Answer:

Answer: $607.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

 $607.75

Step-by-step explanation:

As a first approximation, compound interest will be slightly higher than simple interest for a relatively short time period. Here simple interest at 5% for 4 years will add 4×5% = 20% to the value, adding about $100 to the initial $500 value. That is, we expect the value in 4 years to be slightly more than $600.

The appropriate answer choice is $607.75.

_____

The actual amount can be calculated using the multiplier 1.05 for each of the 4 years, or 1.05^4 ≈ 1.21550625 for the entire period. Then the predicted item value is ...

 $500 × 1.21550625 = $607.753125 ≈ $607.75

Which of the following is an equation for the plane through the point (1, 1, −1) and parallel
Bas_tet [7]

The given plane, x-y+z=3, has normal vector \vec n = \langle1,-1,1\rangle. Any plane parallel to this one has the same normal vector.

Let (x,y,z) be any point in the plane we want. The plane contains the point (1, 1, -1), so an arbitrary vector in this plane is

\langle x,y,z\rangle - \langle 1,1,-1\rangle = \langle x-1, y-1, z+1 \rangle

and this is perpendicular to \vec n.

So the equation of the plane is

\langle x-1, y-1, z+1 \rangle \cdot \vec n = 0 \implies (x-1) - (y-1) + (z+1) = 0 \implies \boxed{x - y + z = -1}

or equivalently,

\boxed{-x + y - z = 1}

Solve this please with steps b^4-3b^3-10b^2
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There's no "solving" to be done because its an expression, but im assuming the question wants you to factor.

b^4-3b^3-10b^2

First, factor out a b^2

b^2(b^2-3b-10)

Factor the trinomial. What two numbers multiply to equal -10 but add to equal -3? They are -5 and +2

b^2((b-5)(b+2))

Theresa is comparing the graphs of y=2x and y=5x. Which statement is true?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Both graphs have a “y-intercept” at (0,0), so i believe the answer would be they don’t have y intercepts

What is the answer for (a^2+12c)÷7b-1
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Integer roots:

a = 6 n + 1, b = 7, c = -3 n^2 - n, n element Z

a = 6 n + 5, b = 7, c = -3 n^2 - 5 n - 2, n element Z

Derivative:

d/da(1/7 (a^2 + 12 c) b - 1) = (2 a b)/7

Indefinite integral:

integral(-1 + 1/7 b (a^2 + 12 c)) da = (a^3 b)/21 + (12 a b c)/7 - a + constant
