Step-by-step explanation:

length = width + 4

length×width = 77

using the first in the second equation

(width + 4)×width = 77

width² + 4width = 77

now, what square or squaring factors can create this ?

we are looking for (width + a)(width + b).

we know, this is

width² + (a+b)width + ab

so, what a, b can create 4 (the factor in our actual equation) ?

1, 3 and 2, 2, if we are only looking at whole numbers.

and which of the possibilities can we use to turn 77 into a square number ?

81 is only 4 away ...

2+2 = 4.

aha !

so, we can actually say our equation is

width² + 4width + 4 = 77 + 4

and then

(width + 2)² = 81

width + 2 = 9

width = 7 m

length = width + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11 m

Answer:

The second one

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function will always increase or decrease by the same amount:

The first one adds eight for every increase of 1 in the x value

The third one subtracts three for every increase of 1 in the x value

However,

The second one starts by adding three, and then adds 1.5 for the rest

The second table is nonlinear

valkas [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The principal was compounded monthly. This means that it was compounded 12 times in a year. So

n = 12

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 4%. So

r = 4/100 = 0.04

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. The total amount is given as $100000.

1) When t is 1,

100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12×1

100000 = P(1+0.0033)^12

100000 = P(1.0033)^12

P = 100000/1.04

P = $96154

2) When t is 10

100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12×10

100000 = P(1+0.0033)^120

100000 = P(1.0033)^120

P = 100000/1.485

P = $67340

3) When t is 20

100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12×20

100000 = P(1+0.0033)^240

100000 = P(1.0033)^240

P = 100000/2.2

P = $45455

4) When t is 30

100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12 × 30

100000 = P(1+0.0033)^360

100000 = P(1.0033)^360

P = 100000/3.274

P = $30544

5) When t is 40

100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12 × 40

100000 = P(1+0.0033)^480

100000 = P(1.0033)^480

P = 100000/4.862

P = $20568

6)When t is 50

100000 = P(1+0.04/12)^12 × 50

100000 = P(1+0.0033)^600

100000 = P(1.0033)^600

P = 100000/7.22

P = $13850
