Answer:

2550

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming the interest is annual.

so this is breaking the 6000 into two parts, I am going to call them A and B.  i will say A is invsted at 4% and B is invested at 6%

It then tells us the amount of interest gaied from B is $15 more than the interest gained from A.  We basically use a system of equations.

A + B = 6000

.06B - .04A = 15

Let me know if you don't see how I got these equations.  I will go ahead and solve.

A + B = 6000

Gonna solve for A so I can plug it into the other eqaution and solve for B, which is what the question is asking for.  You can get both either way though.

A = 6000 - B

Plug this into the other equation.

.06B - .04A = 15

.06B - .04(6000 - B) = 15

.06B - 240 + .04B = 15

.1B = 255

B = 2550

this means A is 3450.  You can check by seeing what theinterest is for each.  

2550*.06 = 153

3450*.04 = 138

153 is 15 more than 138 so everything checks out.

Answer:

x= 200

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

1/5 x - 2/3 y = 30

The value of y is 15

Put the value of y in the given equation:

1/5 x - 2/3(15) = 30

1/5 x- 10 = 30

Take the L.C.M of the denominator

x-50/5 = 30

Move the denominator to the R.H.S

x-50 = 30*5

x-50 = 150

Combine the like terms

x= 150+50

x = 200

The value of x is 200...
