Answer:

Time = 6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Data;

Simple interest = $507.50

Principal = $290

Rate = 12.5% = 12.5/100 = 0.125

Time = ?

To solve this question, we'll need to use the formula for simple interest

S.I = PRT / 100

Or

S.I = P(1 + RT)

S.I = simple interest

P = principal

R = rate

T = time

S.I = P(1 + RT)

507.50 = 290(1 + 0.125*T)

507.50 = (290 × 1) + (290 * 0.125T)

507.50 = 290 + 36.25T

Solve for T

36.25T = 507.50 - 290

36.25T = 217.50

T = 217.50 / 36.25

T = 6

The time tenure on the loan was 6 years

Write a linear equation that passes through the points(2,-2) and (0,1)
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Slope intercept: y = -3/2x + 1

Point slope: y + 2 = -3/2 * (x - 2) [Forgot to add the work for this, I will add it if you need it, feel free to ask.]

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (change in y)/change in x)

But also

m = y_2 - y_1/x_2 - x_1


So lets substitute

m = 1 - (-2)/0 - (2)

Lets find the slope

m = 3/0 - (2)

m = 3/-2

m = -3/2 (Moved the negative)

Now we find the value of b using the equation of a line.

y = mx + b

y = (-3/2) * x + b

y = (-3/2) * (2) + b

-2 = (-3/2) * (2) + b

Now we find the value of b

Lets rewrite

-3/2 * 2 + b = -2

Cancel the CF of 2

-3 + b = -2

Move the terms without b to the right

b = -2 + 3

b = 1

Now we substitute our values of the slope and y-int into y = mx + b to find the equation.

y = -3/2x + 1

Find the indicated limit, if it exists. limit of f of x as x approaches 9 where f of x equals x plus 9 when x is less than 9 and
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

B. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

For the function

f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+9,\ \ x

we can find the value of the function for all x that are very close to 9 but are less than 9 and for all values of x that are very close to 9 but are greater than 9.

1. For x

\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}f(x)=\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}(x+9)=9+9=18

2. For x\ge 9:

\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}f(x)=\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}(27-x)=27-9=18

So, limit exists and is equal to 18.
