The simplest form of an interest equation is A = P(1+rt)
where A = the total amount of money at the end, P = the principal (or amount of money you started with), r = the rate in percent, and t = the time in years.
In this case, P = 15000, r = 0.03 (because 3% in decimal form is 0.03), and t = 1:

So, after 1 year he will get $15450 back, making him $450 more.
Answer:
(C) 4|5 -2x| > 68
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve each of the inequalities to see if their solutions match the given numbers, or you can start with the given numbers and see what sort of inequality you end up with.
If you plot the given "solution" on a number line, you find that the numbers -6 and 11 are the same distance from x=2.5. That distance is 8.5 units. (One way to deterimine this is to average -6 and 11, then subtract that average from 11 to find the distance.
So, we can write an inequality describing values of x that are more than 8.5 units from 2.5:
|x -2.5| > 8.5
and it will have the solution x < -6 or x > 11.
Multiplying this by 2, it can become ...
|2x -5| > 17
Of course, since the absolute value function doesn't care whether its argument is positive or negative, we can also write this as ...
|5 -2x| > 17
This tells you right away which answer choice is appropriate. Further confirmation can be had by multiplying this by 4:
4|5 -2x| > 68 . . . . . . matches selection C

Answer:
By a quick online search, i found two tape diagrams:
13) You: -
Friend: - -
So you have one block, and your friend has two.
We know that you work for 3 hours, this means that your only block must represent 3 hours.
And all the blocks represent the same amount of time, then each one of the two blocks of your friend also represents 3 hours.
Then in total, he tutored for 3 hours + 3 hours = 6 hours.
14) You: -
Friend: - - - - -
In this case, you still have only one block, but now your friend has 5.
Using the same reasoning as above, we can conclude that each block represents 3 hours, and your friend has 5 of them, this means that he tutored for:
5*3 hours = 15 hours
Answer:
No solution. Reason is because both x and y will be eliminated
