Answer:

The amount in the account after six years is $2,288.98

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount that will be in an account that has a principal that is compounded quarterly.

To calculate this amount, we use the formula below

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where P is the amount deposited which is $1,750

r is the rate which is 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045

t is the number of years which is 6 years

n is the number of times per year, the interest is compounded which is 4(quarterly means every 3 months)

we plug these values into the equation

A = 1750( 1 + 0.045/4)^(4 * 6)

A = 1750( 1 + 0.01125)^24

A = 1750( 1.01125)^24

A = 2,288.98

The amount in the account after 6 years is $2,288.98

Which systems of equations intersect at point A in this graph?

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The point of intersection of the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-2, 1)

The correct system of equations intersect at point A in this graph will be:

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x+9\\ y=-3x-5\end{bmatrix}$

Thus, the second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point

A (-2, 1)

Let us check the system of equations to determine whether it intersect at point A in this graph.

Given the system of equations

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x+9\\ y=-3x-5\end{bmatrix}$

Arrange equation variable for elimination

$\begin{bmatrix}y-4x=9\\ y+3x=-5\end{bmatrix}$

$y+3x=-5$

$-$

$\underline{y-4x=9}$

$7x=-14$

so the system of equations becomes

$\begin{bmatrix}y-4x=9\\ 7x=-14\end{bmatrix}$

Solve 7x = -14 for x

$7x=-14$

Divide both sides by 7

$\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{-14}{7}$

Simplify

$x = -2$

For y - 4x = 9 plug in x = 2

$y-4\left(-2\right)=9$

$y+4\cdot \:2=9$

$y+8=9$

Subtract 8 from both sides

$y+8-8=9-8$

Simplify

y = 1

Thus, the solution to the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-2, 1)

From the attached graph, it is also clear that the system of equations intersects at point x = -2, and y = 1.

In other words, the point of intersection of the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-2, 1)

Therefore, the correct system of equations intersect at point A in this graph will be:

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x+9\\ y=-3x-5\end{bmatrix}$

Thus, the second option is correct.

Daisy works at an ice-cream parlor. She is paid $10 per hour for the first 8 hours she works in a day. For every extra hour she

tester [92]

Answer:

The expression giving her net earnings for a day with more than 8 hours worked is X = 80 + 15H, where H means "extra hours worked".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Daisy works at an ice-cream parlor earning $10 per hour for the first 8 hours she works in a day, and 1.5 times her hourly wage for every extra hour she works, in order to know how much can she make in a day working more than 8 hours the following equation has to be made:

X = (8 x 10) + (H x (1.5 x 10))

X = 80 + 15H

Therefore, if Daisy works 13 hours, the equation works as follows:

X = 80 + 15x13

X = 80 + 195

X = 275

Over the last 2.5 years, the water level in a lake has changed by -0.3 feet per year. Scientists predict that the water level wi

klio [65]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"In the last 2.5 years, the water level has decreased 0.75 feet."

In the very first statement it has been stated that over the last 2.5 years, the water level in a lake has changed by -0.3 feet per year. That means in the last 2.5 years , total decrease in level is as follows

2.5 x - 0.3 = - .75 ft .

So the statement is true.

"The overall change of the water level after 7.5 years will be -2.75 feet."

This statement appears to be false based on information provided

No prediction regarding rate of decrease for a period beyond 5 year has been made so any statement with respect to a timeline of 7.5 years may turn out to be false.

"The change in water level each year for the next 5 years will be -0.4 feet. "

This statement prima-facie appears to be true because rate of decrease stated in the statement is 0.4 ft /year for next 5 years .

D )

"The overall change in water level for the next 5 years is equal to 5(0.4)"

this statement is true

as change in one year = .4

change in 5 years = 5 x .4
