12x - 13 - x - 9 + 10x
First, get the like terms together
12x + 10x - x -13 -9
Now, combine like terms
12x + 10x - x = 21x
-13 - 9 = -22
Final Answer:
21x - 22
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount invested with 5% interest be x
Therefore, the amount invested with 6% interest will be (6000-x)
It is given that the total interest earned yearly is $337.5. Thus, the equation of interest will be:
Multiplying both sides by 100 we get:
Subtracting both sides by 36000 we get:
Thus, the amount invested at 5% is $2250
Therefore, the amount invested at 6% will be $(6000-2250)=$3750
Answer:
460/11, rounded to 41.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that our number is x. The first part states that we decrease 3/4 of a number by 18. Therefore, we find (3/4) of x and subtract that by 18, or (3/4)x-18. That is then equal to increasing (1/5) of x by 5, or (1/5)x+5. Our equation is then (3/4)x-18=(1/5)x + 5.
Adding 18 to both sides, we get (3/4)x = (1/5)x + 23.
Multiplying both sides by 5 and 4 (or 20 as a whole) to remove the denominators, we get that 15x=4x + 460. Subtracting both sides by 4x, we get that 11x=460, and dividing both sides by 11, our answer is rounded to 41.8 (or just 460/11)
