Answer:
X = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First count the amount of X's. There are 5 and it is plus two. Both sides should be equal in value so you have to set up your equation.
5x + 2 = 17
Then Solve For X
5x + 2 = 17
Subtract 2 from both sides
5x = 15
Divide by 5
X = 3
Check your answer
5(3) +2 = 17
15 + 2 = 17
17 = 17
It is correct!
Melanie:
Amount after 5 years = 4000(1 + 0.04)⁵ = $4867
Gina:
Amount after 5 years = 4000 + 5(0.045 x 4000) = $4900
Answer: Gina has the greater balance and her balance is $4900.
