Jackson made $300 in interest by placing $1,000 in a savings account with simple interest for 2 years. what was the interest rate?

The interest rate was 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula is the easiest and most straightforward to use since it doesn't involve using logs or natual logs or Euler's number.  It is

I = Prt

Filling in using our info gives us 300 = 1000(r)(2)

and 300 = 2000r

Divide both sides by 2000 and you get r = .15.  Multiply by 100 to get the percentage.

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
