The answer for this problem would be x equal to 430 cm and y is equal to 325. This is computed by establishing the equations. This first equation based on first statement would be x = 15 + y and the second would be 5x = 3y + 525. Then it is solve as follows:
5x = 3y + 525

Answer: he should invest $16129 today.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let $P represent the initial amount that should be invested today. It means that principal,
P = $P
It would be compounded annually. This means that it would be compounded once in a year. So
n = 1
The rate at which the principal would be compounded is 7.6%. So
r = 7.6/100 = 0.076
The duration of the investment would be 6 years. So
t = 6
The formula for compound interest is
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
A = total amount in the account at the end of t years.
A = 25000
Therefore
25000 = P(1+0.076/1)^1×6
25000 = P(1.076)^6
25000 = 1.55P
P = 25000/1.55
P = $16129
9(2w−y)=21w−9y
First you multiply the numbers in the parenthesis by 9

subtract. 21w-18w=3w

add. -9y+9y=0

divide.

Final answer is 0.
First, let's add all the x's.
x + x + x + x + x = 5x
5x - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
Now, let's add together all the 1's that are being added (not the 1 that is being subtracted from 5x).
1 + 1 + 1 = 3
5x - 1 + 3
3 - 1 = 2
5x + 2
There's no way you can actually solve this unless you know the value of x; without x's value, this is as simplified as the expression is going to get.
Hope this helps!
