A 50% increase is just taking the original amount and adding half of that towards the amount.
Example : 50% of 100 is 50 so a 50% increase to 100 would be 150
a formula for this would be X + (1/2×X) = Y
in your case we're working backwards with the known being 60
We can just plug in reasonable values for X until we get 60
50% of 40 is 20
40 + 20 = 60
so the original amount was 40
1. 25,500
24000 * .6 = 1440
24000 + 1440 = 25440
Answer:
$4,881.56
Step-by-step explanation:
The future value formula is ...
FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)
where principal P is invested at annual rate r compounded n times per year for t years.
You have P=3300, n=12, r=0.028, t=14, so the future value is ...
FV = $3300(1 +0.028/12)^(12·14) = $4881.56
There would be $4881.56 in the account after 14 years.
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. Let's call the games won 
and the games lost 
.
2. Then, based on the information give in the problem, you can make the following system of equations:
3. You can use the Substitution method. You must substitute 
into the second equation and solve for :
3. Now substitute this values obtained into the first equation and solve for :
The answer is: The team won 40 games and lost 42 games.
