Answer:
C) 7
===========================================
Work Shown:
Use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Plug in the given slope we want m = -5/3 and also the coordinates of the points. Then isolate r
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
-5/3 = (2-r)/(r-4)
-5(r-4) = 3(2-r) .... cross multiplying
-5r+20 = 6-3r
-5r+20+5r = 6-3r+5r .... adding 5 to both sides
20 = 6+2r
20-6 = 6+2r-6 ....subtracting 6 from both sides
14 = 2r
2r = 14
2r/2 = 14/2 .... dividing both sides by 2
r = 7
The slope of the line through (4,7) and (7,2) should be -5/3, let's check that
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (2-7)/(7-4)
m = -5/3
The answer is confirmed
Answer:
-600
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 10 x 3 x 5 x -1
40 x 15 x -1
600 x -1 = -600
First you have to double the simple interest to get the amount earned in 1 year. That gives $3.56 earned and a total balance of $893.56
r = (1/t)(A/P - 1) t=time, A=amount of money with interest, P=amount invested
r = (1/1)((893.56/890) - 1) = 0.004
r = 0.004
now convert to a decimal to get .04 = 4%
