step 1: open brackets n rmb to flip the signs
step 2 (optional): rearrange to make the equation clearer to add/minus
length of 3rd side:
(8x + 3) - (2x + 1) -(5x + 2)
= 8x + 3 - 2x -1 - 5x -2
= 8x -2x -5x +3 -1 -2
= x
Therefore, length of 3rd side is X cm.
---
If perimeter = 75cm,
8x +3 = 75
8x = 75-3
8x = 72
x = 9 cm
Therefore,
1st side = 2(9) +1
= 19 cm
2nd side = 5(9) +2
= 47 cm
3rd side = 9 cm
<span>6( 5-8x) +12= -54
30-48x+12=-54 this comes from distributing(multiplying) 6x5 and 6 times -8x
30+12-48x=-54 you have to add the coefficients 30+12
42-48x=-54
-42 -42
-----------------------
-48x=-96 divide by -48
x=2</span>
Answer:
$7153.03
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total amount after 3 years, we can use the formula for compound tax:
P = Po * (1+r/n)^(t*n)
where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate, t is the amount of time and n depends on how the tax is compounded (in this case, it is semi-annually, so n = 2)
For our problem, we have that Po = 5000, r = 12.3% = 0.123, t = 3 years and n = 2, then we can calculate P:
P = 5000 * (1 + 0.123/2)^(3*2)
P = 5000 * (1 + 0.0615)^6
P = $7153.029
Rounding to the nearest cent, we have P = $7153.03
That’s 125 times 9!!! which is 1125!!!
