Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+2=8
<em>Subtract 2 from both sides</em>
3x=6
<em>Divide both sides by 3</em>
x=2
My favorite strategy is the criss cross method.

Take the numerator of the first fraction (2), and the denominator of the second fraction (8) and multiply them. The value 16 is now up on the left side, imaginary. (ALWAYS PUT THE PRODUCT ON THE SIDE WITH THE NUMERATOR) Now multiply the other diagonal. 3(7)=21. The 21 is on the right side. Now do 16 ? 21
Is it <, >, or =? The answer is <
Answer:
R = 0.8333%/month
(R = 9.9996%/year)
Equation:
r = (1/t)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
Solving your equation:
r = (1/4)((8267.7/8001) - 1) = 0.00833333
r = 0.00833333
Converting r decimal to R a percentage
R = 0.00833333 * 100 = 0.8333%/month
Calculating the annual rate
0.8333%/month × 12 months/year = 9.9996%/year.
The interest rate required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $8,267.70 from simple interest on a principal of $8,001.00 over 0.333333 years (4 months) is 0.8333% per month.
Equation: 24•x=72 represents this :)
Answer:
y = x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that when x increases from zero (0) to 5, an increase of 5 units, y increases from -5 to 0, an increase of 5 units.
Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 5/5 = 1.
The y-intercept is clearly discernable and is (0, -5).
Thus, using the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:
y = 1x - 5, or just y = x - 5.
