Here is the complete question

A nominal interest rate of 5%

A real interest rate of 5%

A real interest rate of 3%

A nominal interest rate of 3%

Answer:

A real interest rate of 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

A real interest rate of 5% is the best option for oscar. The nominal rate of interest is a type of interest rate that shows the increase in in percentage of money without the depreciation discount that is usually caused by inflation or the payment of tax.

The real rate of interest shows the real increase in the money that has been paid for an investment. This is after inflation has been discounted and all forms of taxes have been paid.

So oscar should invest his $4000 on a savings account whose real interest rate is 5% per year

X squared+ y squared = 2 y = 2x squared – 3 Which of the following describes the system?

cluponka [151]

Answer:

$x=-1,1,-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4} },\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$ and $y=-1,\frac{1}{2}$

The ordered pair solutions are $(-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(-1,-1)$ , and $(1,-1)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming the system is $\left \{ {x^2+y^2=2} \atop {y=2x^2-3}} \right.$ :

$x^2+y^2=2$

$x^2+(2x^2-3)^2=2$

$x^2+(4x^4-12x^2+9)=2$

$x^2+4x^4-12x^2+9=2$

$4x^4-11x^2+9=2$

$4x^4-11x^2+7=0$

$x^4-11x^2+28=0$

$(x^2-7)(x^2-4)=0$

$(4x^2-7)(x^2-1)=0$

$4x^2-7=0$

$4x^2=7$

$x^2=\frac{7}{4}$

$x=\pm\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$

$x^2-1=0$

$x^2=1$

$x=\pm1$

$y=2x^2-3$

$y=2(\pm\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}})^2-3$

$y=2({\frac{7}{4}})-3$

$y=\frac{7}{2}-3$

$y=\frac{1}{2}$

$y=2x^2-3$

$y=2(\pm1)^2-3$

$y=2(1)-3$

$y=2-3$

$y=-1$

Therefore, $x=-1,1,-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4} },\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$ and $y=-1,\frac{1}{2}$

The ordered pair solutions are $(-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(-1,-1)$ , and $(1,-1)$ .

I need help! Someone help me please

liberstina [14]

Answer:

4. 27

Step-by-step explanation:

11-10=1 which is <=16

15-10=5 which is <=16

26-10=16 which is <=16

27-10=17 which isn't <=16

Therefore 27 doesn't satisfy the inequality

Patty made a banner that has an area of 175 square inches. The length and width of the banner are whole numbers. The length is 7

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Length = 35

w = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

l x w = area

7y x y = 175

7y^2 = 175

y^2 = 175/7

y^2=25

y=5

The length is 7y, so it's 5 times 7 or 35.

The width is just y, so it's 5.
