Use this equation to solve the problem:
x - (x * .25) = 40
This equation is saying the original price times itself by 25% is 40.
x - (x * .25) = 40
Simplify.
x - .25x = 40
.75x = 40
Divide both sides by .75.
x = 53.33
The original price was $53.33
the standard equation of the circle having the given center and radius is

$390 is the interest will Charlie’s initial investment earn over the 15-year period. The money does Charlie have after the 15 years is $715.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Harlie invests $325 in an account.
- Principal, P = $325
- Interest rate, r = 8% ⇒ 0.08
- Number of years, t = 15
<u>The formula to find the interest will Charlie’s initial investment earn over the 15-year period :</u>
⇒
<u></u>
⇒ 
⇒ 
Therefore, $390 is the interest will Charlie’s initial investment earn over the 15-year period.
<u>Money Charlie has after 15 years :</u>
It is given by the formula,
⇒ Amount = Principal + Interest.
⇒ 325 + 390
⇒ 715 dollars.
∴ The money does Charlie have after the 15 years is $715.
Yes and no. A negative number and it's opposite are 'integers.' Yes, a negative and a negative multiplied together give you a positive. The two negative signs cancel out making it positive. But no, a positive and a positive multiplied together do not give you a negative. When you subtract positive numbers you can get a negative, but not when multiplying. If you were to do a positive times a negative it would be negative because the positive can't cancel it out. Example: -3 · -3 = 9. [] 3 · 3 = 9. [] -3 · 3 = -9. Other than the positive number part, the statement is true about the negatives. I hope that helped!
