value of a variable in a given equation and that variable is given as a polynomial of degree 1. Solving for that variable means isolating it and replacing the other known values
Steven was 7 years old eight and one-half years ago. If we call x as the actual age of Steven, his age eight and one-half years ago was
We know he was 7 years old then, so
We need to know his actual age, so let's solve for x, adding to each side of the equation
Simplifying
Steven is 15 and one half years old now

<u>Compound Interest Formula</u>
where:
- A = final amount
- P = principal amount
- r = interest rate (in decimal form)
- n = number of times interest applied per time period
- t = number of time periods elapsed
Given:
- A = $17,474.00
- P = $7,790.00
- r = 15% = 0.15
- n = 12
- t = number of years
Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for t:
Therefore, the money was in the account for 5 years and 5 months (to the nearest month).
