Answer:
A = 5x³ + 17x² - 35x - 30
Step-by-step explanation:
the shaded area (A) is calculated as
A = outer area - inner area
= (5x + 3)(x² + 4x - 10) - 3x(2x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis
= 5x³ + 20x² - 50x + 3x² + 12x - 30 - (6x² - 3x)
= 5x³ + 23x² - 38x - 30 - 6x² + 3x ← collect like terms
= 5x³ + 17x² - 35x - 30
You first subtract 1/5 from both sides
3/4-1/5 = 11/20
3/2x=11/20
now you multiply 2/3 on both sides since you have to get x
11/20 * 2/3
x = 11/30
The formula for calculating compound interest with yearly contributions is:
Balance = X*(1 + Y)^n + Z((1 + Y)^(n + 1) - (1 + Y)/Y)
where the balance is the money earned after n years invested
Y is the interest rate as a fraction
Z is the yearly contribution
X is the starting investment
Therefore the calculation for this example is:
Balance = 1200*(1 + 0.05)^48 + 1200((1.05)^49 - (1.05)/05)
= $249,393.5
