Answer:

2/3x - 3 = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number

2/3x - 3 = 5

Add 3 to each side

2/3x-3+3 = 5+3

2/3x = 8

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2*2/3x = 8*3/2

x = 12

tangare [24]

Answer:

13.86

Step-by-step explanation:

formula for cont. compounding interest is

Amount = Principal * e^rt

in this case the principal is 5000, and the amount is 10000 (double). the rate is 5% or 0.05. and t is what we are solving for.

sub in to get:

10000 = 5000e^0.05t

2 = e^0.05t

now convert to log form.

ln 2 = 0.05t

ln 2 / 0.05 = t

punch that into your calculator and you get 13.86 years

__

Each trapezoid will have an area of ...

  A = 1/2(15 +4)(6) = 57 . . . . square meters

The figure's area is twice that, so is ...

  figure area = 2 × 57 m² = 114 m²
