4n-3=4n-2 subtract 4n from both sides
-3=-2
Since -3!=-2, there is no solution.
So your answer is a.
first off, let's convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then proceed, let's notice that by PEMDAS or order of operations, the multiplication is done first, and then any sums.

Answer:
$121.51
Step-by-step explanation:
At 18.7%, the monthly multiplier is 1+.187/12, so for the year, James' balance is multiplied by (1+.187/12)^12 ≈ 1.2038899
At 12.5%, the monthly multiplier is 1+.125/12, so for the year, James' balance is multiplied by (1+.125/12)^12 ≈ 1.1324161
The difference in these multipliers is ...
1.2038899 -1.13241605 = 0.0714739
so James' savings is ...
$1700 × 0.0714739 ≈ $121.51
