The pattern is subtracting 9
I think the answer is 17/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3 ( p + 4 ) = 48
3p + 12 = 48
3p = 48 - 12
3p = 36
p = 36 ÷ 3
p = 12...
If 36 is 80% ( a piece) of a number. that means the number must be higher than 36
Changing the English to math:
36 = 80% x n (n being the number)
36= .8n (changed the percent to a decimal by moving it back two places
<u>36</u> = <u>.8</u>n
.8 .8 I divided both sides by .8 - when you divide a number by a decimal (less than one) the number will become larger.
The answer is 45
The equation for simple interest is sated as follows:
A=P(1+rt), where A= The accrued amount, P=Principal invested, r=interest rate per year, and t=time in years.
For the amount invested to be atleast double the amount invested (like the current scenario), the inequality would be would be
A≥ P(1+rt) ---- 200≥100 (1+0.05t) ---- 2≥1+0.05t --- t≥(2-1)/0.05 --- t≥20 years
Therefore, for the amount to atleast double, $100 should be invested for atleast 20 years.
