You divide both numbers by the greatest common factor, which in this case is the number 8 so the equation would look some what like this
16/8=2
8/8=1
The ratio is 2:1
D. $8,962.50
P stands for principal
R stands for rate
T stands for time
A=$7,500(1+ (0.039×5))=$8,962.5
A=$8,962.50
So Jake will have $8,962.50 of interest after 5 years.
Separate into two inequalities.
1x < 3
1x > -15
Solve for x.
x < 3
x > -15
