Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

A = $235,000

P = $53,000

n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.

t = 18 years

Therefore,.

235000 = 53000(1 + r/1)^1 × 18

235000/53000 = (1 + r)^18

4.43 = (1 + r)^18

Raising both sides to the power of 1/18, it becomes

4.43^(1/18) = (1 + r)^18 × 1/18

1.086 = 1 + r

r = 1.086 - 1

r = 0.086

r = 0.086 × 100 = 8.6%

Which graph shows a function and it’s inverse? <br><br> HELP PLEASE
TEA [102]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A function and its inverse are obtained by reflecting in the line y = x

Under a reflection in the line y = x

a point (x, y ) → (y, x )

In graph C

the red line has a point (0, 2 )

the blue line has a point (2, 0 )

Then graph C shows a function and its inverse
