The balance B at the end of time t is given by
  B = P +Prt
  8250 = 6000 +6000*r*12.5 . . . . substitute the given information
  2250 = 6000*r*12.5 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 6000
  2250/(6000*12.5) = r . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of r
  r = .03 = 3%

Clint earned 3% annual simple interest on his savings.

\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount}\\\\
A=P(1+rt)\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &\$8250\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$6000\\
r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\
t=years\to &12.5
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
8250=6000[1+(r)(12.5)]\implies \cfrac{8250}{6000}=1+12.5r
\\\\\\
\cfrac{11}{8}=1+12.5r
\implies 
\cfrac{11}{8}-1=12.5r\implies \cfrac{\frac{11}{8}-1}{12.5}=r
\\\\\\
0.03=r\implies 
r\%=003\cdot 100\implies r=\stackrel{\%}{3}

2(x-3)= 2x +5 help me out please

Answer:

Look Down Low

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x - 3)  =  2x + 5

Multiply out the left side:

2x - 6  =  2x + 5

Subtract 2x from both sides:

   -6  =  5

Since this is impossible, this "equation" cannot be solved.
