The equation looks like this:
26=x*3.5+8.50
where x is the number of pen you bought.
We solve it like this:
first, we subtract 8.50 from both sides:
17.50 =3.5*x
now we divide both sides by 3.5:
5=x
so you purchased 5 pens.
Answer:
In the first account was invested

In the second account was invested
at 5%
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The simple interest formula is equal to
where
I is the Interest Value
P is the Principal amount of money to be invested
r is the rate of interest
t is Number of Time Periods
in this problem we have
First account
substitute in the formula above
Second account
substitute in the formula above
Remember that
The interest is equal to
so
Adds the interest of both accounts
therefore
In the first account was invested
at 3%
In the second account was invested
at 5%
5*4^2-3*4*5=80-60=20

Speed boat departed 1.75 hrs after steam boat1.8 hrs after speed boat departure, steam boat has sailed for a total: 1.8+1.75 = 3.55 hrssteam boat's speed is 36.8 km/hr, so it has traveled: 3.55*36.8 = 130.64 km
speed boat is 86.9 km behind steam boat. so it is 130.64-86.9 = 43.74 km from portspeed boat's speed = 43.74/1.8 = 24.3 km/hr
