To determine the slope, you can use the following formula:

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

The distance formula is one method

The change in y over the change in x equals the slope.

(-7, 3) & (1, -9)

To get from 1 to -7 you subtract 8
To get from -9 to 3 you add 12

12/-8 reduces to 3/-2

The slope is 3/-2

Anna wants to buy a car in two years and wants to have $10,000 for the purchase. How much will Anna need to deposit today in an

Brut [27]

Answer:

Anna will need to deposit $\$9,050.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have

$t=2\ years\\A=\$10,000\\ r=0.05\\n=12$

substitute in the formula above and solve for P

$10,000=P(1+\frac{0.05}{12})^{12*2}$

$10,000=P(1.0042)^{24}$

$P=10,000/(1.0042)^{24}$

$P=\$9,050.25$

Which expression is equivalent to the expression below?(6c^2+3c/-4c+2)/(2c+1/4c-2)

algol [13]

Answer:

-3c

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is:

$\frac{\frac{6c^{2}+3c}{-4c+2}}{\frac{2c+1}{4c-2}}$

We need to simplify this expression. The rational expression in the denominator can be multiplied to numerator by taking its reciprocal as shown below:

$\frac{\frac{6c^{2}+3c}{-4c+2}}{\frac{2c+1}{4c-2}} \\\\ =\frac{6c^{2}+3c}{-4c+2} \times \frac{4c-2}{2c+1}\\\\=\frac{3c(2c+1)}{-(4c-2)} \times \frac{4c-2}{2c+1}\\\\ =-3c$
