Amy is 9 years older than her brother john. their combined age is 23. write an expression to represent johns age (use x)

1 answer:

8 0

Let x the age of John
Amy's age = x + 9
from question, we get,
John's age + Amy's age = 23
x+(x+9)= 23
=> x + x + 9 = 23
=> 2x = 23 - 9
=> x = 14/2
=> x = 7

Answer:

12. $1,035,057.23

13. $988,881.23

14. $7,762.93

15. $8,686.16

16. $967,647.66

Step-by-step explanation:

The annuity and amortization formulas are used for problems like this.

sum of monthly payments = P((1 +r/12)^(12t) -1)/(r/12)

monthly amount available = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t))

12. The sum of monthly payments of 74, accumulated at 9% compounded monthly for 52 years is ...

A = ($74)((1 +.09/12)^(12·52) -1)/(.09/12) = $1,035,057.23

13. The total of payments is ...

$74×12×52 = $46,176

So, the interest earned is ...

$1,035,057.23 -46,176 = $988,881.23

14. The amount available in perpetuity is the monthly interest on this account balance.

$1,035,057.23 × .09/12 = $7,762.93

15. The monthly amount available for 25 years is found from the amortization formula:

A = $1,035,057.23(.09/12)/(1 -(1 +.09/12)^(-12·25)) = $8686.16

16. The amortization formula is used for this, too.

8066 = P(.094/12)/(1 -(1 +.094/12)^(-12·30)) = 0.00833568P

P = $8066/0.00833568 = $967,647.66

Does anyone know how to Graph f(x)=51(2)^x

3241004551 [841]

This is an exponential function.

If x = 0, 2^x = 2^0 = 1. The beginning value of 2^x is 1 and the beginning value of 51*2^x is 51.

Make a table and graph the points:

x y=51*2^x point (x,y)
-- --------------- ---------------
0 51 (0,51)
2 51*2^2 = 51(4) = 204 (2,204) and so on.

The graph shows up in both Quadrants I and II. Its y-intercept is (0,51). Its slope is always positive.
