Answer:

The second, third and fourth are parallel to the given equation

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine if the slopes are the same, put all of the equations in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b. In order for lines in this form to be parallel, the m values of each have to be the exact same number, in our case, 4. Equation 2 has a 4 in the m position, just like the given, so that one is easy. Equation 2 is parallel.

Let's solve the third equation for y:

12x - 3y = 6 so

-3y = -12x + 6 and

y = 4x - 2. Equation 3 is parallel since there is a 4 in the m position.

Let's solve the fourth equation for y:

-20x + 5y = 45 so

5y = 20x + 45 and

y = 4x + 9. Equation 4 is also parallel since there is a 4 in the m position.

Answer:

Using continuous interest 6.83 years before she has $1600.

Using continuous compounding, 6.71 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

$A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Continuous compounding:

The amount of money earned after t years in continuous interest is given by:

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$
