To find the value of x, you need to set up a proportion.This is the proportion you would set up:
2.5 x
---- = ------
3.75 60
x=40
Yes compund interest is always greater than simple interest
simple interest = principal
compound interest = principal + accumulated interest
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage change is computed as follows:
percent change = ((new value) -(original value))/(original value) × 100%
For your first one, this looks like ...
percent change = ($25 -$75)/$75 × 100% = (-50/75) × 100% = -0.667×100%
percent change = -66.7%

When there are a lot of similar calculations to do, I like to use a spreadsheet. See below for the other percentage changes (rightmost column).
The given equation is

x intercept
To find the x intercept, we have to plug 0 for y and solve for x.That is

So x intercept is (6,0) .
y intercept
To find the y intercept , we have to plug 0 for x and solve for y. That is

So the y intercept is (0,-9) .
