Answer:
$16,000 should be invested in the 4.25% bond
Step-by-step explanation:
Attached is the full solution
circumference = 2 x pi x r
using 3.14 for pi
2 x3.14x114=715.92
round to 716 yards
This is a horizontal line passing through the point (0,-1).
Slope = zero.
It does represent a direct variation.
Direct variation: y = kx
y varies directly with x
Your equation 2y = 5x + 1 is in the form of y = kx but we need to divide out the 2 from 2y so we have the following
2y = 5x + 1
2y / 2 = 5 x/ 2 + 1/2
y = 5x / 2 + 1/2
y = kx
k = 5/2
k = constant of variation = 5/2
[x] represents floor function also called as Greatest integer function.
Floor function is the function that takes as input a real number and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to.
like [1.5]=1
[0.7]=0
[-0.3]=-1
Now we have to find set of x-values which satisfies equation [x-1]=[x]
Due to -1 in [x-1], it always produces output value one less than value of [x]
for example when x=0.5 then [x]=[0.5]=0, [x-1]=[0.5-1]=[-0.5]=-1
when x=1.5 then [x]=[1.5]=1, [x-1]=[1.5-1]=[0.5]=0
when x=3 then [x]=[3]=3, [x-1]=[3-1]=[2]=2
From above results we can see that there is no value of x which satisfies the given equation [x-1]=[x]
Hence there is NO solution.
