15x+40=115
15x+40-40=115-40
15x=75
15/15 x=75/15
x= 5
Answer: Q#1:0.26
Step-by-step explanation: just round it up
Ok, so 120 pages plus the 60% of the book she has left to read will give the total number of pages.
That means that 120 pages is 40% of the book.
Make a proportion
120/40% = x/60%
72 = .4 x
x = 180 pages
A= P(1 + r) n (n to the power of)
<span>A= final balance </span>
<span>P= initial quantity </span>
<span>n= number of compounding periods </span>
<span>r= percentage interest rate </span>
<span>P= $200 </span>
<span>n= 9 years </span>
<span>r= 5%= 0.05 </span>
<span>=$200 (1 + 0.05)9 (power of) </span>
<span>=$310.26</span>
