Two brothers, Mark and Walter, each inherit $20000. Mark invests his inheritance in a savings account with an annual return of 2
Igoryamba

Answer:

$720

Step-by-step explanation:

$20000 - 100%

$x. - 2.5%

x=(20000*2.5)/100=500

20000+500=$20500 in one year (Mark)

20000 - 100

x. - 6.1

x= (20000*6.1)/100 = 1220

20000+1220= $21220 (Walter)

21220-20500= $720 more (Walter will have after 1 year)

Please solve for w, p=21+2w
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

w = (p - 21)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation so that it is equal to w.

p = 21 + 2w

p - 21 = (21 + 2w) - 21

p - 21 = 2w

(p - 21)/2 = (2w)/2

(p - 21)/2 = w

w = (p - 21)/2

Find an equation of the line in the form whose​ x-intercept is 15 and​ y-intercept is 3​, where​ a, b, and c are integers with n
madreJ [45]

x-intercept = (15, 0)                  y-intercept = (0, 3)

slope (m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (0 - 3)/(15 - 0) = -3/15 = -1/5

Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)   ; where (x₁, y₁) is one of the given points

y - 0 = (-1/5)(x - 15)

    -5y = x - 15

             x + 5y = 15

Answer: x + 5y = 15
