Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Given:}\\\\AB=3x-4\\AC=2x+12\\BC=7x-2\\AB:AC=1:2\Rightarrow(3x-4):(2x+12)=1:2\\\\\dfrac{3x-4}{2x+12}=\dfrac{1}{2}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\(3x-4)(2)=(2x+12)(1)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\(3x)(2)+(-4)(2)=2x+12\\\\6x-8=2x+12\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\\\6x-8+8=2x+12+8\\\\6x=2x+20\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\6x-2x=2x-2x+20\\\\4x=20\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{20}{4}\\\\x=5

\text{Put the value of}\ x\ \text{to}\ AC\ \text{and}\ BC:\\\\AC=2(5)+12=10+12=22\\\\BC=7(5)-2=35-2=33\\\\AC:BC=22:33=\dfrac{22}{33}=\dfrac{22:11}{33:11}=\dfrac{2}{3}=2:3

Samir is trying to decide between two checking account plans. After researching plans at two banks, he finds that Unity Bank off
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The monthly compounded interest rate of 0.14% of Unity Bank is a better plan.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1 : Write the formula for calculating a monthly compound interest rate and for calculating an annually compounded interest rate.</em>

Monthly compound interest rate = P(1+r/n)^nxt

<em>n=12 (number of months in a year)</em>

<em>t=1 (number of years)</em>

Annually compound interest rate = P(1+r/n)^nxt

<em>n=1 (because it is for 1 year only)</em>

<em>t=1 (number of years=1)</em>

<em>Step 2 : Lets assume that P is $100 in both banks and time is 1 year.</em>

<em>Step 3 : Lets substitute the values to find out which one is better.</em>

Monthly compound interest rate = P(1+r/n)^nxt

Monthly compound interest rate = 100(1+0.14/12)^12x1

Monthly compound interest rate = 114.93

114.93 - 100 = $14.93 per month

14.93 x 12 = $179.16 for 12 months or 1 year

Annually compound interest rate = P(1+r/n)^nxt

Annually compound interest rate = 100(1+1.6/1)^1x1

Annually compound interest rate = 260

260-100 = $160 for 1 year

Therefore, the monthly compounded interest rate of 0.14% of Unity Bank is a better plan.
