Using a linear function, it is found that the product rs is rs = 81.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
In this problem, when x changes by 68(from -64 to 68), y changes by -16(from 12 to -4), hence the slope is given by:
m = -16/64 = -0.25.
Hence:
y = -0.25x + b.
When x = 34, y = -4, hence this is used to find b.
-4 = -0.25(34) + b
b = 4.5.
Hence the function is:
y = -0.25x + 4.5.
f(r) = 0, hence:
-0.25x + 4.5 = 0
x = 4.5/0.25
x = 18
r = 18.
f (0) = s, hence s = 4.5.
Then the value of the product is:
rs = 18 x 4.5 = 81.

#SPJ1
To calculate amount accrued after a given period of time we use the compound interest formula: A= P(1+r/100)∧n where A i the amount, P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest and n is the interest period.
In the first part; A= $ 675.54, r= 1.25% (compounded semi-annually) and n =22 ( 11 years ), hence, 675.54 = P( 1.0125)∧22
= 675.54= 1.314P
P= $ 514.109 , therefore the principal amount was $ 514 (to nearest dollar)
Part 2
principal amount (p)= $ 541, rate (r) = 1.2 % (compounded twice a year thus rate for one half will be 2.4/2) and the interest period (n)= 34 (17 years×2)
Amount= 541 (1.012)∧34
= 541 ×1.5
= $ 811.5
Therefore, the account balance after $ 811.5.
Answer:
Kara incorrectly factored 2(16x^2 + 24x + 9) she did not find the correct factors when she factored out. The correct factored expression would be 2(4x+3)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
32x^2 + 48x + 18
2(16x^2 + 24x + 9)
2(16x^2 + 12x) (12x + 9)
2 4x(4x + 3) 3(4x + 3)
2(4x + 3)(4x + 3)
2(4x + 3)^2
