The annual interest rate is 3.5%.
Solution:
Given Interest (I) = $26.25
Principal (P) = $500
Time (t) = 18 months
Rate of interest (r) = ?
Time must be in years to find the rate per annum.
1 year = 12 months
Divide the time by 12.
Time (t) = 
years
Now, find the rate of interest using simple interest formula.
<u>Simple interest formula:</u>
⇒ r = 3.5%
Hence the annual interest rate is 3.5%.
Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct option is B): "<span>Let x = 1st integer. Let x + 2 = 2nd integer.</span><span>"
Given that "The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 28."
Now the difference between two odd numbers is 2.
So this means that one odd number has to be greater than the other by 2.
Let the smaller number be 'X' therefore the bigger number will be 'x+2'
thus
x + (x+2) = 28
therefore,
x + x + 2 = 28
now we subtract "2" from both the sides
therefore,
2x = 26
now dividing throughout by 2 we get:
x = 13
therefore,
x + 2 = 13+2
= 15
therefore, the numbers are
13 AND 15</span>
After plotting all the three points, we get the parabolic equation in the form is 2(x - 1)²-34.
<h3>What is parabola?</h3>
Any point on a parabola, which has the shape of a U, is situated at an equal distance from the focus, a fixed point, and the directrix, a fixed line.
General equation of the quadratic equation,
Y = ax² + bx +c
Given points,
(-2, 0),
(-1, -10),
(4, 0).
Putting the points in the general equation,
Putting (-2, 0), we get
0 = 4a - 2b + c
Putting (-1, -10), we get
-10 = a - b +c
Putting (4, 0), we get
0 = 16a + 4b +c
Solving all equations we get,
a = 2 , b = -4 , c = -16
After putting the values,
Y = 2x²- 4x- 16
2(x² - 2x - 8)
2(x²- 2x + 1 - 1 - 16)
=2(x - 1)²-34
Hence we get the required equation in the parabolic form.
