Answers:

a) See the table below

b) The equation is y = 32000(1.01125)^x

c) $40,024.02

d) See the graph below

=========================================================

Explanations:

a)

Start with part (b) where I detail how to get the equation.

Once the equation is found, plug in x = 0 to get

y = 32000(1.01125)^x\\\\y = 32000(1.01125)^0\\\\y = 32000\\\\

Repeat for x = 1

y = 32000(1.01125)^x\\\\y = 32000(1.01125)^1\\\\y = 32360\\\\

Repeat for x = 2, x = 3, x = 4 and x = 20 to get the table shown below.

-----------------------

b)

The template for any exponential equation is y = a(b)^x

a = starting amount = 32000

b = growth factor

The annual interest rate is 4.5%

We compound quarterly, so the quarterly rate is (4.5%)/4 = 1.125% which converts to the decimal form 0.01125; adding one to this leads to the growth factor of b = 1.01125

We go from y = a(b)^x to y = 32000(1.01125)^x

-----------------------

c)

Plug in x = 20 to represent 20 quarters have elapsed (aka 20/4 = 5 years)

y = 32000(1.01125)^x\\\\y = 32000(1.01125)^{20}\\\\y \approx 32000(1.25075052084381)\\\\y \approx 40024.016667002\\\\y \approx 40024.02\\\\

The investment would be worth $40,024.02 after five years, aka twenty quarters.

-----------------------

d)

See below for the graph. I'm using GeoGebra to make the graph. Another option is Desmos. It's preferable to use technology than to graph by hand. If you wanted to graph by hand, then you'd plot each of the points found in the table. Then draw a curve through all those points.

So, we know that:

A=\dfrac{1}{2}ab\\P=a+b+c\\a^2+b^2=c^2

We also know that (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2. We will use that fact to find c in terms of A and P.

A=\dfrac{1}{2}ab\Rightarrow 2ab=4A\\P=a+b+c\Rightarrow a+b=P-c

Therefore:

(P-c)^2=c^2+4A\\P^2-2cP+c^2=c^2+4a\\2cP=P^2-4A\\c=\dfrac{P^2-4A}{2P}

A system of linear equations with fewer equations than unknowns is sometimes called an underdetermined system. Can such a system
elena55 [62]

Answer:

No, it cannot have a unique solution. Because there are more variables than​ equations, there must be at least one free variable. If the linear system is consistent and there is at least one free​ variable, the solution set contains infinitely many solutions. If the linear system is​ inconsistent, there is no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

the questionnaire options are incomplete, however the given option is correct

We mark this option as correct because in a linear system of equations there can be more than one solution, since the components of the equations, that is, the variables are multiple, leaving free variables which generates more alternative solutions, however when there is no consistency there will be no solution
