16
x * 3 = 48
so divide 48 by 3
which is 16 so x = 16

Answer:

Part A) $\$42,888.48$

Part B) $A=\$22,304$

Part C) The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) What will the account be worth in 20 years?

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

$t=20\ years\\ P=\$8,500\\ r=0.0812\\n=12$

substitute in the formula above

$A=8,500(1+\frac{0.0812}{12})^{12*20}$

$A=8,500(1.0068)^{240}$

$A=\$42,888.48$

Part B) What if the deposit were compounded monthly with simple interest?

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

$A=P(1+rt)$

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

$t=20\ years\\ P=\$8,500\\r=0.0812$

substitute in the formula above

$A=8,500(1+0.0812*20)$

$A=\$22,304$

Part C) Could you see the situation in a graph? From what point one is better than the other?

Convert the equations in function notation

$A(t)=8,500(1.0068)^{12t}$ ------> equation A

$A(t)=8,500(1+0.0812t)$ -----> equation B

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

Observing the graph, from the second year approximately the monthly compound interest is better than the simple interest.

HELP DUE IN 10 MINUTES!!<br><br> Solve for x.<br><br> −2(4x+4) - 3x - 2 = 34

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$- 2(4x + 4) - 3x - 2 = 34 \\ \\ - 8x - 8 - 3x - 2 = 34 \\ \\ - 8x - 3x = 34 + 8 + 2 \\ \\ - 11x = 34 + 8 + 2 \\ \\ - 11x = 44 \\ \\ x = - \frac{44}{11} \\ \\ x = - 4$
