Answer:

The comparable tax rate is 3.95%, thus you should choose the 4.5% taxable account option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to convert the tax-free interest rate of 3% per year to the comparable taxable interest rate, one should consider that 3% is the interest rate after the marginal tax discount. If you are at the 24% marginal tax bracket, the comparable rate is:

r*(1-0.24)=0.03\\r=\frac{0.03}{0.76}\\r=0.0395\\r=3.95\%

The comparable tax rate is 3.95%, thus you should choose the 4.5% taxable account option.

What are the excluded values v^2 +1 / v^2 -v-6
valentina_108 [34]
The rational expression
\dfrac{v^{2}+1}{v^{2}-v-6}=\dfrac{v^{2}+1}{(v-3)(v+2)}
will be undefined where the denominator is zero. Values of v that make the denominator zero are v=3 and v=-2.

Excluded values of v are -2 and 3.

Answer: y = -4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Plug in y1 and x1, and m. M is the slope, x1 and y1 are the values for a coordinate. You don't need to plug anything in for y or x, just y1 and x1.

First, find the slope. To find the slope, use this "formula" : slope=\frac{rise}{run} =\frac{y1-y2}{x2-x1}

Find two coordinate points. Let's use (-2,4) and (0,-4). Based on this, we know that y1 is 4, y2 is -4, x1 is -2, and x2 is 0. Plug these into the formula:

\frac{4--4}{-2-0} =\frac{4+4}{-2} =\frac{8}{-2}=-4

Then, pick any point to plug into the equation. Let's use (0,-4)

Finally, plug everything into the equation:

y - - 4 = -4(x - 0)

y + 4 = -4x

y = -4x - 4
