15x + 2 = 45x + 4
Subtract 2 from both sides, as well as subtracting 45x from both sides.
15x - 45x = 4 - 2
-30x = 2
Divide both sides by -30.
x = 2/-30
x = - 1/15

Part 1: <span>What is the periodic interest rate of jade investment?
Each compounding period is done semi-annually, which means twice a year. Since the given interest rate is annual, then 5.2% divided by half should yield the period interest rate, which is 2.6%
Part 2: </span><span>How many compounding periods does Jade's investment offer in a year? how about in 8 years?
In 1 year, there are 2 compounding periods. In 2 years, there are 16 compounding periods.</span>
Jk= 18
Kl= 10
3x - 2 = 28
+2. +2
3x / 3 and 30 / 3 = 10
28-10 = 18
Your answer is going to be 23/22
