the answer to this question is 4
The absolute value of any positive value is just the value itself so it would still be 5.23
Parallel lines, slope is the same so
1) 3x+8y = 12
8y = -3x + 12
y = -3/8(x) + 3/2, slope = -3/8
slope of a line that is parallel = -3/8
2)5x+4y = 5
4y = -5x + 5
y = -5/4(x) + 5/4; slope is -5/4
slope of a line that is parallel = -5/4
--------------------
perpendicular, slope is opposite and reciprocal
3)
3x+8y = 11
8y = -3x + 11
y = -3/8(x) + 11/8. slope = -3/8
slope of perpendicular line = 8/3
4)
x = -7, slope is undefined
so slope of perpendicular line is 0
5)
3x+2y = 12
2y = -3x + 12
y = -3/2(x) + 6 ; slope = -3/2
5x - 6y = 8
6y = 4x - 8
y = 2/3(x) - 4/3; slope is 2/3
slope is opposite and reciprocal, so the equals are perpendicular
6)
3x + y = 5
y = -3x + 5; slope = -3
6x + 2y = -15
2y = -6x - 15
y = -3x - 7.5; slope = -3
both have slope = -3 so equations are parallel
Answer:
Tiffany
Step-by-step explanation:
Ramon is 4 to 1 water to sugar
Tiffany is 3 to 1 water to sugar
We are given the following information
Investment = $5200
Annual interest rate = 4.2% = 0.042
Final amount = $16,500
Number of years = 27.7 years
Number of compoudings = quartely = 4
The student uses the following model

The general formula for compound interest is given by

As you can see, the number of compoundings is incorrect (3 vs 4)
The interest rate is also incorrect.
Let us substitute the given values into the above formula

Therefore, the final amount is approximately $16,543.5
