Answer:
$969.04
Step-by-step explanation:
now at age of 18 Brad has 1500 * 1,065^18
at age of 21 he will have 1500 * 1,065^21
if he waits the difference will be 1500 * 1,065^21 - 1500 * 1,065^18 = $969.04
Eleven Million Seven Hundred and Sixty Thousand Eight Hundred and Twenty-five.
Linear equations are all solved the same way. Figure out the operations performed on the variable. Undo those in reverse order.
Here, the variable is
- divided by 2
- has -7 added.
In reverse order, we undo these operations by
- adding 7
- multiplying by 2.
Whatever we do to one side of an equation, we must also do to the other side. That is how the equal sign remains valid.
2 = m/2 -7
2 +7 = m/2 -7 +7 . . . . . add 7
9 = m/2 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
2*9 = 2*m/2 . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
18 = m . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify. (You know that 2/2 = 1, and m*1 = m.)
The answer is m = 18.
