Answer:

The correct answer is NO.

Step-by-step explanation:

John is graphing two lines with equations say ax + by + c = 0 and dx + ey +f =0 on his graphing calculator.

For John to get a unique solution the coefficients should follow the following condition \frac{a}{d} \neq \frac{b}{e}. So when he plots the lines he get an intersecting pair of lines.

For John to get no solution the coefficients should follow the following condition \frac{a}{d} = \frac{b}{e} \neq  \frac{c}{f}. When we plot in this case we get two parallel lines.

For John to get an infinite many solution the coefficients should follow the following condition \frac{a}{d} = \frac{b}{e} = \frac{c}{f}. And when we plot the lines in this case we get one line superimposed on the other.

Since after graphing, John sees only one line, the lines must have superimposed on one another giving John an infinite number of solutions.

The principal represents an amount of money deposited in a savings account subject to compound interest at the given rate.
Paul [167]

Answer:

A) Amount in the account after 3 years = $ 7, 883.14

B)  Interest earned = $ 883.14

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to be used is given as

A = P ( 1 + r/n)^nt

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

In the question we are given the following values :

A = final amount = Unknown

P = initial principal balance = $7,000

r = interest rate = 4% = 0.04

n = number of times interest applied per time period = semi annually , n= 2

t = number of time periods elapsed = 3 years

A) Find how much money there will be in the account after the given number of years.

A = P ( 1 + r/n)^nt

A = $7,000 (1 + 0.04/2)²×³

A = $7,000( 1+ 0.04/2)⁶

A = $7,000( 1.02)⁶

A = $ 7,883.14

The amount in the account after 3 years = $ 7,883.14

B. Find the interest earned.

To find the interest earned, we use the formula

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $ 7,000.00

A (Amount after 3 years) = $ 7,883.14

I = A - P

I = $ 7,883.14 - $ 7,000.00

I =$ 883.14

The interest earned = $ 883.14
