The answer is B your welcome
Final amount = 6675, interest earned will be 675
They are similar. Set the proportions equal to each other
(x + 8)/8 = (x+14)/12
Cross multiply
(x + 8)/8 (8)(12) = (x + 14)/12 (12)(8)
12(x + 8) = 8(x + 14)
Distribute the 12 and 8 to the corresponding monomials inside the parenthesis
12(x + 8) = 12x + 96
8(x + 14) = 8x + 112
12x + 96 = 8x + 112
Isolate the x. Subtract 8x from both sides and 96 from both sides
12x (-8x) + 96 (-96) = 8x (-8x) + 112 (-96)
12x - 8x = 112 - 96
4x = 16
Isolate the equal sign. Divide 4 from both sides
4x/4 = 16/4
x = 16/4
x = 4

4 is your answer for x

Answer:
I tried to answer but I still would like to know what doesn't make sense.
Considering the identity:
The identity is true whenever both sides are defined. It is not supposed to hold the values when we have division by zero, because it is undefined.
If the value doesn't make sense, it is probably not a function, or it is undefined by the given value of 
.
Let's go back to the definition of function again:
A function relates a set of inputs and a set of allowable outputs where each input is related to only one output. It basically defines the relation of ordered pairs.
Hope it helped you a bit.
