Step-by-step explanation:
I would say the area its getting built. imagine wanting to build a house but you can't dig the sewer (if thats the spelling) pipes bc the area you want doesn't have any water or something like that. definitely money. without it, you can't do anything, you can't buy materials or even hire people to help you because you cannot tell me that you can build a house on your own. Another I would say is Labor cause like I said, if you ain't got nobody to help you, you're probably going to take a few years or more. so if you want to build a house in an area where there is a few architects and designers, you're just going to have to suck it up and get what you get.
Answer: $4,365.10
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, we know that:
The account starts with $2350
There is a simple interest of 3.75% (or 0.035).
Then after one year, the amount in the account will increase by 3.75%, this means that the amount will be:
$2350 + 0.035*$2350 = (1.035)*$2350.
After another year, we have the same increase (but applied to the new amount in the account):
(1.035)*$2350 + 0.035*(1.035)*$2350. = (1.035)^2*$2350
And so on.
You already can see the pattern here, the amount of money in the saving account after N years will be:
M(N) = $2350*(1.035)^N.
Now we can answer:
what is the balance of the account if it earns a simple interest of 3.75% for 18 years?
Just replace N by 18 in that equation:
M(18) = $2350*(1.035)^18 = $4,365.10
A.
B.
Megan's solution isn't correct.
The first mistake: she subtracted 5x from the right-hand side of the equation, but added 5x to the left-hand side.
The second mistake: she divided the right-hand side of the equation by 11, but didn't divide the left-hand side.
The correct solution:
For these problems you have to use PEMDAS so for problem 15 you would do the parentheses first, (21-3) you get 18 and then exponents, 3^2, you get 9, no multiplication but there is division so take your answers, 18 and 9 and divide them, you get 2, so the answer to 15 is 2.
