Answer:

x=\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{We're given the following:}\\-4(3x-2)=6x+2\\\\\text{First, let's distribute the -4:}\\-12x+8=6x+2\\+12x\qquad+12x\\\\\text{That gives us:}\\8=18x+2\\-2\qquad-2\\6=18x\\\\\text{Now divide both sides by 18:}\\\frac{6}{18}=x\\\\\text{And simplify the fraction:}\\x=\frac{1}{3}

Answer:

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3x − 2) = 6x + 2

Distribute

-12x +8 = 6x +2

Add 12x to each side

12x-12x+8 = 6x+2+12x

8 = 18x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

8-2 = 18x+2-2

6 = 18x

Divide each side by 18

6/18 = 18x/18

1/3 =x

Jason’s savings account has a balance of $2179. After 5 years , what will the amount of interest be at 6% compounded quarterly?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

$755.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the compound amount first and then subtract the principal from it, to find the amount of interest.

The compound amount formula is A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt), where

P is the initial principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, n is the number of compounding periods per year, and t is the number of years.  Here, P = $2179; t = 5 yrs; r = 0.06; and n = 4 (quarterly compounding).

We get:

A = $2179(1 + 0.06/4)^(4*5), or $2179(1.015)^20, or $2179(1.347) = $2937.80.

The compound amount is $2934.80.  Subtracting the $2179 principal results in the interest earned:  $755.80.

Answer:

Nicole should take 13 1/8 cups of snack mix.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a serving size is 7/8 and Nicole wants to take 15 serving sizes (15 7/8's), then we must multiply 7/8 by 15:

15 × 7/8

Write 15 over 1 (15 = 15/1) to make the calculations easier:

15/1 × 7/8

Multiply the numerators and denominators separately:

15 × 7 / 1 × 8

105 / 8

Instructions don't say you have to do this but I will convert this improper fraction into a mixed number:

105/8 = 13 1/8
