what interest rate is needed to turn $2500 into $15,000 in 14 years if interest is compounded weekly?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.6845% per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest Calculation A = P(1 + rt)

Solving our equation:

r = (1/730.5)((15000/2500) - 1) = 0.00684463

r = 0.00684463

Converting r decimal to R a percentage

R = 0.00684463 * 100 = 0.6845%/week

Calculating the annual rate

0.6845%/week × 52 weeks/year = 35.594%/year.

The interest rate required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $15,000.00 from simple interest on a principal of $2,500.00 over 14.05 years (730.5 weeks) is 0.6845% per week.

NEED HELP WITH 7 AND 8<br> I WILL GOVE BRAINEST ONLY IF YOU ACTUALLY DO THE PROBLEMS
mihalych1998 [28]
7:
Parallel lines have the same slope
y = -3x + b
Plug in the x and y values from the point
5 = -3(-4) + b
5 = 12 + b
-7 = b
Answer to 7: y = -3x -7

8:
Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes
y = -2x + b
Plug in x and y from the point
-6 = -2(7) + b
-6 = -14 + b
8 = b
Answer to 8: y = -2x + 8

Identifying the slope, y-intercept and x- intercept of each
Elena L [17]

Answer:

slope= -3

y-intercept= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

To solve this problem, one needs the slope and the y-intercept. First, one will solve for the slope, using the given points, then input it into the equation of a line in slope-intercept form. The one can solve for the y-intercept.

2.Solve for the slope

The formula to find the slope of a line is;

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where (m) is the variable used to represent the slope.

Use the first two given points, and solve;

(1, 3), (2, 0)

Substitute in,

\frac{(0)-(3)}{(2)-(1)}

Simplify;

\frac{-3}{1}\\\\=-3

3. Put equation into slope-intercept form

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is;

y = mx + b

Where (m) is the slope, and (b) is the y-intercept.

Since one solved for the slope, substitute that in, then substitute in another point, and solve for the parameter (b).

y=-3x+b

Substitute in point (3, -3)

-3=-3(3)+b\\-3 = -9 + b\\6 = b
