Answer:

$3000 was invested at 11%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total interest was $426.  This was comprised of interest earned at 8% (represented by e) and (separately) interest earned at 11% (represented by v).

Then e + v = $4200 total investment, and  

i = $426 = e(0.08)(1 year) + v(0.11)(1 year)

We eliminate the variable e as follows:  since e + v = $4200, e = $4200 - v.  Thus,

i = $426 = e(0.08)(1 year) + v(0.11)(1 year) becomes:

i = $426 = ($4200 - v)(0.08)(1 year) + v(0.11)(1 year)  

This is one equation in one unknown, the amount of $ invested at 11%.

Performing the indicated multiplications:

426 = 4200(0.08) - 0.08v + 0.11v.  Simplifying this further, we get:

426 = 336 + 0.03v.

Then 90 = 0.03v, and v = 90 / 0.03 = $3000.

$3000 was invested at 11%.

To solve for b, simply divide both sides of the equation by h to get:

bh/h = r/h

b = r/h

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate.

Which function describes this table of values?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2}x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table of function given, you would observe that if you subtract 2 from half of the x-variable values, you'd get the y-variable values.

For example, half of -8 = -4. If you add 2 to -4, you'd get: -4 + 2 = -2. Same applies to other x-values on the table.

Thus, an expression for the function represented by the table values can be written as,

y = \frac{1}{2}x +2
