Let,
Harry's age - x then Nick is 7x.
After 6 years, Harry is x+6 and Nick is 7x+6
So, 7x+6= 5(x+6)=> 2x = 30-6X = 12
In 6 years, Harry will be 12+6 = 18 years (Ans)
-7 to make 4 so -4x=4 x=-1
The answer is x=-1
Hope this helps:)
Answer:
a. Yes. The difference is common and equal to $1750
b. $1750
c. $20000 was initial investment
d. This is linear equation with start point of 20000 and slope of 1750:
e. After another 10 years (on the top of 5 given) the investment will be:
- y = 1750*15 + 20000 = $46250
f. After 20 years the value of investment will be:
- y = 1750*20 + 20000 = $55000
