4(x - 2) + 6 = 2(5x - 6) <em>use distributive property</em>
(4)(x) + (4)(-2) + 6 = (2)(5x) + (2)(-6)
4x - 8 + 6 = 10x - 12
4x - 2 = 10x - 12 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
4x = 10x - 10 <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>
-6x = -10 <em>divide both sides by (-6)</em>
x = 10/6
<h3>x = 5/3</h3>
18 - (8 - 3 • (2t + 5)) = 0
6t + 25 = 0
3.1 Solve : 6t+25 = 0
Subtract 25 from both sides of the equation :
6t = -25
Divide both sides of the equation by 6:
t = -25/6 = -4.167
Final answer is
t = -25/6 = -4.167
Answer: a. $2700
b. $10200
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The interest she would have earned at the end of the 6 years can be gotten using the formula
= PRT/100
= $7500 × 6% × 6
= $7500 × 6/100 × 6
= $7500 × 0.06 × 6
= $2700
b. Her balance when she wants to withdraw the money would be:
= $7500 + $2700
= $10200
