Answer:

x = 6 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Total weight of the candy = x

3/20x + 1.2 lb + 3/5x + 0.3 lb = x

3/20x + 3/5x + 1.5 lb = x

3x+12x/20 + 1.5 lb = x

15/20x + 1.5 = x

1.5 = x - 15/20x

1.5 =20x -15x /20

1.5 = 5/20x

1.5 = 1/4x

x = 1.5 ÷ 1/4

= 1.5 × 4/1

= 6

x = 6 lb

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

  $8100·1.024^28

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value formula is ...

  FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

where P is the principal invested, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times per year interest is compounded and t is the number of years. Putting the given numbers in place of the corresponding variables gives the expression you want:

  FV = $8100(1 +.048/2)^(2·14)

  FV = $8100·1.024^28 . . . . . simplified
