it is best for Mr. Stripling to borrow money from Bank B (  Emerson Bank)  to complete his Graduate courses

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mr. Stripling needs to take out a loan of $20,000 to be able to pay for his Graduate course.

That means , he needs a principal amount of $20,000

SO , he has two options;

A - To borrow from Union Hill Bank which offers him 7% interest for 3 years.

B - To borrow from Emerson Bank which offers him  5% interest in 4 years

For Bank A; (Union Hill Bank)

Let Principal = $20,000

Rate = 7%

T = 3 years

We can easily calculated for the simple interest S.I by the formula:

S.I = $4,200

For Bank B ; (  Emerson Bank)

S.I = $4,000

Thus; it is best for Mr. Stripling to borrow money from Bank B (  Emerson Bank)  to complete his Graduate courses.

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
