Answer:

Insert the point (-2, 3)

2·a·(-2) - b·3 - 5 = 0 --> - 4·a - 3·b - 5 = 0 --> 8·a + 6·b + 10 = 0

b·(-2) + 3·a·3 - 15 = 0 --> 9·a - 2·b - 15 = 0 --> 27·a - 6·b - 45 = 0

I + II

35·a - 35 = 0 --> a = 1

8·1 + 6·b + 10 = 0 --> b = -3

What is the slope of the line graphed below (3,5) (0,-1)

Leona [35]

You can just do rise over run to find the slope or use the slope equation which is
$y = y1 - y2 \div x1 - x2$
3=x1
0=x2
5=y1
-1=y2
input those and you can get the slope graphed.

A sum of money is invested at 12% compounded quarterly. About how long will it take for the amount of money to double?

iVinArrow [24]

I'll use my own formula (similar to yours tho)

$A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$
A=future amount
p=invested
r=rate in decimal
n=number of times per year compounded
t=time in years

so
when will A=2P
subsitute 2P for A
also quarterly means 4 times a year or n=4
and 12%=0.12=r
so

$2P=P(1+ \frac{0.12}{4})^{(4*t)}$
divide both sides by P
$2=(1+ \frac{0.12}{4})^{(4*t)}$
simplify
$2=(1+ 0.03)^{4t}$
$2=(1.03)^{4t}$
take the ln of both sides
$ln(2)=ln(1.03)^{4t}$
$ln(2)=4tln(1.03)$
$ln(2)=t(4ln(1.03))$
divide both sides by 4ln(1.03)
$\frac{ln(2)}{4ln(1.03)}=t$
use calculator
5.86244=t
