Answer:
denominators are zero for x=1
there is no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
We suspect your equation is supposed to be ...
10/(5x -5) +1/5 = 2/(x -1) . . . . . parentheses are required on denominators
The denominators will be zero for x=1.
This version of the equation has no solution. It simplifies to ...
2/(x-1) + 1/5 = 2/(x -1)
1/5 = 0 . . . . . subtract 2/(x-1) from both sides
There is no value of x that will make this equation true.
_____
<em>Alternative interpretation</em>
The way your equation is written, it must be interpreted according to the order of operations to be ...
(10/5)x -5 +1/5 = (2/x) -1 . . . . x=0 makes the denominator zero
2x -3.8 = 2/x
2x^2 -3.8x = 2 . . . . multiply by x
2(x^2 -1.9x +.95^2) = 2 +2(0.95^2)
(x -0.95)^2 = 1.9025
x = 0.95 ± √1.9025 ≈ {-0.4293, 2.3293}
The second and last one.
The second one multiplies the cost of each type of ticket by two, therefore saying that you wanted to buy two of each type of ticket.
The last one multiplies the cost of a single ticket of all three types and multiplies it by 2.
The amount to be invested today so as to have $12,500 in 12 years is $6,480.37.
The amount that would be in my account in 13 years is $44,707.37.
The amount I need to deposit now is $546.64.
<h3>How much should be invested today?</h3>
The amount to be invested today = future value / (1 + r)^nm
Where:
- r = interest rate = 5.5 / 365 = 0.015%
- m = number of compounding = 365
- n = number of years = 12
12500 / (1.00015)^(12 x 365) = $6,480.37
<h3>What is the future value of the account at the end of 13 years?</h3>
Future value = monthly deposits x annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
Where:
- r = interest rate = 5.3 / 12 = 0.44%
- n = 13 x 12 = 156
200 x [{(1.0044^156) - 1} / 0.0044] = $44,707.37
<h3>What should be the monthly deposit?</h3>
Monthly deposit = future value / annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
Where:
- r = 6.7 / 12 = 0.56%
- n = 2 x 12 = 24
$14,000 / [{(1.0056^24) - 1} / 0.0056] = $546.64
