Use this formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^nt, where A is the amount after interest (what you are solving for), P is the amount you invested originally, r is the rate at which it was invested in decimal form, n is the number of times the compounding occurs each year, t is the time in years it is invested. It would look like this: A = 500(1 + [.06/12])^12*5. Do inside the parenthesis first to get 1 + .005 = 1.005. Now raise that to the 60th power (12 times 5 is 60) to get 1.34558. Now multiply that by the 500 out front to get a total amount of $674.43
X=-3
because
-4x=21-9
-4x= 12 divide both sides
x=-3
The answer & explanation for this question is given in the attachment below.
Multiple 16 by 1 and then divide by 8 which makes 2.
Multiply 36 by 1 and then divide by 9 which makes 4.
The answer is x2 + 2xy + y2.
