Hi,

x/2 = 2x - 3

x/2 - 2x = - 3

x = 3 /(3/2)

x = 3 * 2/3 = 2

The number is 2.

Kathryn deposits 100 into an account at the beggining of each 4 year period for 40 years. The account credits interest at an eff
OleMash [197]

Answer:

6194.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating accumulated annuity amount

F = P × ([1 + I]^N - 1 )/I

Where P is the payment amount. I is equal to the interest (discount) rate and N number of duration

For 40 years,

X = 100[(1 + i)^40 + (1 + i)^36 + · · ·+ (1 + i)^4]

=[100 × (1+i)^4 × (1 - (1 + i)^40]/1 − (1 + i)^4

For 20 years,

Y = A(20) = 100[(1+i)^20+(1+i)^16+· · ·+(1+i)^4]

Using X = 5Y (5 times the accumulated amount in the account at the ned of 20 years) and using a difference of squares on the left side gives

1 + (1 + i)^20 = 5

so (1 + i)^20 = 4

so (1 + i)^4 = 4^0.2 = 1.319508

Hence X = [100 × (1 + i)^4 × (1 − (1 + i)^40)] / 1 − (1 + i)^4

= [100×1.3195×(1−4^2)] / 1−1.3195

X = 6194.84

Solve the system of linear equation 8X plus 5Y equals 18 and 6X plus Y equals -2 by using the linear Combination method Emmaus d
Hunter-Best [27]

\text{The solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>

8x + 5y = 18 ------- eqn 1

6x + y = -2 -------- eqn 2

Multiply eqn 2 by -5

-30x -5y = 10 ----- eqn 3

Add eqn 1 and eqn 3 so that y terms gets eliminated

8x + 5y = 18

-30x -5y = 10

( + ) --------------

-22x = 28

Divide both sides by -22

x = \frac{28}{-22}\\\\x = \frac{-14}{11}

Substitute the x value in eqn 1

8(\frac{-14}{11}) + 5y = 18\\\\\frac{-112}{11} + 5y = 18\\\\5y = 18 + \frac{112}{11}\\\\5y = \frac{310}{11}\\\\y = \frac{62}{11}

\text{Thus the solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}
