Hey there! :)
Answer:
$3600.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the wife received $6000 which is a quarter of the money, solve for the total amount of the fortune:
1/4x = 6000
Multiply both sides by 4:
x = $24000
We can begin by subtracting the wife's amount from the total:
24000 - 6000 = $18000
He has 3 sons and 4 daughters. Let 'x' represent the amount the daughters received, and '2x' the amount the sons received.
18000 = 3(2x) + 4(x)
Distribute and combine the terms:
18000 = 6x + 4x
18000 = 10x
Divide both sides by 10:
18000/10 = 10x/10
x = $1800. This is the amount that each daughter receives. Since the sons receive '2x':
2(1800) = $3600.
Answer:
12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 2.5
5( 2.5 )
12.5
hopefully this helps you out
I believe the answer is 3x5+8x4-2x2-2x
Y = 500(1 + r)^x; where r is the rate and x is the number of years.
500(1 + r)^2 = 551.25
(1 + r)^2 = 551.25/500 = 1.1025
1 + r = sqrt(1.1025) = 1.05
Therefore, the equation that represents y, the value of the item after x years is
y = 500(1.05)^x
