Answer:

y = 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Step 1: Find slope m

m = (-1 - 3)/(-2 - 0)

m = -4/-2

m = 2

y = 2x + b

Step 2: Rewrite equation

y = 2x + 3

*You are given y-intercept (0, 3), so simply add it to your equation.

If you invest $100,000 in an account earning 8% interest compounded annually, how long will it take until the account holds $300

Monica [59]

We have been given that you invest $100,000 in an account earning 8% interest compounded annually. We are asked to find the time it will take the amount to reach $300,000.

We will use compound interest formula to solve our given problem.

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

A = Final amount after t years,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

n = Number of times interest is compounded per year,

t = Time in years.

$8\%=\frac{8}{100}=0.08$

$300,000=100,000(1+\frac{0.08}{1})^{1\cdot t}$

$300,000=100,000(1.08)^{t}$

$\frac{300,000}{100,000}=\frac{100,000(1.08)^{t}}{100,000}$

$3=(1.08)^{t}$

$(1.08)^{t}=3$

Let us take natural log on both sides of equation.

$\text{ln}((1.08)^{t})=\text{ln}(3)$

Using natural log property $\text{ln}(a^b)=b\cdot \text{ln}(a)$ , we will get:

$t\cdot \text{ln}(1.08)=\text{ln}(3)$

$\frac{t\cdot \text{ln}(1.08)}{\text{ln}(1.08)}=\frac{\text{ln}(3)}{\text{ln}(1.08)}$

$t=\frac{1.0986122886681097}{0.0769610411361283}$

$t=14.274914586$

Upon rounding to nearest tenth of year, we will get:

$t\approx 14.3$

Therefore, it will take approximately 14.3 years until the account holds $300,000.

Answer:

y = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

${11}^{ - 8} = {11}^{y} \\ \therefore \: - 8 = y \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{ \therefore \: y = - 8}}$
