13 + (-12) - (-5)
13 - 12 + 5
1 + 5
= 6.
Answer is A)
Calculate the interest in a year
Multiply the annual percentage of interest by the investment to find the interest.
interest in a year = 2% × 1,000
interest in a year = 0.02 × 1,000
interest in a year = 20
The annual interest is $20
Calculate the interest after 10 years
Multiply the annual interest by 10
interest 10 years = 20 × 10
interest 10 years = 200
The sum of interest after 10 years is $200
Find total investment
investment = first investment + interest in 10 years
investment = 1,000 + 200
investment = 1,200
The investment will be worth $1,200 in 10 years
Answer:
(1, 6 )
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 2y = 17 → (1)
4x + y = 10 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term
- 8x - 2y = - 20 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
- 3x + 0 = - 3
- 3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (1)
5(1) + 2y = 17
5 + 2y = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
2y = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 6
solution is (1, 6 )
