7.7m is more precise because it has a decimal after it
4(x + 7) = 38
Since there is no operation sign between the 4 and parenthesis, it makes it an automatic multiplication problem.
You would use distributive property to multiply each which should leave your equation looking like this afterwards:
4x + 28 = 38
(4 times x and 4 times 7)
You would then solve it like a two step equation,
1. +28 - 28 = 0
2. 38 - 28 = 10
4x = 10
10 divided by 4 = 2.5
x = 2.5
We can recheck our work by substituting in the value of x.
4(2.5 + 7) = 38
10 + 28 = 38
When we substituted in the value, it gave us the correct inequality.
Therefore,
x = 2.5
Answer:
Hi i think that the answer is A
Answer: If the time is 3 1/2 years (most reasonable assumption)
Her initial deposit was $160
Step-by-step explanation: The basic formula for simple interest is
<em>i = prt i </em>is interest, P is principal (deposit) r is the percentage (converted to a decimal) and t is time, the number of years.
For this question, you have to rearrange the equation to solve for p.
So divide both sides by rt and you have
p = i/rt
Substitute the values given
p = 36.40/(0.065)(3.5)
