Maggie is considering two investments. Investment A Investment B Principal $10,000 $8,000 Interest rate 3% 2.8% Time in years 5

lana [24]

To solve this we are going to use the simple interest formula: $A=P(a+rt)$
where
$A$ is the final amount.
$P$ is the initial investment.
$r$ is the interest rate in decimal form.
$t$ is the time in years.

Investment A. We know that the initial investment is $10,000, so $P=10000$ . We also know that the number of years is 5, so $t=5$ . To convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide the rate by 100%
$r= \frac{3}{100} =0.03$
Lets replace those values in our formula to find $A$ :
$A=P(a+rt)$
$A=10000(1+0.03*5)$
$A=11500$

Investment B. $P=8000$ , $t=15$ , and $r= \frac{2.8}{100} =0.028$ .
$A=P(a+rt)$
$A=8000(1+0.028*15)$
$A=11360$

We can conclude that investment A will be worth than investment B at the end of the investment period.

Which pair of slopes could represent parallel lines?

ddd [48]

M = -3, m = -9/3

because when you divide -9/3, you get -3, so the slopes would be the same.
If the slopes are the same (and their intercepts are different) then that pair of slopes represents parallel lines!
