The formula of the Simple Interest is:
I=PRT
P for Principle Amount ($1200)
R for Rate (5%=
= 0.05)
T for Time in years (4 years)
I = 1200 × 0.05 × 4
= $240
Add the interest to the principle amount to check the balance
$1200 + $240 = $1440
Answer:
x=16
(5x + 27)° =5(16)+27=80+27=107
(5x – 7)º= 5(16)-7=80-7=73
Step-by-step explanation
supplementary angle=180
(5x + 27)° + (5x – 7)º=180
5x+27+5x-7=180
10x+20=180
10x=180-20
10x=160
x=160/10
x=16
(5x + 27)° =5(16)+27=80+27=107
(5x – 7)º= 5(16)-7=80-7=73
107+73=180
2,500 subtracted by 372 equals 2148. 2148 dollars is how much savings he has left.
9.5 because 9.5-7 is 2.5. 2.5 times 4/5 is 10/5 which is equivalent to 2. 4/5(2.5-7)=2
Answer:
m + n = 15
m - 3 = n
The numbers are 9 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
The sum of two numbers is fifteen; the first number is m and the second number is n. To translate to a system of equations, we can write that
m + n = 15 ..... (1)
Also, from the question,
One number is three less than the other,
Also, to translate to a system of equations, we can write that
m - 3 = n ...... (2)
If desired, we can determine m and n
From equation (1)
m + n = 15
Then,
m = 15 - n ...... (3)
Put the value of m in equation (3) into equation (2)
m - 3 = n
Then
15 - n - 3 = n
15 - 3 = n + n
12 = 2n
n = 12/2
∴ n = 6
For m, put the value of n into equation 3
m = 15 - n
m = 15 - 6
m = 9
∴ m = 9 and n = 6
Hence, the numbers are 9 and 6
