Hey!

So before trying to figure out the equation of the line, lets change -3y+4x = 9 into slope-intercept form:

-3y + 4x = 9

-3y = -4x + 9

y = (4/3)x - 3

Now that you have the equation in slope-intercept form we can find the equation of the line parallel to this. One thing that we are given from this equation is the slope of the line, the slope for two parallel lines are the same. So we know that the slope of the line is 4/3. We are also given another point on the line and we can plug this point in for y and x to find the y-intercept or b:

6 = (4/3)(-12) + b

6 = -16 + b

22 = b

Now that we know b, we have both the y-intercept and the slope so our equation would be:

y = (4/3)x + 22

Mary would like to save $10 000 at the end of 5 years for a future down payment on a car
suter [353]

Answer:

a) $161.8

b i) Approximately 327.7 hours

ii) The cost of saving is less but the opportunity cost of saving can be higher with regards to technology and regulation

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount Mary would like to save, FV = $10,000

The time Mary over which Mary intends to save the amount, t = 5 years

Therefore, the number of monthly payments, n = 12

a) The amount in interest the bank pays compounding, i = 1.2% per annum

The amount that Mary will deposit each month is given as follows;

The compound interest formula is given as follows;

PMT = \dfrac{FV}{\left (\dfrac{ \left (1 + \dfrac{i}{12}  \right )^n - 1}{ \dfrac{i}{12}} \right)}

Where;

PMT = The monthly payment

Therefore, we get;

PMT = \dfrac{10,000}{\left (\dfrac{ \left (1 + \dfrac{0.012}{12}  \right )^{60} - 1}{ \dfrac{0.012}{12}} \right)} \approx 161.8

PMT = 10,000/((1 + 0.012/12)^(60) - 1)/(0.012/12)) ≈ 161.8

The amount she needs to deposit monthly, PMT ≈ $161.8

b i) Given that the minimum wage varies and we have a minimum wage here is officially approximately $79, which is 160 hours a month work

The number of hours work needed = 161.8/79 × 160 ≈ 327.7 hours a month approximately

b ii) Given that the interest rate for saving is lower than the interest rate for borrowing, the amount paid by saving is much lesser than the amount paid back when borrowing, therefore, it is more cost effective to save

However, while saving, changes may take place, such as the use of what is being saved for, therefore, it can be more beneficial to borrow and make use of the items now while they are still available and acceptable, such as the drive towards net zero is making fuel based cars less popular with the drive being towards electric cars.

5<br> 0 = - in<br> =<br> in quadrant II<br> Given cos =<br> Find sin<br> 3
____ [38]

Answer:

sinΘ = \frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

using the identity

sin²x + cos²x = 1  ( subtract cos²x from both sides )

sin²x = 1 - cos²x ( take square root of both sides )

sinx = ± \sqrt{1-cos^2x}

given

cosΘ = - \frac{\sqrt{5} }{3} , then

sinΘ = ± \sqrt{1-(-\frac{\sqrt{5} }{3})^2 }

        = ± \sqrt{1-\frac{5}{9} }

        = ± \sqrt{\frac{4}{9} }

        = ± \frac{2}{3}

since Θ is in quadrant II where sinΘ > 0 , then

sinΘ = \frac{2}{3}

5. Given the equation y = (1/4) cos[(2pi/3)*theta]:
5a. For the general equation y = a cos(bx), the period is given by 2pi/b. In this equation, b = 2pi/3, so this means that 2pi/b = 2pi/(2pi/3) = 3. Therefore, the period of this equation is 3, and the cosine wave repeats itself every 3 x-units.
5b. For the general equation y = a cos(bx), the amplitude is given by a. Therefore the amplitude is a = 1/4, and this means that the cosine wave's range is from -1/4 to 1/4 for all values of x.
5c. The equation of the midline is y = 0. This represents the average value over the wave. This is determined by adding the highest and lowest values of the range and taking the average, in this case, 1/4 + (-1/4) = 0, and 0 / 2 = 0. Another way to do this is using the general equation y = a cos(bx) + c, where the midline's equation is y = c. In this case, there is no value of c in the given, implying that c = 0, and the midline is y = 0.

6. Let the horizontal distance be x. Then tan42 = h/x, and h = x tan42. Then using the Pythagorean theorem: 3280^2 = h^2 + x^2
3280^2 = x^2 (tan42)^2 + x^2
3280^2 = x^2 [(tan42)^2 + 1]
x = 2437.52
Therefore, h = x tan42 = 2,194.75 ft.
