Answer:
4) 7
5) -12
Step-by-step explanation:
4) 5x+2= 37
5x= 37-2
x= 35/5
x= 7
5) -6x-7= 65
-6x= 65+7
x= 72/-6
x= -12
Answer:
$172,984.44
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the formula
to compute the final amount
Here P is the principal amount, the original deposit = $25,000
r is the annual interest rate = 6.5% = 0.065 in decimal
n is the number of times the compounding takes place. Here it is quarterly so it is 4 times a year
t is the number of time periods ie 30 years
A is the accrued amount ie principal + interest
Computing different components,



Therefore

4p^2 + 4p - 5
As the expression cannot be factored in it's current form, we need to check if splitting the middle term is possible.
<em><u>List factors of -20.</u></em>
-5 * 4
5 * -4
-10 * 2
10 * -2
-20 * 1
20 * -1
<u>None of the factors added together result in positive 4.</u>
Because splitting the middle term is not possible, and we cannot simplify this expression any further:
This expression cannot be fully factored.
The answer is to this question is option B
