Not sure what the statements are but 35% of 35.50 is 12.425 and 35.50-12.425 is 23.075. So i think that would translate to $23.08

Jose receives $1270 per year from three
salantis [7]

The answer is. $1500.

Let x represent the amount invested at 5%, then  is the amount invested at 8%, and  is the amount invested at 6%. Since the total return is $1270:

let money invested at 5%= x

money invested at 6%

= 20000- (X+X-1500)

21500-2x

Total interest for 1 year.

x×5/100+ (x-1500)×8/100+(21500-2x)×6/100 = 1270

5x/100+8(x-1500)/100+(21500-2x)6/100=1270

5x+8x-12000+129000-12x = 127000

x+117000 = 127000

x = 10000

money invested at 8%

=21500-2×10000

= 1500.

Show work please<br> \sqrt(x+12)-\sqrt(2x+1)=1
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given \displaystyle\\\sqrt{x+12}-\sqrt{2x+1}=1, start by squaring both sides to work towards isolating x:

\displaystyle\\\left(\sqrt{x+12}-\sqrt{2x+1}\right)^2=\left(1\right)^2

Recall (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2 and \sqrt{a}\cdot \sqrt{b}=\sqrt{a\cdot b}:

\displaystyle\\\left(\sqrt{x+12}-\sqrt{2x+1}\right)^2=\left(1\right)^2\\\implies x+12-2\sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}+2x+1=1

Isolate the radical:

\displaystyle\\x+12-2\sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}+2x+1=1\\\implies -2\sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}=-3x-12\\\implies \sqrt{(x+12)(2x+1)}=\frac{-3x-12}{-2}

Square both sides:

\displaystyle\\(x+12)(2x+1)=\left(\frac{-3x-12}{-2}\right)^2

Expand using FOIL and (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2:

\displaystyle\\2x^2+25x+12=\frac{9}{4}x^2+18x+36

Move everything to one side to get a quadratic:

\displaystyle-\frac{1}{4}x^2+7x-24=0

Solving using the quadratic formula:

A quadratic in ax^2+bx+c has real solutions \displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}. In \displaystyle-\frac{1}{4}x^2+7x-24, assign values:

\displaystyle \\a=-\frac{1}{4}\\b=7\\c=-24

Solving yields:

\displaystyle\\x=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{7^2-4\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)\left(-24\right)}}{2\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)}\\\\x=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{25}}{-\frac{1}{2}}\\\\\begin{cases}x=\frac{-7+5}{-0.5}=\frac{-2}{-0.5}=\boxed{4}\\x=\frac{-7-5}{-0.5}=\frac{-12}{-0.5}=24 \:(\text{Extraneous})\end{cases}

Only x=4 works when plugged in the original equation. Therefore, x=24 is extraneous and the only solution is \boxed{x=4}
