The right multiplier is 1.03. Because x*1.03=x*(1+.03)=x+.03x
And .03x is exactly  3% of x.

The multiplier would be 1.03. You are increasing the original amount, x, by 3% To increase a number by a certain percentage you take the percent it's being added times the number, and then add that to the original. So 100% of x + 3% of x = 1x + 0.03x = 1.03x. The original amount, x, is multiplied by 1.03, so 1.03 is the multiplier you would use.

Define
{x} =   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x_{1}\\x_{2}\end{array}\right]

Then
x₁ = cos(t) x₁(0) + sin(t) x₂(0)
x₂ = -sin(t) x₁(0) + cos(t) x₂(0)

Differentiate to obtain
x₁' = -sin(t) x₁(0) + cos(t) x₂(0)
x₂' = -cos(t) x₁(0) - sin(t) x₂(0)

That is,
\dot{x} =   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-sin(t)&cos(t)\\-cos(t)&-sin(t)\end{array}\right] x(0)

Note that
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1\\-1&09\end{array}\right]   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos(t)&sin(t)\\-sin(t)&cos(t)\end{array}\right] =  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-sin(t)&cos(t)\\-cos(t)&-sin(t)\end{array}\right]

Therefore
x(t) =   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1\\-1&0\end{array}\right] x(t)

kaheart [24]

Answer:

7000 in the account that paid 9% interest rate and 3000 in the account that paid 8% interest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x be invested in account 1 and $(10000-x) in the second account

Then, 870=x*9/100+(10000-x)*8/100

x=$7,000.

What is does a equal
Blababa [14]

Answer:

<u>a = 13</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We should know that: The sum of the interior angles of the triangle = 180°

Given the measure of the angles: (6a - 2) , (5a - 13) and (5a - 13)

So,

(6a - 2) + (5a - 13) + (5a - 13) = 180°

16 a - 28= 180               ⇒ Add 28 to both sides

16 a = 180 + 28 = 208  ⇒ Divide both sides by 16

a = 208/16 = 13
