Sorry this got to you super late. At least others looking for the answer can find it.
Answer: x = 10 y=20
Step-by-step explanation:
You can answer this question by plugging in each equation:
2x=y, x+y=30. Let us plug y as 2x in the second equation x+y=30
x+2x= 30
3x= 30
x=10
After we found x we can then find y by plugging the 10 for x.
2(10) = y
y =20
or you could plug in the other equation
10+y=30
subtract 10 from 30 and we get 20
to double check we can plug in both numbers
2(10) = 20 which is correct
and 10 + 20 = 30 which is correct
Answer:
5.65%
Step-by-step explanation:
Principal=$600
Time=20 years
FV=600*3=$1800
n=1
r=?
r= n[(A/P)^1/nt - 1]
=1{(1800/600)^ 1/1*20 - 1}
={(3)^1/20-1}
=3^0.05-1
=1.0565-1
=0.0565
rate=0.0565*100
=5.65% to the nearest hundredth percent
Seems like a wordplay question.
A "scale" is used for measuring length.
A different sort of "scale" is used for measuring mass.
