Set the equations equal to each other because you need to find when they will be the same.
Add 5x to each side and subtract 256 from each side to get the variable alone.
Divide by 2.
The answer is:
x=-8
Because:
If you pick a number(-8) to fill in the equation written below
5x+20+5x=5x-20
After applying the -8 to x you get
-40+20-40=-40-20
When you simply the both sides you get
-60=-60
And that’s right -60 is equal to -60!
The balance after 8 years is $22,942.67
<h3>
What is the balance after 8 years?</h3>
We know that the savings account earns 15% annually, and the initial deposit is $7500, then the balance as a function of time in years is:
B = $7500*(1 + 15%/100%)^t
B = $7500*(1.15)^t
The balance after 8 years is what we get when we evaluate the above function in t = 8, so we get:
B = $7500*(1.15)^8 = $22,942.67
So the correct option is the last one.
