600000 is 1/10 of "x", that means x = 10/10 or a whole, what is "x"?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&fraction\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
600000&\frac{1}{10}\\\\
x&\frac{10}{10}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{600000}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{10}}{\frac{10}{10}}\implies \cfrac{600000}{x}=\cfrac{1}{10}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{600000\cdot 10}{1}=x$

How to set up this problem

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The son is five years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the son's age be x

A man is five as old as his son, 5x

In five years, he would be three times as old as his son

In five years: son would be x+5

Father 5x+5

3(x+5)=5x+5

3x+15=5x+5

Collect like terms

15-5=5x-3x

10=2x

Divide by 2

10/2=2x/2

x=5

How much less would a 23-year-old female pay for a $25,000 policy of 20 year life insurance (@ $2.90 per $1000) than straight li

mojhsa [17]

<u>Answer</u>:

The female would pay $322.00 less for a policy of $25,000

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since we have given that

Amount for policy = $25000

If she opt for 20 year life insurance at $2.90 per $1000.

so, her amount of premium becomes

$25000\times \frac{2.9}{1000}$

=$72.50

If she opt for straight life insurance at $15.78 per $1000,

Then, her amount of premium becomes

$25000 \times \frac{15.78}{1000}$

= $394.50

Difference between them is given by

$394.50-$72.5 = $322.00
