Rewrite the equation 4x-6y=-30 as a function of x.
\n" ); document.write( "6y=4x+30
\n" ); document.write( "3y=2x+15
\n" ); document.write( "y=(2/3)x+5
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Bob invested $20,000, part at 14% and part at 13%. If the total interest at the end of the year is $2,720, how much did he invest at 14%?
\n" ); document.write( "Let amt. invested at 14% be \"x\"; interest on this is 0.14x dollars
\n" ); document.write( "Amt. invested at 13% will be \"20,000-x\"; interest on this is 0.13(20000-x)
\n" ); document.write( "= 2600-0.13x dollars
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "interest + interest = 2720
\n" ); document.write( "0.14x + 2600-0.13x = 2720
\n" ); document.write( "0.01x = 120
\n" ); document.write( "x = $12,000 (invested at 14%)
\n" ); document.write( "20000-x = $8,000 (invested at 13%)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "One number is 12 more than another. The sum of the smaller number and twice the larger number is 39. Find the larger number.
\n" ); document.write( "Let one number be \"x\"; The other number is \"x+12\"
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "x+2(x+12)=39
\n" ); document.write( "3x+24=39
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 15
\n" ); document.write( "x=5
\n" ); document.write( "------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The length of a rectangle is 8 in., more than twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 64., find the width of the rectangle.
\n" ); document.write( "Let width = x inches
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 2x+8 inches
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2(length+width)
\n" ); document.write( "64 = 2(2x+8+x)
\n" ); document.write( "32 = 3x+8
\n" ); document.write( "3x=24
\n" ); document.write( "x=8 inches
\n" ); document.write( "width = 8 inches
\n" ); document.write( "==============
