<u>Answer:</u>

○ y = \frac{1}{4}x - \frac{1}{2}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the equation of the line, let's first consider the points whose coordinates we have been given:

• (6, 1)

• (2, 0).

The point (2, 0) is what is called the x-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the x-axis. This means that at this point, the y-coordinate of the line is 0.

Next, let's calculate the slope (gradient) of the line using the formula:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

where:

m = gradient,

(x_2, y_2) and (x_1, x_2) = points on the line.

Using the formula:

m = \frac{1 - 0}{6 - 2}

⇒ m =\bf \frac{1}{4}

Finally, now that we have two points on the line as well as the line's slope, we can use the following formula to find the equation of the line:

\boxed{y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)}

You can use any of the points on the line as y_1 and x_1.

Using (2, 0):

y - 0 = \frac{1}{4}( x - 2)

⇒ y = \frac{1}{4}x - \frac{1}{2}

Therefore the equation of the line is y = \frac{1}{4}x - \frac{1}{2}.

Noah currently has an account balance of $2,976.45. He opened the account 11 years ago with a deposit of $1,963.45. If the inter
Vesnalui [34]
What we know:
Acct. balance A (11)= $2,976.45
Pricipal=$1,963.45
Compounded (n)=quarterly (4)
rate=r
Compound interest formula: A (t)=p (1+r/n)^nt

What we need toi find:
If the interest compounds quarterly, what is the interest rate on the account? Find r.
A (t)=p (1+r/n)^nt
2976.45=1963.45 (1+r/4)^(4×11)
2976.45=1963.45 (1+r/4)^44
2976.45/1963.45=1963.45/1963.45 (1+r/4)^44
1.5159=(1+r/4)^44
(1.5159)^(1/44)=((1+r/4)^44)^(1/44)

1.0095=1+r/4
1.0095-1=1-1+r/4
.0095=r/4
.0095(4)=r/4 (4)
.038=r

Rate = 3.8%
