Answer:

k = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 3 when x = 6, that is

3 = \frac{k}{6} ( multiply both sides by 6 )

18 = k

The constant of variation is k = 18

Steven wishes to save for his retirement by depositing $2,000 at the beginning of each year for thirty years. Exactly one year a
Ad libitum [116K]

Step-by-step explanation:

i = interest 3% for 30 years

This is a simple dynamical system for whom the the solutions are given as

S=R[\frac{(i+1)^n-1}{i}](i+1)

putting values we get

S=2000[\frac{(1.03)^{30}-1}{0.03}](1.03)

= $98005.35

withdrawal of money takes place from one year after last payment

To determine the result we use the present value formula of an annuity date

P = R\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}{i+1}

we need to calculate R so putting the values and solving for R we get

R= $6542.2356

The Expression 4x^2-p(x)+7 leaves a remainder of -2 when divided by (x-3) find the value of p
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

(c)  For p = 15,  4x^2-p(x)+7 leaves a remainder of -2 when divided by (x-3).

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,  The dividend expression is  4x^2-p(x)+7 = E(x)

The Divisor = (x-3)

Remainder  = -2

Now, by <u>REMAINDER THEOREM</u>:

Dividend  = (Divisor x Quotient)  + Remainder

If ( x -3 ) divides the given polynomial with a remainder -2.

⇒  x = 3  is a  solution of given polynomial E(x)  - (-2) =  

E(x)  - (-2)  = 4x^2-p(x)+7 -(-2)  = 4x^2-p(x)+9 =  S(x)

Now, S(3) = 0

⇒4x^2-p(x)+9 = 4(3)^2 - p(3) + 9 = 0\\\implies 36 - 3p + 9 = 0\\\implies 45= 3p , \\or p  =15

or, p =1 5

Hence, for p = 15,  4x^2-p(x)+7 leaves a remainder of -2 when divided by (x-3).

Which equation represents the same line as the points in the table
vodomira [7]

Answer:

y=\frac{-3}{4} x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can find the slope using the slope equation and two of the points.

Slope equation:

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

I'm going to use the first two points just so I can avoid the fraction... Substitute the x and y values into the equation.

m=\frac{2-5}{0--4}

Simplify:

m=\frac{-3}{4}

Now that we have the slope, all we need is the y-intercept. Luckily, it gives it to us in the table. The x value of y-intercepts will always be 0. Looking at the table, we see that the point where x=0 is (0,2). Thus, the y-intercept is 2. Your final equation is

y=\frac{-3}{4} x+2
