1). $2,700 is (2,700/6,000) = 45% of 6,000.
It took 6 years to earn it, so it earned (45%/6) = 7.5% each year.
That's the simple-interest rate.

2). The investment earns 4.5% each year, so it earned 9% in 2 years.
The $1,150.65 is the 9% of the original investment. Call it V.
1150.65 = 0.09 x V .
Divide each side by 0.09 :
V = 1150.65 / 0.09 = $12,785 .

3). There are 18 marbles in the bag all together.
a). 8 of them are green. If you close your eyes and pull out 1 marble,
the probability that it's a green one is
8/18 = 4/9 = 44.4% .
b). If it was a red marble, and you put it in your pocket, then
there are only 17 in the bag now, and 8 of them are still green.
If you pull another one, the probability that it's green is
8/17 = 47.1% .

5). There are 10 marbles in the bag all together.
(The second sentence doesn't say anything, and doesn't mean anything.)
If you pull out a silver marble and put it in your pocket, then
there are 9 marbles in the bag, and 2 of them are orange.
The probability of pulling an orange marble now is
2/9 = 22.2% .
Answer:
x = 7
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 12 = 3x - 5
5y - 4 = 3x - 5
So y + 12 = 5y - x
To solve the equation above, y =4
Sub y = 4,
x = 7
A regular hexagon is composed of 6 regular triangles whose area is equal to half of the product of the apothem and side.
A - triangle = (1/2)(a)(s) = (1/2)(1.7 cm)(2 cm) = 1.7 cm²
Multiplying this area by 6 to get the area of the hexagon gives as the answer which is 10.2 cm². Therefore, the answer is letter D.
