Answer:
D; x -y = 22
3x + 2y = 246
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us have the bigger number as x and the smaller as y
The difference between the two is 22
Thus, we have it that;
x - y = 22
twice the smaller number; 2(y) added to thrice the larger 3(x) equals 246
3x + 2y = 246
So we have the two equations as;
x -y = 22
3x + 2y = 246
CD = certificate of deposit (an investment)
Interest rate, i = 10% per annum (simple interest)
Principal, P = $2000 (present value)
Period, T = 3 months = 0.25 year
Simple interest formula
Interest earned = Pit
=2000*0.10*0.25
=$50
Balance at maturity (amount that investor gets after three months)
=$2000+$50
=$2050
Answer:
Each steamer costs $2.5 and each party hat costs $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of 1 steamer =x
Let the cost of 1 party hat =y
Three rolls of streamers and 15 party hats cost $30
Two rolls of streamers and four party hats for $11.
We solve the two equations simultaneously.
Multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3
6x+30y=60
6x+12y=33
Suntract
18y=27
y=1.5
From 6x+30y=60
6x+30(1.5)=60
6x+45=60
6x=60-45=15
x=2.5
Since x=2.5 and y=1.5
Each steamer costs $2.5 and each party hat costs $1.5
Answer:
x = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
6x+26 = 296
6x+26-26 = 296-26
6x = 270
x = 45
