Answer:
Brian had $30 initially.Brian had $30 initially.
Step-by-step explanation:
WE are given the following in the question:
Let Brian have x dollars and Colin have y dollars.
Ration of Brian's money to Colin's money is 5:1. This, we can write the equation:

"Brian spent £27 that day. Brian now had £3 less than Colin."
Thus, we can write the equation:

1. find how much he will earn, find the differnce between that and 18000
2. see how much to invest till he will get 18000
A=

A=futre amount
P=present amout
r=rate in decimal
n=number of times per year ccompounded
t=time in years
1.
A=?
P=9000
r=0.06
n=4 (quarter means 4 times per year)
t=2
?=

?=

?=

?=10138.4 will be earned
18000-10138.4=7861.6 needed
2.
A=18000
P=9000+x
r=0.06
n=4 (quarter means 4 times per year)
t=2
18000=

18000=

18000=

divide both sides by 1.015^8
15978.8=9000+x
minus 9000 both sides
6978.8 needed
if he willnot be investing any more, he needs $7861.6 more
if he will invest more he will need to invest $6978.8 more
The grade of a road is the slope of a road. In the U.S., grade is often expressed as a percent by finding the product 100(slope). Approximate the grade of a road that has a rise of 950 ft over 3 mi is :
A. 3%
Answer is 4 lb.,12 oz.
As one pound has 16 ounces.
When we convert the given 5 lb. into ounces we multiply it by 16.
5 lb = 5 x 16 oz
5 lb = 80 oz
When we subtract 4 oz from 80 oz
We get
80 - 4 = 76 oz
Which is
64 oz + 12 oz
(16 x 4) oz + 12 oz
Which will be
4 lb. + 12 oz
So the answer will be
4 lb., 12 oz.
