Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply each side by 6x.
4x+x = 30
Square both sides.
16x^2+3x^2=900 = 19x^2
x^2= about
x=6.9
What does 1/4 X plus 3/4 equal

Answer:
8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Tim's account balance has an initial value of $6400 and is multiplied yearly by the factor 1.01. Thus, it can be described by the exponential equation ...
b = 6400·1.01^t
where b is the balance after t years.
Putting in the desired balance, we can find t.
6900 = 6400·1.01^t
1.078125 = 1.01^t . . . . . divide by 6400
log(1.078125) = t·log(1.01) . . . . take the logarithm of both sides
log(1.078125)/log(1.01) = t ≈ 7.56 ≈ 8 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
It will take Tim approximately 8 years to reach a balance of $6900.
