Answer:
$2000 was invested at 5% and $5000 was invested at 8%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the interest is simple interest.
<u>Simple Interest Formula</u>
I = Prt
where:
- I = interest earned.
- P = principal invested.
- r = interest rate (in decimal form).
- t = time (in years).
Given:
- Total P = $7000
- P₁ = principal invested at 5%
- P₂ = principal invested at 8%
- Total interest = $500
- r₁ = 5% = 0.05
- r₂ = 8% = 0.08
- t = 1 year
Create two equations from the given information:


Rewrite Equation 1 to make P₁ the subject:

Substitute this into Equation 2 and solve for P₂:





Substitute the found value of P₂ into Equation 1 and solve for P₁:



$2000 was invested at 5% and $5000 was invested at 8%.

Answer:
358.125
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to calculate how many years her brother has when she is 18. As text says he is:
18/3 = 6 years old
Now when she gains another 18 years (36-18=18) he will also gain those 18 years
When she is 36 he will have 6+18=24 years old
Answer is 24.
Answer:
[6x] + [-7y] + [-4]
Step-by-step explanation:
There are only two like terms in this expression "4x" and "2x." Since they are like terms we can combine them by adding the coefficients and keeping the variable attached. Therefore we can combine 4x and 2x into 6x. Since there are no more like terms, this expression can be simplified to 6x - 7y - 4.
