The annual returns will be calculated as follows:
a] Here we use the formula:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
A=future amount
p=principle
r=returns
n=time
We are given:
A=500, p=400, t=1
Plugging the values in the formula we obtain:
500=400(1+r)^1
simplifying and solving for r:
1.25=1+r
thus
r=1.25-1
r=0.25~25%
b] Using the formula above:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
A=2500+100=2600, p=2000, n=1 year
plugging the values in the equation we obtain:
2600=2000(1+r)^1
simplifying and solving for r we obtain:
2600/2000=1+r
1.3=1+r
hence
r=1.3-1
r=0.3~30%
X = 3 and x = 4 will make the polynomial = 0
answer
C. 3 and 4
Answer:
80 lemons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of lemons that were on the tree.
We can use this to set up an equation:

Note that percentages can also be written as that number over 100.

Simplify the fraction.

Multiply both sides by 5

Divide both sides by 2

There were 80 lemons on the tree before he picked the lemons.
