A savings account is started with an initial deposit of $700. The account earns 1.5% interest compounded

Mathematics
1 answer:
marusya05 [52]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  (a)  A = 700×1.015^t

  (b)  36.2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Each year, the account value is multiplied by (1 + 1.5%) = 1.015. Repeated multiplication is signified using an exponent. In t years, when the account has been multiplied by 1.015 t times, the account value will be ...

  A = $700×1.015^t

__

(b) You want to find t when A=$1200. Logarithms are involved.

  1200 = 700×1.015^t . . . . use 1200 for A

  1200/700 = 1.015^t . . . . . divide by 700

  log(12/7) = t×log(1.015) . . . . . take logarithms

  log(12/7)/log(1.015) = t ≈ 36.2 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

It will take about 36.2 years for the account balance to reach $1200.

Solve for u
Sergio039 [100]
U/9 = 8/12 u = 6

Step 1: Cancel the common factor (4)

u = 2
—- —-
9 3


Step 2: multiply both sides by 9


9u 2 * 9
—- = ——-
9 3

Step 3: simplify

2 *9 = 18

18 ÷ 3 = 6

Graph the linear equation x-3y=-6
TEA [102]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the easier approaches to graphing a linear equation such as this one is to solve it for y, which gives us both the slope of the line and the y-intercept.

x-3y=-6 → -3y = -x - 6,  or 3y = x + 6.

Dividing both sides by 3, we get   y = (1/3)x + 2.

So the slope of this line is 1/3 and the y-intercept is 2.

Plot a dot at (0, 2).  This is the y-intercept.  Now move your pencil point from that dot 3 spaces to the right and then 1 space up.  Draw a line thru these two dots.  End.

Alternatively, you could use the intercept method.  We have already found that the y-intercept is (0, 2).  To find the x-intercept, let y = 0.  Then x = -6, and the x-intercept is (-6, 0).

Plot both (0, 2) and (-6, 0) and draw a line thru these points.  Same graph.

Lines c and d are perpendicular. The slope of line c is −23. Which equation is true?
Trava [24]

Answer:

1/23

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular slope will be the opposite reciprocal of the original slope so if slope of c is -23, slope of d is 1/23

1.3 x 0.4 x 2 = 1.04
0.5 x 0.4 = 0.2
(\frac{1}{2}(0.5 x 1.2)) x 2 = 0.6

1.04 + 0.2 + 0.6 = 1.84m²
