Answer:

Elena won the race.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you calculate it, Lin runs a mile every 9 minutes.

9 times 7.5= 67.5 which is 1 hour, 7 minutes and 30 seconds. While it took only an hour for Elena to run 7.5 miles.

Which means Elena's speed was faster and got her to the finish line first.

$\bf A=5280\left[ \cfrac{\left( 1+\frac{0.06}{1} \right)^{1\cdot 4}-1}{\frac{0.06}{1}} \right]$

Joe is making $485 payments monthly, but the amount gets interest on a yearly basis, not monthly, so the amount that yields interest is 485*12

also, keep in mind, we're assuming is compound interest, as opposed to simple interest

-3(1-2x)-3=-20-8x what is the work and answer

larisa86 [58]

You have to keep order of operations in mind.

1. Take care of the parentheses; distribute.
-3+6x-3=-20-8x
Simplified: 6x-6=-20-8x

2. Isolate the x variable.
Add 8x to both sides and add 6 to both sides.
14x=-14

3. Solve for x.
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x=-1
