Your interest formula is given to you.
<span>Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring) </span>
<span>Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100 </span>
<span>How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise, prices are going up faster than you're saving. </span>
<span>Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782 </span>
<span>How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest. </span>
<span>Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power. </span>
Answer:
x = 8, and y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 variables, so you need 2 equations to form a system of equations in two variables.
The upper left triangle has all angle measures given: 100, 2x + y, 5x + y. We know that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180.
First equation:
100 + 2x + y + 5x + y = 180
Simplify:
7x + 2y = 80 (First equation)
Now we see that the upper and lower sides are parallel, so alternate interior angles are congruent. The angles measuring 2x + y and 5x - y are alternate interior angles and are congruent.
Second equation:
2x + y = 5x - y
Simplify:
3x - 2y = 0 (Second equation)
Now we use the first equation and the second equation as a system of simultaneous equations to solve for x and y.
7x + 2y = 80
3x - 2y = 0
Solve the second equation for 2x.
3x = 2y
Now replace 2y in the first equation with 3x.
7x + 3x = 80
10x = 80
x = 8
Replace x with 8 in the second equation.
3(8) - 2x = 0
24 = 2x
x = 12
Answer: x = 8, and y = 12
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a linear function is given as:
y = mx + b;
where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of variable y.
A) Since there is B bacteria in the Petri dish at 12:00 midnight and the number of bacteria increases after midnight by 25 every hour. Let h represent the time in hours and T represent the total number of bacteria, therefore the equation is:
T = 25h + B
B) Given that B = 5, h = 6, hence:
T = 25(6) + 5 = 150 + 5 = 155 bacteria
C) The equation of the graph is:
T = 25h + 5
The graph was plotted using geogebra online graphing.
