Answer:
a. Parallel
b. Not parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Systems which have no solutions are parallel lines. These lines do not intersect and therefore have no solution. Remember, parallel lines have the same slope. Compare the slope in each equation when in y=mx+b format to see if they are parallel.
a. y= 2x + 3 y-2x=-3 becomes y = 2x - 3
m = 2 m= 2
The slopes are the same so these are parallel lines.
b. 3x + y = 2 becomes y= -3x + 2 y = 1/3 x + 1/2
m = -3 m= 1/3
The slopes are different so this is not parallel.
Since -3 and 1/3 are the negative reciprocals of each other. These lines are actually perpendicular.
Use compound interest formula F=P(1+i)^n twice, one for each deposit and sum the two results.
For the P=$40,000 deposit,
i=10%/2=5% (semi-annual)
number of periods (6 months), n = 6*2 = 12
Future value (at end of year 6),
F = P(1+i)^n = 40,000(1+0.05)^12 = $71834.253
For the P=20000, deposited at the START of the fourth year, which is the same as the end of the third year.
i=5% (semi-annual
n=2*(6-3), n = 6
Future value (at end of year 6)
F=P(1+i)^n = 20000(1+0.05)^6 = 26801.913
Total amount after 6 years
= 71834.253 + 26801.913
=98636.17 (to the nearest cent.)
I honestly don't know, but I think it is 63
D. If you were to graph this, the vertex would be at (9/8,101/4), or (1.13,25.25).
