Hi,

x/2 = 2x - 3

x/2 - 2x = - 3

x = 3 /(3/2)

x = 3 * 2/3 = 2

The number is 2.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

You invested 11000 in in 2st fund and 9000 in 2nd fund

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that, You invested money in two funds.  

Last year, the first fund paid a dividend of 8% and the second a dividend of 5%, and you received a total of $1330.  

This year, the first fund paid a 12% dividend and the second only 2%, and you received a total of $1500.

Let the amount in Fund I be $x and amount in Fund II be $ y

Then, for last year ⇒ 0.08x+0.05y=1330 ----- eqn (1)  

And for this year ⇒ 0.12x+0.02y=1500 ------- eqn (2)  

Multiply (1) by 2 ⇒ 0.16 x + 0.1 y = 2660  

Multiply (2) by 5 ⇒ 0.6 x + 0.1 y = 7500

Subtract the two equations  

(2) ⇒ 0.6x + 0.1y = 7500

(1) ⇒ 0.16x + 0.1y = 2660

(-) --------------------------------

0.44x + 0 = 4840

x = 11000

Now, from eqn (2)  

0.12(11000) + 0.02y = 1500  

0.02y = 1500 – 1320  

0.02y = 180  

y = 9000

Hence, he invested 11000 in in 2st fund and 9000 in 2nd fund

What is the simplified form of 30 times x to the sixth power over 14 times y to the fifth power times the fraction 7 times y-squ
Sonbull [250]
If we convert the given in its mathematical form, we have,

                      (30x⁶/14y⁵)(7y²/6x⁴)
It can be observed that the numerator of the first and the denominator of the second have a common factor of 6x⁴. Also, the denominator of the first and the numerator of the second expression have a common factor of 7y².

                      ((6x⁴)(5x²)/(7y²)(2y³))(7y²/6x⁴)

Cancellation of the common terms will give us an answer of,
  
                               <em>5x²/2y³

</em>
<em />Therefore, the simplified version of the involved operation is 5x²/2y³. <em>
