Answer:

3 ( 5a - 2b + 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = 3 * 5

6 = 2 * 3

36 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

GCF = 3

15a - 6b + 36 = (3* 5 * a) - (3 *2 * b) + (3 * 12)

= 3 ( 5a - 2b + 12)

The answer is A) 28
Set up a proportion based on the triangle side lengths. I chose to put the smaller ones over the bigger ones:
$\frac{6}{42} = \frac{32-x}{x}$
Then cross multiply to get 1344-42x = 6x
Add 42x to both sides to isolate the x changing the equation to 13444 = 48x
Divide both sides by 48 to get x = 28

Paul has $20000 to invest. He can invest part of his money at 6% and the rest at 4%. How much does paul have to invest at each r

jek_recluse [69]

Answer: he should invest $15000 at 6% and $5000 at 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the part of his money that he should invest at 6%.

Let y represent the part of his money that he should invest at 4%.

Paul has $20000 to invest. He can invest part of his money at 6% and the rest at 4%. It means that

x + y = 20000

The interest that he would earn on the amount invested at 6% after 1 year is

6/100 × x = 0.06x

The interest that he would earn on the amount invested at 4% after 1 year is

4/100 × y = 0.04y

if he wants to get a total of $1100 interest on his $20000, it means that

0.06x + 0.04y = 1100- - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 20000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.06(20000 - y) + 0.04y = 1100

1200 - 0.06y + 0.04y = 1100

- 0.06y + 0.04y = 1100 - 1200

- 0.02y = - 100

y = - 100/-0.02

y = 5000

x = 20000 - y = 20000 - 5000

x = 15000
