Answer:
x=−32/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
1/2(1/4x−3/5)=1/4(2/5+3/4x)
(1/2)(1/4x)+(1/2)(−3/5)=(1/4)(2/5)+(1/4)(3/4x)(Distribute)(1/2)(1/4x)+(1/2)(−3/5)=(1/4)(2/5)+(1/4)(3/4x)(Distribute)
1/8x+−3/10=1/10+3/16x
1/8x+−3/10=3/16x+1/10
Step 2: Subtract 3/16x from both sides.
1/8x+−3/10−3/16x=3/16x+1/10−3/16x
−1/16x+−3/10=1/10
Step 3: Add 3/10 to both sides.
−1/16x+−3/10+3/10=1/10+3/10
−1/16x=2/5
Step 4: Multiply both sides by 16/(-1).
(16/−1)*(−1/16x)=(16/−1)*(2/5)
x=−3/25
Answer:
At 7% $54,000
At 9% $156,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount invested at 7%, Then 2x + 48000 will be the amount invested at 9%
We know that:
7% = 0.07 & 9% = 0.09
So we can write the interest equation as follows:
0.07x + 0.09 (2x + 48000) = 17820
0.07x + 0.18x + 4320 = 17820
0.25x + 4320 = 17820
Subtracting 4320 from both sides of the equation we get:
0.25x = 17820 - 4320
0.25x = 13500
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.25 we get:
x = 13500 / 0.25
x = $54,000 invested at 7%
&
2 x 54000 + 48000
= $156,000 invested at 9%
Hence the amount invested at 7% is $54,000.
& the amount invested at 9% is $156,000.

Bror cancelled terms which should NEVER be done.
x² + 3x + 2 / (x + 2) =
(x+1) * (x+2) / (x+2)
Cancelling the (x+2) factor we get
x + 1
