Answer:

a. P= 5000( 1.016)^x

b. $ 6344.18

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for finding the compound interest annually is

P = P_1 ( 1 +r)^t

Here

P = the amount after the interest has been added or the new balance

P_1= the principal amount

r= rate at which interest is charged

t= time in years

So we have

P = the new balance

P_1= the principal amount= $ 5000

r= rate at which interest is charged= 1.6 %

t= time in years= x

Putting the values in the above equation

P = P_1 ( 1 +r)^t

P = 5000 ( 1+ 1.6/100) ^x

P= 5000( 1.016)^x

b) When t= 15

Again

Putting the values in the above equation

P = P_1 ( 1 +r)^t

P = 5000 ( 1+ 1.6/100)^15

P = 5000( 1.26883637) = 6344.18185= $ 6344.18

Bryan’s monthly electric bill is determined by adding a flat administration fee to the product of the number of kilowatt hours o
Sophie [7]
We will form the equations for this problem:
(1) 1100*y + z = 113
(2) 1500*y + z = 153
z = ? Monthly administration fee is notated with z, and that is the this problem's question.
Number of kilowatt hours of electricity used are numbers 1100 and 1500 respectively.
Cost per kilowatt hour is notated with y, but its value is not asked in this math problem, but we can calculate it anyway.
The problem becomes two equations with two unknowns, it is a system, and can be solved with method of replacement:
(1) 1100*y + z = 113
(2) 1500*y + z = 153
----------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y [insert value of z (right side) into (2) equation instead of z]:
(2) 1500*y + (113 - 1100*y) = 153
-------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 1500*y + 113 - 1100*y = 153
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y + 113 = 153
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y = 153 - 113
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y = 40
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) y = 40/400
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) y = 1/10
------------------------------------------------
if we insert the obtained value of y into (1) equation, we get the value of z:
(1) z = 113 - 1100*(1/10)
(1) z = 113 - 110
(1) z = 3 dollars is the monthly fee.

Your friend has $100 when he goes to the fair. He spends $10 to enter the fair and $20 on food. Rides at the fair cost $2.00 per
zysi [14]
You could use the function: 

f(x)=30+2x
100=30+2x 

In which lets say he rode 3 rides. Plug in 3 for x.

100=30+2(3)

Then Multiply 
100=30+6

Then combine 30 and 6 to get 36.
Then you can subtract 36 from 100 to get 
$64 left over.
