Answer:

$176.3193692 or $176.32 (rounded to two decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a compound interest, which means the interest accumulates on an initial amount each period.

The formula is A=P(1+R)^n

A= the total amount P=initial amount R=rate n=time (years)

P=$120 Rate= 8% or 0.08 (decimal) n=5 (years)

A=120 (1+0.08)^2

A=120 (1.469328077)

A= 176.3193692

Find the following limit or state that it does not exist. ModifyingBelow lim With x right arrow minus 2 StartFraction 3 (2 x min

leva [86]

Answer:

-60

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective is to state whether or not the following limit exists

$\lim_{x \to -2} \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2}$ .

First, we simplify the expression in the numerator of the fraction.

$3(2x-1)^2 -75 = 3(4x^2 - 4x +1) -75 = 12x^2 - 12x + 3 - 75 = 12x^2 - 12x -72$

Now, we obtain

$12(x^2-x-6) = 12(x+2)(x-3)$

and the fraction is transformed into

$\frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2} = \frac{12(x+2)(x-3)}{x+2} = 12 (x-3)$

Therefore, the following limit is

$\lim_{x \to -2} \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2} = \lim_{x \to -2} 12(x-3) = 12 \lim_{x \to -2} (x-3)$

You can plug in $-2$ in the equation, hence

$12 \lim_{x \to -2} (x-3) = 12 (-2-3) = -60$

PLEASE HELP!!! THIS IS MY LAST QUESTION!! ASAP!!

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

In order of what is shown on the pic:

- Trinomial

- Monomial

- Trinomial

- Binomial

- Polynomial with four terms

Step-by-step explanation:

Again, in the same order as above:

1. The first has three terms, making it a trinomial

2. 7x^2 - 7x^2 +4x

The 7x^2 cancels out and we are left with only 4x

Since there is one value, it is a monomial

3. This one has three terms, making it a trinomial

4. This one has two terms, making it a binomial

5. The last one has four terms, making it a polynomial with four terms.
