Answer:
Option d. the initial amount of money placed in the savings account
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

This is a exponential function of the form

where
a is the initial value
r is the growth rate
(1+r) is the base
x is the number of years
f(x) is the amount of money in a savings account
In this problem we have
a=$3,005
r=0.03=3%
(1+r)=1.03
therefore
3,005 represent the initial value ( the amount of money for the value of x equal to zero)
The given distance of 5.20 would be A.
Replace A with 5.20 to solve for T.
T = 5.20^3/2
T = 11.9 years.

Step-by-step explanation:
(-1.2,-2.0) and (1.9,2.2) are the best approximations of the solutions to this system.
Option B
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here, we have a graph of two functions from which we need to find the approximate value of common solutions. Let's find this:
First look at where we have intersection points, In first quadrant & in third quadrant.
<u>At first quadrant:</u>
Draw perpendicular lines from x-axis & y-axis from this point . After doing this we can clearly see that the perpendicular lines cut x-axis at x=1.9 and y-axis at y=2.2. So, one point is (1.9,2.2)
<u>At Third quadrant:</u>
Draw perpendicular lines from x-axis & y-axis from this point. After doing this we can clearly see that the perpendicular lines cut x-axis at x=-1.2 and y-axis at y= -2.0. So, other point is (-1.2,-2.0).
