Answer:
A) In 4 hours the tempature would both be the same
B) The tempature then would be 3 degreees Fahrenheit
Step-by-step explanation:
SO for the first step just make a list
In my format
x (hour): Coldspit and Frostberg in temperature
1st hour: -4.5 and 15
2nd hour: -2 and 11
3rd hour: 0.5 and 7
4th hour: 3 and 3
Answer: -2x + 9
First, Use the distributive property: 3(x+3)-5x (3 multiplied by x is 3x and 3 multiplied by 3 is 9
Next, subtract the variable x: 3x+9-5x (3x-5x=-2x
The answer is -2x+9
Answer:
$1136.60
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for exponential growth is f(x) = a(1 + r)^x where a is the initial value, r is the growth rate, and x is the number of time intervals.
We know that Mr. Paris starts with an $1800 initial value, so we can substitute that into the equation:
f(x)=1800(1 + r)^x
We also know the time intervals is 6 months. So that can be substituted as well:
f(x)=1800(1 + r)^6
They told you that the growth rate is 8.5%, which is 0.085 of 1.
f(x)=1800(1 + 0.085)^6
Add the 2 values in the parentheses and you get 1.085
f(x)=1800(1.085)^6
Now solve.
Order of operations requires you to raise 1.085 to the 6th power before multiplying by 1800. So then you have this:
1800(1.63146751) = 2936.64152. That rounds to 2936.60
So $2936.60 is the total amount of money in the bank account, but were looking for the interest earned, which is the difference between the end value and the initial value.
$2936.60 - $1800 = $1136.60
I mean I think so I’m not completely sure it’s a really hard question
