Answer:

-$1000

Step-by-step explanation:

(3800 - x)*3.5/100 = (3800 + x)*6/100

(3800 - x)7/200 = 3/50(3800 + x)

3800 - x = 12/7(3800 + x)

3800 - x = 45600/7 + 12x/7

(19x + 19000)/7 = 0

19x = -19000

x = -$1000.

The minus implies that the investment must occur in the first account, not the second. It wouldn't make sense to add more money into the second account, because the second account already exceeds the $188 interest with the amount it has in there. Therefore $1000 must be added from the second account and invested into the first.

Oduvanchick [21]
A(n)=a(1)+d(n-1),    d=a(16)-a(15)=-5-(-53)=48
a(15)=a(1)+d*(15-1),  
-53=a(1)+48*(15-1),
a(1)=-53-48*14= -725
a(n)=-725+48(n-1)

What is the equation of the line perpendicular to 2x − 5y = −35 that contains the point (10, 4)?
Gnoma [55]
Perpendicular has slope that multiplies to -1 in other sloope

thsi one

2x-5y=-35
-5y=-2x-35
y=2/5x+7
slope=2/5
2/5 times -5/2=-1
y=-5/2x+b
findn b
(10,4)
(x,y)
4=-5/2(10)+b
4=-25+b
21=b
y=-5/2x+21
2y=-5x+42
5x+2y=42
