2/3x + 4=6. Is that what you mean?
Answer:
$2500 - 2%
$1500 - 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Say the interest for the $2500 is x, so the interest for the $1500 is x+0.02.
As an equation, they would look like this:
2500x+1500(x+0.02)=110
Now solve
2500+1500x+30=110
4000x=80
x=0.02
That means the interest for the $2500 is 0.02, or 2%, and the interest for the $1500 is 0.04, or 4%.
Answer:
390
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of gallons of paint needed for the big room is 3x and the number of gallons of paint needed for the small room is 2y.
3x + 2y = 16
Given the sizes of the room, the relation should be that,
x = 2y
Solving the equation,
3(2y) + 2y = 16
y = 2
Therefore x is equal to 4 gallons.
With the condition that only the bigger room is painted, the number of gallons of paint used should be 12 gallons and what is left should be 4 gallons.
