Maggie has $14,100 to invest, and wishes to gain $4,000 in interest over the next eight years. Approximately what is the minimum

Simple interest doesn't compound, so we just find the interest she needs by dividing 4,000 by 8, and then divide that number by her principal to find the rate of interest.

4,000 ÷ 8 = 500
She needs 500 dollars per year in interest.

800 ÷ 14,100 = .0355 = 3.55%

A, B, and C are collinear, and B is between A and C. The ratio of AB to BC is 3 : 1.

S_A_V [24]

Coordinates of point C: (1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, A, B and C are collinear, and B is between A and C.

The ratio AB : BC is 3 : 1.

This means that we can write the following two equations:

$x_B-x_A = 3(x_C-x_B)\\y_B-y_A=3(y_X-y_B)$
