Answer:

3, 50, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

By multiplying all terms by 5, we are trying to remove the fraction on the left hand side. On the right hand side of the equation, expand the bracket by multiplying 5 to each term in the bracket.

3(n +25)= 5(10) +5( $\frac{2}{5} n$ )

3(n +25)= 50 +2n

To find the value of n, expand the bracket on the left hand side:

3(n) +3(25)= 50 +2n

3n +75= 50 +2n

Bring all n terms to one side, constants to the other:

3n -2n= 50 -75

n= -25

John borrowed $ from bank for 3 years at a rate of 10%

garik1379 [7]

<h3>Given:</h3>

P= $12500
R= 10%
T= 3 years

<h3>Note that:</h3>

P= Principal amount
R= Rate of interest
T= Time period

<h3>To find:</h3>

The simple interest
The total amount paid

<h3>Solution:</h3>

$\large\boxed{Formula: I= \frac{PRT}{100}}$

First, we'll have to multiply, principal amount (12500), rate (10) and time period (3).

$12500×10×3$

$=375000$

Now, we'll have to divide the amount (375000) by 100.

$\frac{375000}{100}$

<em>I=$3750</em>

Now, we can find the total amount paid.

$\large\boxed{A=SI+P}$

Let's substitute according to the formula.

$A=3750+12500$

<em>A=$16250</em>

<u>Therefore</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>simple</u><u> </u><u>interest</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>$</u><u>3</u><u>7</u><u>5</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u><u>$</u><u>1</u><u>6</u><u>2</u><u>5</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>was</u><u> </u><u>paid</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>total</u><u>.</u>

What is the reason for each step in the solution of the equation?

Brums [2.3K]

The correct reason <span>for each step in the solution of the equation would be as follows:
</span>
12 − 5x + 6x = 4 - Given

12 + x = 4 - Combine Like Terms

x= −8 - Subtraction Property of Equality

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
