A-2=-1 + 2a-4-1<br><br> send me the work please! (solving equations with variables on both sides)
Vladimir [108]

The value of "a" is 4

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

a - 2  = -1 + 2a - 4-1

The above expression involves variables and constants

A variable is a symbol that represents an unknown number

Here the variable is "a"

Constants are fixed numbers like 1, 2 etc

<em><u>From given expression:</u></em>

a - 2  = -1 + 2a - 4-1

Move the varibale "2a" from right side to left side of equation

When, 2a is moved from R.H.S to L.H.S, it becomes -2a

a -2a - 2 = -1 -4-1

Now move the constant -2 from left side to right side of equation

Similarly, when -2 is moved from L.H.S to R.H.S, it becomes +2

a-2a = -1-4-1+2

Now add the variables on left side of equation

-a = -1-4-1+2

Now add the constants on right side of equation

-a = -6+2\\\\-a = -4

Cancel the negative sign on both sides of equation

a=4

Thus the value of "a" is 4

Sung Lee invests $4,000 at age 18. He hopes the investment will be worth $16,000 when he turns 25. If the interest compounds con
irinina [24]

Answer:

The growth rate he needs to achieve his goal is approximatelly 19.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sum will be compounded continuously we have to use the appropriate formula given below:

M = C*e^(r*t)

Where "M" is the final amount, C is the initial amount, r is the interest rate and t is the time elapsed. Since Sung Lee will invest that sum at 18 years old and he wants to recieve the return at 25, then the time elapsed is given by 25 -18 = 7 years. We can now apply the data to the formula:

16000 = 4000*e^(r*7)

4000*e^(7*r) = 16000

e^(7*r) = 16000/4000 = 4

ln[e^(7*r)] = ln(4)

7*r = ln(4)

r = ln(4)/7 = 0.198

The rate of interest is given by (r)*100%, so we have (0.198)*100% = 19.8%.

70:
13 is change to 15
13 plus 2 is 15
17 plus 2 is 19
I am 100% sure for question 69, but for question 70 im 100% unsure.

The volumes of two similar square pyramids is 128 and 250 meters respectively. The side length of the smaller pyramid is 8 meter
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Height of bigger square pyramid = 3.072 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Using equivalent ratios to find the side of the bigger square prism

128:8 = 250:X

X = (250 x 8) ÷ 128 = 15.625

Volume of a square pyramid = a x a x h/3

Hence to evaluate the height

250 = 15.625 x 15.625 x h/3

H = 3.072 meters
