The missing factor in the equation is -21

<h3>What is a distributive factor?</h3>

The Distributive Property introduces the multiplication operator an existing mathematical statement that involves the addition operator.

From the complete question, the equation is given as:

$6 \times x= (3 \times 7) + (x \times 7)$

Where x represents the missing factor.

So, we have:

$6x= (21) + (7x)$

Remove brackets

$6x= 21 + 7x$

Collect like terms

$6x-7x= 21$

Evaluate the like terms

$-x= 21$

Divide both sides by -1

$x= -21$

Hence, the missing factor in the equation is -21

Suppose that $9500 is placed in an account that pays 8% interest compounded each year.

Blababa [14]

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill &\$9500\\ r=rate\to 8\%\to \frac{8}{100}\dotfill &0.08\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{each year, thus once} \end{array}\dotfill &1\\ t=years\dotfill &1 \end{cases}$

$\bf A=9500\left(1+\frac{0.08}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 1}\implies A=9500(1.08)\implies \boxed{A=10260} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{after 2 years, t = 2}}{A=9500\left(1+\frac{0.08}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 2}}\implies A=9500(1.08)^2\implies \boxed{A=11080.8}$

Can you make a triangle with angles 45 degrees, 90 degrees, and 35 degrees?

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a triangle the angles have to add up to 180 degrees so 90+45+35=170 degrees not 180.

This recipe makes a cake big enough to serve 4 people.

nignag [31]

Answer:

He can make a cake that serves 24 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gareth has 13 eggs, but only 2 are needed for 4 servings. 13 divided by 2 equals 6.5. We can't serve half of a person, so there will be a large cake equivalent to the size of 6 small cakes. Since 1 small cake serves 4 people, and Gareth's large cake is 6 times the size of a small cake, Gareth's cake can serve a total of 24 people. Now that is one big cake!

The Kellys are saving up to go on a family vacation in 2 years. They invest $3200 into an account with an annual interest rate o

ryzh [129]

Answer:

$3,273.14

Step-by-step explanation:

-We first calculate the effective interest rate of 1.13% compounded daily:

$i_m=(1+i/m)^m-1\\\\=(1+0.0113/365)^{365}-1\\\\=0.011363909$

#Now, we calculate the compounded amount after 2 years using this rate:

$A=P(1+i)^n\\\\=3200(1.011363909)^2\\\\\\=3273.14$

Hence, the compounded amount after 2 years is $3,273.14
