Answer:

Jenns account has the greater simple interest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is:

A=P*(1+r*t)

Where A is the final amount after investment, P is the initial amount, r is the rate of interest and t is the time periods.

For Lindsey:

253=250*(1+r*1)

Solve for r

r=(253/250)-1=0.012

Lindsey simple interest was 1.2% annually

For Jenn:

257.50=250*(1+r*2)

r=((257.50/250)-1)/2=0.015

Jenn simple interest was 1.5% annually

Therefore Jenns account has the highest simple interest rate.

Find a linear second-order differential equation f(x, y, y', y'') = 0 for which y = c1x + c2x3 is a two-parameter family of solu
Alisiya [41]
Let y=C_1x+C_2x^3=C_1y_1+C_2y_2. Then y_1 and y_2 are two fundamental, linearly independent solution that satisfy

f(x,y_1,{y_1}',{y_1}'')=0
f(x,y_2,{y_2}',{y_2}'')=0

Note that {y_1}'=1, so that x{y_1}'-y_1=0. Adding y'' doesn't change this, since {y_1}''=0.

So if we suppose

f(x,y,y',y'')=y''+xy'-y=0

then substituting y=y_2 would give

6x+x(3x^2)-x^3=6x+2x^3\neq0

To make sure everything cancels out, multiply the second degree term by -\dfrac{x^2}3, so that

f(x,y,y',y'')=-\dfrac{x^2}3y''+xy'-y

Then if y=y_1+y_2, we get

-\dfrac{x^2}3(0+6x)+x(1+3x^2)-(x+x^3)=-2x^3+x+3x^3-x-x^3=0

as desired. So one possible ODE would be

-\dfrac{x^2}3y''+xy'-y=0\iff x^2y''-3xy'+3y=0

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

the answers are c, d, &f

Step-by-step explanation:

the equivalence to 12:3

1200:300. = 12:3 (reduce by 100)

12:3= 4:1 (reduce by 3)

24:6= 12:3 (reduce by 2)

Twice the difference of x and 5
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5

This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.
