Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x = 7/8

Discussion:

3[x + 3(4x – 5)] = 15x – 24 =>

3x + (3*3)(4x-5) = 15x - 24  =>

3x + 9*(4x) - (3*3)*5 = 15x - 24 =>

3x + 36x  - 45 = 15x - 24  =>   (add 24 to each side)

3x + 36x - 45 + 45 = 15x - 24 + 45 =>

39x = 15x + 21  =>                    (as 45-24 = 21)

39x-15x = 21 =>                        (subtract 15x from both sides)

24x = 21 =>

x = 21/24 = -7/8

P.S.  I'll be on vacation from Friday, Dec 22 to Jan 2, 2019. Have a Great New Year!

cluponka [151]
She started with x.
After 1 year, she had 1.025x.
She withdrew <span>£1000, so now she has 1.025x - 1000.
Then it earned interest for 1 year and ended up as </span>1.025(1.025x - 1000).
The actual amount of money was £23 517.60.
Therefore,

<span>1.025(1.025x - 1000) = 23517.60

1.025x - 1000 = 22 944

1.025x = 23 944

x = 23 360

liq [111]

Answer:

  ∂u/∂xi = i·cos(sn)

Step-by-step explanation:

For u = sin(v), the partial derivative of u with respect to xi is ...

  ∂u/∂xi = cos(v)·∂v/xi

In this case, v=sn, and ∂sn/∂xi = i, so the derivatives of interest are ...

  ∂u/∂xi = i·cos(sn)
