Answer:
The correct answer 8486.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Troy - P pr principle amount = 10000
rate = 9%
time = 60-22 = 38
intrest at every three months so time = t = 38*4 = 132
Nicohlas
P = x
rate = 10%
time = 60 -45 = 15
every month compounded = 15*12=180
solution:
the formula of compound intrest = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
where n = number of counded intrests per year
puting formula for troy=
10000 (1+9/4)^132
= 294,322.96 .....1
now for nicolas
I = x(1+10/12)^180
x = 294,322.96/(1+10/12)^180
= 8486.
If x=-6 then y=54.
If x=-4 then y=51.
If x=-2 then y=48.
If x=0 then y=45.
If x=2 then y=42.
If x=4 then y=39.
If x=6 then y=36.
There are an infinite variety of pairs of numbers for 'x' and 'y'
that can make that equation true.
You can use that equation to draw a line on a graph. Then
EVERY point on the line is a solution to the equation.
'x' and 'y' don't have single values unless you have TWO equations.
If you type in both the coordinates it’ll give you the answer on google. That’s how I did this.
The variable “x” can be defined as the price of regular gas.
The equation is x = x - (.02)7
x = x - (.02)7
(.02)7 = .14
x = x - .14
X - X = nothing so it just leaves you with -.14
The answer is that the gas price changed by a total of - 14 cents or -0.14
