Answer:

x= 17cm

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

sides of a triangle:

x, x-5, 3x

perimeter= 80cm

perimeter of a triangle= side + side + side

80 = x + (x-5) + (3x)

80 = x + x + 3x -5 ------------->(rearranging the like terms together)

80 = 5x - 5

80+5 = 5x

85 = 5x

85/5 = x

17cm = x

$6,000 dollars is invested in two different accounts earning 3% and 5% interest. at the end of one year, the two accounts earned
Anettt [7]

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>$2000</em><em> were invested at 5%</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

Let x amount of money was invested at 5% and (6000-x) amount was invested as 3%

We know that,

i=\dfrac{P\cdot r\cdot t}{100}

Putting the values,

i_1=\dfrac{P_1\cdot r_1\cdot t}{100}

i_1=\dfrac{x\cdot 5\cdot 1}{100}=\dfrac{5x}{100}

And

i_2=\dfrac{P_2\cdot r_2\cdot t}{100}

i_2=\dfrac{(6000-x)\cdot 3\cdot 1}{100}=\dfrac{3(6000-x)}{100}

According to the question,

\Rightarrow \dfrac{5x}{100}+\dfrac{3(6000-x)}{100}=220

\Rightarrow \dfrac{5x+3(6000-x)}{100}=220

\Rightarrow 5x+3(6000-x)=22000

\Rightarrow 5x+18000-3x=22000

\Rightarrow 5x-3x=22000-18000

\Rightarrow 2x=4000

\Rightarrow x=2000

Therefore, $2000 were invested at 5%
