Answer: 27 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 9  → x = 9 + y

3y = 2x

3y = 2(9 + y)

3y = 18 + 2y

3y - 2y = 18

y = 18

2x = 3(18)

2x = 54

x = 27

x - y = 9

27 - 18 = 9

9 = 9

What is the principal which would amount to $6900 in 3 years at 5% simple interest per annum?​
balu736 [363]

Answer:

$6000

Step-by-step explanation:

accumulated amount = A = PI

A = $6900

Let P = x

6900 - I = x

I = (x)(0.05)(3yrs) = 0.15x

6900 - 0.15x = x

Add

6900 = 1.15x

Divide, solve for x

x = 6000
