9514 1404 393
Answer:
$1400
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount borrowed from Bank 1. For each loan, the interest is given by I=Prt, where P is the principal borrowed at rate r for t years.
Then the total interest over 3 years is ...
3(4.3%·x +5.9%(5400 -x)) = 888.60
-1.6%·x +318.60 = 296.20 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3, simplify
-1.6%·x = -22.40 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 318.60
x = 22.40/0.016 = 1400
The student borrowed $1400 from Bank 1.
The first step to solving an equation like this is to find the slope of a line that will be perpendicular to the line given. The slope of a line that's perpendicular to another line is the negative reciprocal. The negative reciprocal of -1/5 is 5. So, so far our equation is y = 5x + b. Now, to find what b is equal to, we should substitute the values of x and y from the point (1,2) since we know that our line goes through the point. Our equation becomes:
2 = 5 + b
b= -3
That means that the equation of our new line is y = 5x - 3
15 is the answer i divided
T=34xP
T= tip for him
P= percent he charges for tip
