We invested $7000 invested in two accounts, we don't know how much exactly is in each account, therefore we will assign variables to these amounts. The amount invested in the "8%" account is "x", while the other one is "y". The sum of these two numbers must be equal to $7000, therefore:

x+y=7000

The sum of interest of each account should be equal to 580, therefore:

0.08\cdot x+0.12\cdot y=580

We need to solve the system in order to determine the values.

\begin{gathered} \begin{cases}x+y=7000 \\ 0.08x+0.12y=580\end{cases} \\ \begin{cases}-0.12x-0.12y=-840 \\ 0.08x+0.12y=580\end{cases} \\ -0.04x=-260 \\ x=\frac{-260}{-0.04}=6500 \\  \end{gathered}

Now we can replace the value of "x" in the first equation to determine the value of "y".

\begin{gathered} 6500+y=7000 \\ y=7000-6500 \\ y=500 \end{gathered}

The values are 6500 in the 8% account and 500 in the 12% account.

Which of the following relations is a function?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

<em>A. (1,4), (-5, 2), (7, 1), (-8, 2)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Definition of a Function</u>

A function is a relation between an input and an output set of values with the condition that every element in the input set relates only to one element in the output set.

From the four options presented in the question, we must select the only one that doesn't repeat the value for x and has a different value of y.

For example, the set

B. (1,4), (-5, 6), (1, 3), (-8, 2) is not a function because the input value of 1 has two different output values

C. (1,0), (-5,3), (7, 1), (-5,5) is not a function either because the input value of -5 has two different output values

The correct choice is:

A. (1,4), (-5, 2), (7, 1), (-8, 2)
