Answer:

Cory bought 6.47 gallons

rate of change is $2.78 per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of gas per gallon = $2.78

it means that if one buy 1 gallon he will have to pay $2.78 and similary for each increase in 1 gallon of gallon gas he will have to pay $2.78.

Thus, rate of change is cost of gas per gallon as cost to buy gas changes with the change in quantity of gallon.

Let the quantity of gas bought be x gallon.

Total cost for x gallons = cost of gas per gallon*x = 2.78x

Given that total money paid by him is $18

2.78x = 18

x = 18/2.78 = 6.47

Thus, Cory bought 6.47 gallons

rate of change is $2.78 per gallon

Answer: $4,365.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we know that:

The account starts with $2350

There is a simple interest of 3.75% (or 0.035).

Then after one year, the amount in the account will increase by 3.75%, this means that the amount will be:

$2350 + 0.035*$2350 = (1.035)*$2350.

After another year, we have the same increase (but applied to the new amount in the account):

(1.035)*$2350 + 0.035*(1.035)*$2350. = (1.035)^2*$2350

And so on.

You already can see the pattern here, the amount of money in the saving account after N years will be:

M(N) = $2350*(1.035)^N.

Now we can answer:

what is the balance of the account if it earns a  simple interest of 3.75% for 18 years?

Just replace N by 18 in that equation:

M(18) = $2350*(1.035)^18 = $4,365.10
