Let's split these two situations up.
Linda
Linda deposits $1,800 into an account that pays 7.5% interest, compounded.
The equation:
1,800× 1.075^x=y
Let's put in 10 for x.
1.075^10= 2.06103156 × 1,800= 3,709.85681≈ 3,710
Anna
Anna deposits $4,000 into an account that pays 5% interest, compounded.
The equation:
4,000× 1.05^x=y
Let's put in 10 for x.
1.05×10= 1.62889463×4,000= 6515.57852= 6516
A) Linda's account: $3,710
Anna's account: $6,516
Okay. So, the line shaded would have to be left to 2, because it's less than 2. In that case, A and C are eliminated, because they shade to the right, not left. B and D do this, but wait. The dotted line has to represent the less than, because the one that's fully filled in would mean less than or equal to. B would make sense, because the line is dotted and that makes an inequality symbol of less than, not less than or equal to. The answer is B.
Note: When the sign is < or >, the line on the graph is dotted. If the sign is <= or >=, then the line on the graph is solid.
The intercept are the number of each of the pots used when no soil was put in the other pot.
When no soil was put in the large pots, then 120/5 = 24 small pots will be filled.
When no soil was put in the small pots, then 120/12 = 10 large pots will be filled.
THerefore, the points labelled are (24, 0) and (0, 10)
If the area is 64 times greater then the perimeter is the square root of 64 times greater or 8 times greater.
