No. Mike wrote the ratio as the amount of change to the new amount. He should have used the ratio of the amount of change to the original amount, which is 55

55/275 , or 20%.

20%
220 divided by 275 to get .8 
80% then 80% minus 100%

You can identify the slope and y-intersept. The slope is 50 and the y-intercept is (0, 1200). You could also do the x-intercept, which would be the number of months passed when he pays off the debt fully. The x intercept would be (24,0)

A line passes through (2,8) and (4,12) which equation best represents the line
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

y=2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:\solving for the slope you get (12-8)/(4-2)=4/2=2

solving for the y intercept you subtract 4 from 8 because 2*2 is 4 and (2,8) is 2 x values away from the y intercept so 8-4=4 so the y intercept is 4

so y=2x+4

Calculate annually compounded interest
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

$2,851.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets use the compound interest formula to solve:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

<em>P = initial balance</em>

<em>r = interest rate (decimal)</em>

<em>n = number of times compounded annually</em>

<em>t = time</em>

First, change 1.1% into a decimal:

1.1% -> \frac{1.1}{100} -> 0.011

Next, plug the values into the equation:

A=2,700(1+\frac{0.011}{1})^{1(5)}

A=2,851.80

She will have $2,851.80 after 5 years.
