I believe your answer is 8 :)
<u>The answer is A. Multiply both sides of the top equation by 2</u>
So since we know that 4 × 2 = 8, it would only make sense to multiply both sides by 2 so that the top equation has the x coefficient be 8.
The amount invested at 11% is $5,000
The amount invested in stock is $14,000
What is the net profit on both investments?
The profit of each investment is the rate of return or loss multiplied by the amount invested
Let us assume that x was invested at 11% and the remaining 19000-x was invested at a loss rate of 3%
net profit=(11%*x)+(19000-x)*-3%
net profit=130
130=(11%*x)+(19000-x)*-3%
130=0.11x-570+0.03x
130=0.14x-570
130+570=0.14x
700=0.14x
x=700/0.14
x=$5,000
Amount invested in stock=19000-x
Amount invested in stocks=19000-5000
Amount invested in stocks=$14,000

Let his total money be x.
He spent (3/7)*x of his money.
He gave 1/4(x-3/7x) to his sister.
which is : (1/4)*(4/7)*x = (1/7)*x
Now,
How much money he have in the beginning =
(3/7)*x+(1/7)*x+120=x
(4/7)*x+120=x
120=x-(4/7)*x
120=(3/7)*x
x=120*7/3 [cross multiplication]
x=280.
So, Alex had $280 in the beginning.
