N x 2 = 12 + 5n
2n - 5n = 12
-3n = 12
3n = -12
n = -4
Answer:
$0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiplier for semi-annual compounding will be ...
(1 + x/2)² = 1 + x + x²/4
The multiplier for annual compounding will be ...
1 + x
The multiplier for semiannual compounding is greater by ...
(1 + x + x²/4) - (1 + x) = x²/4
Maria's interest will be greater by $1000×(x²/4) = $250x², where x is a decimal fraction.
If x is a percent value, as in x = 6 when x percent = 6%, then the difference amount is ...
$250·(x/100)² = $0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points
_____
<u>Example</u>:
For x percent = 6%, the difference in interest earned on $1000 for one year is $0.025×6² = $0.90.
Let s = northbound train
Then
2s = southbound train
:
Distance = time * speed
4s + 4(2s) = 600
:
4s + 8s = 600
:
12s = 600
:
s = 600/12
:
s = 50 mph is the northbound train
Then
2(50) = 100 mph is the southbound train
:
:
Check:
4(50) + 4(100) = 600
Multiplying x^2 by 5 stretches the graph vertically by a factor of 5. Try graphing both x^2 and 5x^2 and see for yourself that this is correct.
Assuming that all tiles must stay whole it would be:
