Answer:
First term = -41.
Common difference = -15.
Step-by-step explanation:
nth term: an = a1 + (n - 1)d where a = first term and d = the common difference.
-671 = a1 + (43 - 1)d
-806 = a1 +(52 - 1)d
-671 = a1 + 42d
-806 = a1 + 51d
Subtracting ( to eliminate a1):
-671 - (-806) = 42d - 51d
-9d = 135
d = -15
Substitute for d in the first equation:
-671 = a1 + 42*-15
-671 = a1 - 630
a1 = -671 + 630 = -41.
You can use the prefixes to figure this out:
Mono: one
Bi: two
Tri: three
So, because there is only one term, it is a monomial.
Answer:
$6261.61
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to the differential equation is the exponential function ...
A(t) = 5000e^(0.0225t)
We want the account value after 10 years:
A(10) = 5000e^(0.225) = 6261.61
The value of the account after 10 years will be $6,261.61.

The rate of change equation basically tells you that interest is compounded continuously. After working interest problems for a while you know the formula for that is the exponential formula A = A0·e^(rt).
Or, you can solve the differential equation using separation of variables:
dA/A = 0.0225dt
ln(A) = 0.0225t +C . . . . integrate
A(t) = A0·e^(0.0225t) = 5000·e^(0.0225t) . . . . solution for A(0) = 5000
Answer:
16,800 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
1. find 20 percent of 21,000= 4,200
2. subtract 4,200 from 21,000
21,000
-4,200
16,800 dollars
Answer:
P = -2600/3 t + 25600/3
P = -8200/3
Step-by-step explanation:
t is the time in years since 1990, so two points on the line are (5, 4200) and (8, 1600).
Using the points to find the slope:
m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁)
m = (1600 − 4200) / (8 − 5)
m = -2600/3
Now writing the equation in point-slope form:
P − 4200 = -2600/3 (t − 5)
Converting to slope-intercept form:
P − 4200 = -2600/3 t + 13000/3
P = -2600/3 t + 25600/3
In 2003, t = 13:
P = -2600/3 (13) + 25600/3
P = -8200/3
