Let's present a solution for the generic case.
The equation will be of the form y=ax+b

If (7,3) is on it, then 3=7a+b
If (14,6) is on it, then 6=14a+b

Now we have a system we can solve.

3=7a+b => b = 3-7a
6=14a + 3-7a => 3 = 7a => a=3/7

b = 3-7*3/7 = 0

So y = (3/7)x is the equation.

What lump sum do parents need to deposit in an account earning 9%, compounded monthly, so that it will grow to $100,000 for thei

gogolik [260]

Answer:

They need to deposit $31,172.49

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A is the amount of money, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for, in years.

In this problem

We want to find P for which $A = 100000$ when $r = 0.09, n = 12, t = 13$
