Step-by-step explanation:
I got 12 for the answer.
You’re right, both of the pairs are similar
Ya
compound interest
A=P(1+r)^t
A=amount final
P=principal
r=rate in decimal
t=time in yers
so
interest is 9.5% or 0.095
principal is 10000
time is 3 years
A=10000(1+0.095)^3
A=10000(1.095)^3
A=13129.323
rounded
he owes $13129.32
Answer:
Number n increased by 18 = n +18
Number is 2 less than 5 times n= 5n -2
They are same => n +18 = 5n -2
Option B
[ n + 18 = 5n -2
18 +2 =5n - n
20 = 4n
n = 5
Lets check 5+18 = 5*5 - 2
23 = 23]
