by solving the first equation you'll get x= -24/13
if you solve the second option (B) then you'll the same result i.e x=-24/13
so option C is correct
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The result is given by means of some algebraic handling:

- Multiplication of rationals.
- Dividing each term by 2.
- Dividing each term by 2.
- Dividing each term by 3.
Answer: The answer is C, 4 to the 21st over 5 to the 6th power.
<span>Let x = 0.5333333333 ...
So 100x = 53.3333333333 ...
and 10x = 5.3333333333 ...
---------------------------------
90x = 53 – 5 = 48.
So x = 48/90 = 8/15 after reduction to lowest terms (by factor of 6)
0.3333... = ⅓. and that 0.5 = ½.
So 0.533333... = 0.5 + 0.0333333...0.5 + 0.3333.../10 = 1/2 + (1/3)/10 = 1/2 + 1/30 = 16/30 = 8/15</span>

What is compounding interest?
Compounding interest means that earlier interest would earn more interest in the future alongside the loan principal.
Note that in this case the loan continues to accumulate interest because there no repayments, in other words, the loan balance after 8 years, which comprises of the principal and interest for 8 years can be computed using the future value formula of a single cash flow(the single cash flow is the principal) as shown thus:
FV=PV*(1+r/n)^(n*t)
FV=loan balance after 8 years=unknown
PV=loan amount=$5,000
r=annual interest=14%
n=number of times in a year that interest is compounded=2(twice a year)
t=loan period=8 years
FV=$5000*(1+14%/2)^(2*8)
FV=$5000*(1.07)^16
FV=$5000*2.95216374856541
FV=loan balance after 8 years=$14,760.82
