Alex invests $2,000 in a company's stock. After a year, the value of Alex's stock has increased to $2,500. What rate of return h

Kay [80]

The rate of interest is 25%

Explanation:

Given:

Principal, P = $2,000

Amount, A = $2500

Time, t = 1 year

Rate of Interest, r = ?

We know:

$Amount = P(1+\frac{r}{100})^t$

On substituting the value we get:

$2500 = 2000 (1 + \frac{r}{100})^1\\ \\\frac{25}{20}= (1+\frac{r}{100})\\$

$\frac{5}{20} = \frac{r}{100}\\ \\r = \frac{100 X 5}{20} \\\\r = 25$

Therefore, the rate of interest is 25%

Through: (-3,0), perp. to y = 3x - 1

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

$y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

line y=3x-1

point (-3,0)

Write: equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given and passes through the point (-3,0)

Solution:

The slope of the given line is $m=3$

If $m_1$ is the slope of perpendicular line, then

$m\cdot m_1=-1\\ \\3m_1=-1\\ \\m_1=-\dfrac{1}{3}$

So, the equation of the needed line is $y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x+b.$

Find b. This line passes through the point (-3,0), so its coordinates satisfy the equation:

$0=-\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot (-3)+b\\ \\0=1+b\\ \\b=-1\\ \\y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-1$
