<h3>Answer: No, this function is not linear</h3>

This function is a hyperbola. It graphs out two disjoint curves. A linear function produces a single straight line graph. All linear functions can be written in the form y = mx+b. The x being in the denominator is one indicator we cannot write the original equation in the form y = mx+b.

y = 3/x is the same as xy = 3; this tells us every point on y = 3/x has its (x,y) coordinate pair multiply to 3.

4,000,000 and 20,000,000 miles²

let x be the area of one desert then 5x is the area of the other

sum = x + 5x = 24,000,000

6x = 24,000,000

divide both sides by 6

x = 4,000,000

one desert is 4,000,000 miles²

and the other is (5 × 4,000,000)= 20,000,000 miles²

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The original amount deposit is $1641627.68.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If your balance after 8 years in the bank at a rate of interest of 11%% is 3783193.

To find : How much was your original deposit?

Solution :

Applying interest formula,

$A=P(1+r)^t$

Where, A is the amount i.e. A=$3783193

P is the principal value i.e. the original deposit

r is the interest rate r=11%=0.11

t is the time t=8 years.

Substitute the value in the formula,

$3783193=P(1+0.11)^8$

$3783193=P(1.11)^8$

$3783193=P\times 2.30$

$P=\frac{3783193}{2.30}$

$P=1641627.68$

Therefore, The original amount deposit is $1641627.68.
