We can set up an equation.

.05 * 2^(n-1)

n being the nth term in the sequence

Plug in and solve.

.05 * 2^(20-1)

.05 * 2^19

.05 * 524, 288

The 20th term would be 262, 144.

consider the equation is Y equals 1/square root of x and y=x-2. approximate solution of the system equations

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$x=1$ and $x=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following system of equations:

$y=\sqrt{x}$ and $y=x-2$

To solve the problem, we need to equal the two equations:

$x-2=\sqrt{x}$ ⇒ $(x-2)^{2} =x$ ⇒ $x^{2} -4x + 4 = x$

⇒ $x^{2} -5x + 4 = 0$

So you need to find two numbers that added equal to 5 and multiplied equal to 4. These two numbers are $x=-1$ and $x=-4$ .

Then, the factorized form of the polynomial is: $(x-1)(x-4)$ .

The, the solution to the system of equations is: $x=1$ and $x=4$ .

$35,125 loan, a feat which took ten years of quarterly payments. The loan had an interest rate of 7.44%, compounded quarterly. I

Darya [45]

First find the amount of each payment:
$35,125 = P(\frac{(1+i)^{40} -1}{i (1+i)^{40}}) , i = \frac{.0744}{4} \\ \\ P = 1252.70$

The total cost will be 40 payments plus service charges.
$40*1252.70 + 5180.70 = 55,288.90$

The percentage is the service charge divided by total cost:
$X = \frac{5180.70}{ 55,288.90} = .0937 = 9.37\%$
