Answer:

$r=0.05$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

$I=P(rt)$

where

A is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

$t=3\ years\\ P=\$3,000\\I=\$450\\r=?$

substitute in the formula above

$450=3,000(3r)$

solve for r

$450=9,000(r)$

$r=450/9,000$

$r=0.05$

For the equations given below, which statement is true?

allochka39001 [22]

Answer: C. The equations have the same solution because the second equation can be obtained by adding 6 to both sides of the first equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the first equation is:

$-3x-8=19$

And the second equation is:

$-3x-2=25$

According to the Addition property of equality:

If $a=b$ ; then $a+c=b+c$

Then, you can add 6 to both sides of the first equation to keep it balanced. Then, you get:

$-3x-8=19\\\\-3x-8+(6)=19+(6)$

$-3x-2=25$

Therefore, you can observe that the second equation can be obtained by adding 6 to both sides of the first equation, therefore, the equations have the same solution.

If you want to verify this, you can solve for "x" from both equations:

- First equation:

$-3x-8=19\\\\-3x=19+8\\\\x=\frac{27}{-3}\\\\x=-9$

- Second equation:

$-3x-2=25\\\\-3x=25+2\\\\x=\frac{27}{-3}\\\\x=-9$

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

cross multiply - 2(2x-4) = 3(x=1)

4x - 8 = 3x + 3

4x - 3x = 3 + 8

For the funtion f(x)= (x+7)^5, Find f^-1 (x)

quester [9]

Answer:

The inverse of function $f(x)= (x+7)^5$ is $\mathbf{f^{-1} (x)=\sqrt[5]{x}+7}$

Option A is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the function $f(x)= (x+7)^5$ , Find $f^{-1} (x)$

For finding inverse of x,

First let:

$y=(x+7)^5$

Now replace x with y and y with x

$x=(y+7)^5$

Now, solve for y

Taking 5th square root on both sides

$\sqrt[5]{x}=\sqrt[5]{(y+7)^5}\\\sqrt[5]{x}=y+7\\=> y+7=\sqrt[5]{x}\\y=\sqrt[5]{x}-7$

Now, replace y with $f^{-1} (x)$

$f^{-1} (x)=\sqrt[5]{x}+7$

So, the inverse of function $f(x)= (x+7)^5$ is $\mathbf{f^{-1} (x)=\sqrt[5]{x}+7}$

Option A is correct option.
