We first remove the bracket:
-7.8x - 50.7 = -25.74
Evaluate:
-7.8x = -25.74 + 50.7
x = 24.96/-7.8
x = -3.2
Answer:
The government paid an interest of $41.9, which is 4.19%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 189-day, $1,000 U.S Treasury bill is purchased at a discount of 4.19%, this means that:
It was purchased at a discount of:
4.19% of $1000
= (4.19/100) × 1000
= $41.9
Purchase price = $1000 - $41.9 = $958.1
Because the treasure is sold for $1000 on maturity day, that means the government paid an interest of $41.9, which is 4.19%
The median or middle number is 9.5
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
P- parenthesis
E- exponents
D- division
M- multiplication
A- addition
S- subtraction
So in your problem you have 4 being subtracted by 2(3). In fact 2(3) is equivalent to 2*3 so you problem is 4-2*3. looking at Pedmas you can see that you do multiplication befor subtraction so the equation goes as follows.
4-2*3
4-6
-2
To find the percent you would divide 591 by 2364
591/2364=.25
.25*100 = 25%
Does that make sense?
