Answer : The annual interest rate was, 8.5 %

Step-by-step explanation :

Given:

Principle = $17,500

Simple interest (S.I) = $2975

Time = 2 years

Now we have to determine the interest rate.

Formula used :

S.I=\frac{PRT}{100}

where,

P = principle  

R = interest rate

T = time

S.I = simple interest

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\$2975=\frac{(\$17,500)\times R\times (2)}{100}

R=\frac{\$2975\times 100}{(\$17,500)\times (2)}

R=8.5\%

Thus, the annual interest rate was, 8.5 %

Let x is the interest rate

$17,500 * 2 * x = <span>$2975
</span>$35,000x = $2,975
x = $2,975/$35,000
<span>x = 0.085

0.085 * 100 = 8.5%

Answer: annual interest rate was 8.5%

Write an equation passing through the point and perpendicular to the given line: (-3,5);y = 3/4x-4
balandron [24]

Hey!

So the first thing we realize is that it says that the equation is perpendicular to the line, meaning that the slope of the line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line you are given. Since we are given the slope of this line as 3/4 we can take the negative reciprocal of this to get -(4/3).

Now that we have the slope and a point on the line you can plug those into the equation y = mx + b to find b. The slope of the line is m and the point contains the x and y values.

5 = -(4/3)(-3) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 = b

Since we have the y-intercept and the slope now we can plug that into the slope-intercept form equation to get the equation we need:

y = -(4/3)x + 1
