Step-by-step explanation:

2(7x +8)=12

2(7x +8)/2 =12/2

7x +8 =6

7x=6-8

7x = -2

x= -2/7

Hi there! :)

12=2(7x+8)

Use the Distributive property:

12=14x+16

Move all the numbers to the right side and the variables to the left side:

-14x=16-12

-14x=4

Divide both sides by -14 to isolate x:

x=-\frac{4}{14} \\-\frac{2}{7}

<h2>Therefore, x=-\frac{2}{7}</h2>

Hope this helps you!

First, determine the effective interests given both interest rates.

(1)   ieff = (1 + 0.068/12)^12 - 1 = 0.07016
(2)   ieff = (1 + 0.078/12)^12 - 1 = 0.08085

Calculating the interests will entail us to use the equation,
     I = P ((1 + i)^n - 1)

Substituting the known values,
  (1)    I = ($5125)((1 + 0.07016)^1/2 - 1)
          I = $176.737

   (2)    I = ($5125)(1 + 0.08085)^1/2 - 1)
            I = $203.15

a. Hence, the greater interest will be that of the second loan. 

b. The difference between the interests,
    d = $203.15 - $176.737
          $26.413

Answer:

The answer is (π/4)*r

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula length of arc when the angle given is in radian as the case given

s = r*θ

s = arc length (in radians)

r = radius

θ = central angle in radians

But when the angle given is in degrees the length is expressed as

s= 2πr*(θ/360)

Factorise 2p^2 - p - 10<br> (2p squared)
velikii [3]

2p² - p - 10 = 0

2 = a

- 1 = b

- 10 = c

To factor, find two numbers that multiply to equal a·c and also that have a sum of b

2p² + 4p - 5p - 10 = 0

2p (p + 2) - 5 (p + 2) = 0

<h3>Answer: ( 2p - 5 ) ( p + 2 ) = 0</h3>
