So u turn the percent into a decimal.
0.10
Now multiply 1200 * 0.10
1200*0.10= 120 ( 120 is the amount that is gonna increase)
So if it says 5 years, than your gonna multiply 120 * 5
120*5 =600
So your gonna add 600 to 1200.
So in five years your gonna be making 1,800.
An easier way would be to use prt
Principle * rate * time
1200 * 0.10* 5
= 600
So now you just add 600 to 1200
= 1800
Answer: 38.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Add all the numbers together and divide the sum by how many numbers there are.
Given
Rob is twice Joshua's age
Nick is 5 years older than Joshua.
sum of all their ages is 45.
Find the age of nick.
To proof
As given
Rob is twice Joshua's age
let Joshua's age = x
than Rob age = 2x
Nick is 5 years older than Joshua.
Nick age = 5 + x
sum of all their ages is 45
than the equation becomes
Joshua's age + Rob age + Nick age = 45
put the value
x + 2x + 5 + x = 45
4x = 40
x = 10
Joshua's age = 10 year
than Rob age = 20 year
Nick age = 5 + 10
= 15year
Hence proved
