Answer:

y = - 3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c (m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = \frac{1}{3} x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{1}{3}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{\frac{1}{3} } = - 3 , thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 5) into the partial equation

5 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 6 = - 1

y = - 3x - 1 ← equation of perpendicular line

Ivan

The future value (A) of a one-time investment of principal amount P at interest rate r compounded n times per year for t years is ...

... A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

Putting your given numbers into the formula, we have

... 876.34 = 300(1 +.06/4)^(4t)

Taking logarithms, this becomes the linear equation

... log(876.34) = log(300) + 4t·log(1.015)

Solving for t in the usual way, we get

... log(876.34) -log(300) = 4t·log(1.015) . . . . . . . subtract the constant term on the right

... (log(876.34) -log(300))/(4·log(1.015)) = t ≈ 18.00 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

It will take <em>18 years</em> for the $300 CD to reach a value of $876.34.
