Answer:
$6750 in the bank account and $20,250 in the stock fund
Step-by-step explanation:
If B is the money they put in the bank and S is the amount they put in the stock fund, then:
B + S = 27000
1.024 B + 1.072 S = 1.06 × 27000
Solving the system of equations:
1.024 (27000 − S) + 1.072 S = 28620
27648 − 1.024 S + 1.072 S = 28620
0.048 S = 972
S = 20250
B = 27000 − S
B = 6750
They should put $6750 in the bank account and $20,250 in the stock fund.
<em>x = 25</em>
- <em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>
<em>Hi there ! </em>
- <em><u>
the opposite angles are equal</u></em>
<em><u>4x - 25 = 25 + 2x</u></em>
<em><u>4x - 2x = 25 + 25</u></em>
<em><u>2x = 50</u></em>
<em><u>x = 50 : 2</u></em>
<em><u>x = 25</u></em>
<em><u>Good luck ! </u></em>
So represent the ages as x y and z with each being numbers
x+y+z=21
x times y times z=75
this is really tough for elementary school
one way is to find the factors of 75 or the numbers that add up to 75 and trial and error
use whole numbers becuase this is the world of math so
75=1 times 3 times 5 times 5
possible ages are
3,5,5
1,5,15
1,3,25
add them up
3+5+5=13
1+5+15=21 check
1+3+25=29
their ages are 1, 5 and 15
