Brian invested his savings in two investment funds. the $6000 that he invested in fund a returned 7% profit. the amount that he invested in fund b returned a 2% profit. how much did he invest in fund b, if both funds together returned a 5% profit?

Brian invested $ 4000 in Fund B, if both funds together returned a 5% profit

Solution:

Given, Brian invested his savings in two investment funds.  

The $6000 that he invested in Fund A returned 7% profit.  

The amount that he invested in Fund B returned a 2% profit.  

We have to find how much did he invest in Fund B, if both funds together returned a 5% profit?

Let the amount invested in Fund B be n.

Then, 5% of (6000 + n ) = 7% of 6000 + 2% of n

Hence, the amount invested in fund b is $4000.

answer:   segregation violated the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment, which holds that no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

details/explanation:

brown v. board of education of topeka, decided by the us supreme court in 1954, ruled that all americans are entitled to the same civil liberties and protections in regard to access to education. until that decision, it was legal to segregate schools according to race, so that black students could not attend the same schools as white students.   an older supreme court decision, plessy v. ferguson (1896), had said that separate, segregated public facilities were acceptable as long as the facilities offered were equal in quality.   in the case of brown v. board of education, that standard was challenged and defeated.   segregation was shown to create inequality, and the supreme court unanimously ruled segregation to be unconstitutional.

the ruling was important in advancing civil rights because it affirmed that the 14th amendment applies to all rights and privileges of citizens, including access to   education.   this was being violated by states whose laws supported the segregation of schools.   section 1 of the 14th amendment reads as follows:

correct answer is infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

solving the above equation:

4x + 6 = -4 +4x +10

combining like terms

4x -4x = -4+10-6

0=0

since both sides are 0=0, we end up into true statement it means it has infinite many solutions.

so correct answer is infinitely many solutions
