Answer:

$ 31.925

Step-by-step explanation:

Final Value = a (1+r)^n

a = initial amount, r = appreciation rate, n = no. of time periods

a = 5 , r = 5% = 0.05 , n = 38

5 (1+0.05)^38

5 (1.05)^38

5 (6.385)

= 31.925

What is the equation of this graphed line? Enter your answer in slope-intercept form in the box.

vazorg [7]

Answer:

y = -1/3x - 5

Introduction:

The slope intercept form of a line is y = mx + b. Now, let's start out by solving the slope.

Step-by step explanation:

=> Slope = rise/run = $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$
=> Slope = $\frac{-3- (-7) }{-6-6 }$
=> Slope = $\frac{4}{-12}$
=> Slope = $\frac{-1}{3}$

Since we have found the slope, let's find the y-intercept to create our equation.

=> y-intercept = -5

Conclusion:

Therefore, our new equation is y = -1/3x - 5

What is the degree of the polynomial? 5x² + 8x³ + 4- 6x² - 3x5

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The degree of polynomial is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose the polynomial is $\displaystyle{5x^2+8x^3+4-6x^2-3x^5}$ . To find the which degree this polynomial is, we consider the highest exponent of the term which is $\displaystyle{3x^5}$ , the 5 is our highest degree of the term and thus, 5 is our highest degree of polynomial.
