Answer:so I’m trying to do the challenge and answer random questions so don’t mind me
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x in first equation:
x-2y=7
Add “2y” to both sides
x=2y+7
Put this in to second equation:
3(2y+7)+2y=21
Solve for y:
Distribute the 3 into the ()
6y+21+2y=21
Combine the like y terms
8y+21=21
Subtract 21 from both sides
8y=0
Divide by 8 on both sides
y=0
Put this into the first solved equation:
x=2(0)+7
Solve for x:
Multiple 2(0)
x=0+7
Add 0 and 7
x=7
So the value of x is positive 7.
1. 500,000
2. 1,365 1/3
3. 58,824 1/2
Answer:
honestly this is a very poorly worded question...
it can be interpreted in several different ways....
the cost of the house (for them to purchase it) was
$129,625 + $18,375 = $148,000
The total amount that they paid for the house (money spent)
was
$129,625 + $18,375 + $273,116 = $421,116
all being said I think that the $148,000 is the answer that the question
is trying for you to figure out
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential Functions:
y=ab^x
y=ab
x
a=\text{starting value = }550
a=starting value = 550
r=\text{rate = }18.8\% = 0.188
r=rate = 18.8%=0.188
\text{Exponential Decay:}
Exponential Decay:
b=1-r=1-0.188=0.812
b=1−r=1−0.188=0.812
\text{Write Exponential Function:}
Write Exponential Function:
y=550(0.812)^x
y=550(0.812)
x
Put it all together
\text{Plug in y-value:}
Plug in y-value:
60=550(0.812)^x
60=550(0.812)
x
\frac{60}{550}=\frac{550(0.812)^x}{550}
550
60
=
550
550(0.812)
x
Divide both sides by 550
0.109091=0.812^x
0.109091=0.812
x
\log 0.109091=\log 0.812^x
log0.109091=log0.812
x
Take the log of both sides
\log 0.109091=x\log 0.812
log0.109091=xlog0.812
use power rule to bring x to the front
\frac{\log 0.109091}{\log 0.812}=\frac{x\log 0.812}{\log 0.812}
log0.812
log0.109091
=
log0.812
xlog0.812
Divide both sides by log(0.812)
10.638757=x
10.638757=x
x\approx 11
x≈11
