Answer:g(x) = - 5.6

Step-by-step explanation: first I presume the expression is

g(x) = 2x− 1

Given that g(-2.3)

Substituting this value for x in the expression we have

g(x) = 2(-2.3) − 1

g(x) = - 4.6-1

g(x) = - 5.6

So first you'll substitute x for -2.3 then you'll subtract 2 by 1 which equals 1 then you'll divide -2.3 on both sides which will equal g = -1.3

A person invests $4000 at 2% interest compounded annually for 4 years and then invests the balance (the $4000 plus the interest

faltersainse [42]

$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$4000\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{2}{100}\to &0.02\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years\to &4
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=4000\left(1+\frac{0.02}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 4}\implies A=4000(1.02)^4\implies A\approx 4329.73$

then she turns around and grabs those 4329.73 and put them in an account getting 8% APR I assume, so is annual compounding, for 7 years.

add both amounts, and that's her investment for the 11 years.

The painting shown at the right has an area of 220. What is the value of x?

tangare [24]

Answer:

9.76

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a rectangle = length * breadth

length = (2x + 3)

breadth = x

given area is 220 sq. inches.

thus,

220 = x * (2x+3)

220 = 2x² +3x

2x² + 3x -220 = 0

x = (-b + √ ( b²-4ac) ) ÷ 2a

x = ( -3 + √ ( 3² - 4*2*220) ) ÷ 2*2

x =9.76
