The answer is -1/5 because you have to switch the x to the other side making it a negative. Then you have to divide everything by 5 making your answer y=-1/5+4
<span>The amount P as a function of t (in years) is given by
P(t) = P0 (1 + r/n)^(t n)
So if n = 4, and r = 0.02, and P0 = 1000, then
P(t) = 1000 (1 + 0.02/4)^(4 t) = 1000 (1 + 0.005)^(4 t)
At the end of the first quarter, t = 1/4, so
P(1/4) = $1000 (1.005)^(1) = $1005
At the end of the second quarter, t = 1/2 , therefore
P(1/2) = $1000 (1.005)^(2) = $1000 (1.010025) = $1010.03
At the end of the third quarter , t = 3/4, therefore
P(3/4) = $1000 (1.005)^(3) = $1000 (1.015075125) = $1015.08
At the end of the year, t = 4, therefore
P(1) = $1000 (1.005)^4 = $1000 (1.020150500625) = $1020.15
As for the second question, after the first period (quarter),
the formula becomes
P = P0 (1.005)^1 = 1.005 P0
which is choice A. </span>
Start off by making a ratio and write down the given. From there solve and multiply. Hopefully the picture helps :)
Let c represent the weight of cashews and p the weight of pecans.
Then c + 10 = total weight of the nut mixture.
An equation for the value of the mixture follows:
$1.50(10 lb) + $0.75c = (c+10)($1.00)
Solve this equation for c: 15 + .75c = c + 10. Subtract .75c from both sides:
15 = 1c - 0.75c + 10. Then 5=0.25c, and c = 5/0.25, or 20.
Need 20 lb of cashews.
Check: the pecans weigh 10 lb and are worth $1.50 per lb, so the total value of the pecans is $15. The total value of the cashews is (20 lb)($0.75/lb), or $15. Does (20 lb + 10 lb)($1/lb) = $15 + $15? Yes. So c= 20 lb is correct.
