The answer to your question would be -25/3
As decimal -8.333333
5 x 10 is 50 then 50 + 11 is 61 so I think it would be 61 ;)
4x - 2y = 14
y = 0.5x -1
Get just one variable on one side for both equations.
4x - 2y = 14 ⇒ 4x = 2y + 14 ⇒ 4x - 14 = 2y
y = 0.5x - 1 ⇒ x - 2 = 2y
Use the transitive property and then solve for x.
x-2 = 4x-14
12 = 3x
x = 4

Answer: Present value = $7200
Step-by-step explanation: Given Principal that is the original amount is $6000
Rate is 10% every fourth year
But the total period is eight.
So the interest would be paid 8/4 = 2 times.
Therefore,
Simple interest
= {principal * rate * no of times}/100
= {$6000*10*2}/100
Simple interest = $1200
Present value
= principal + Simple interest
= $6000 + $1200
= $7200.
