Let's say that the value invested in the account with a rate of 8% is "x", then the amount invested in the account with a rate of 12% is:
To calculate the total interest we need to calculate the interest of each individual account and sum them:
The total interest is the sum of the two expressions above:
The value invested in the account with 8% interest is 830, the one invested in the account with 12% interest is 1280.
Answer:
-5n + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1. What is the difference?</u>
The sequence goes down by 5. This means that the formula will have -5n in it.
<u>2. Work out the term before the first term.</u>
The first term is 3, and we know that the sequence goes up by 5. So, to get the term before 3 we would add 5.
3 + 5 = 8 Remember, this is positive 8. (+8)
<u>3. Put that term at the end of the equation. </u>
We have -5n already and we just worked out the term before the first one which is positive 8 - so put that at the end of the equation.
-5n + 8 This is our answer!
Just to prove it works:
<em>Substitute: n = term</em>
Lets see if we can get the 3rd term which is -7. (n = 3)
-5(3) + 8
-15 + 8 = -7
See, it works!
Answer: each girl received 30 stickers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of stickers that the boys received.
Let y represent the number of stickers that the girls received.
The total number of children was 42. 2/3 of the children were boys. It means that the number of boys were
2/3 × 42 = 28
The number if girls would be
42 - 28 = 14
The total number of stickers that the school principal shared was 840. It means that
28x + 14y = 840- - - - - - - - -1
Each of the boys received the same number of stickers while each girl received twice as many as each boy. It means that
y = 2x
Substituting y = 2x into equation 1, it becomes
28x + 14 × 2x = 840
28x + 28x = 840
56x = 840
x = 840/56
x = 15
y = 2x = 15 × 2
y = 30
