Answer:

$30.88

Step-by-step explanation:

The account value is given by ...

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

where P is the principal invested, r is the annual interest rate, t is the number of years, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year.

The amount of interest earned is the account value less the initial investment:

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

Filling in the given values, we get ...

I = 500((1 +.03/12)^(12·2) -1) = 500(1.0025^24 -1) ≈ $30.88

The amount of interest earned is $30.88.

What is the equation of the line through 4.2 and 0, -2?

MissTica

Answer:

y = x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b as an equation

m = slope

slope = (change in y) / (change in x) = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = (y₁-y₂)/(x₁-x₂) = (2-(-2))/(4-0) = 4/4 = 1

y = 1*x + b

plug a value in, e.g. (0, -2)

-2 = 1 * 0 + b

-2 = b

our equation is thus

y = x - 2

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week. Write and solve an equation to represent the number of minute

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

Chore time in minutes

Sweeping 42

Dishes ?

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week

Total of 70 minutes spent

42 minutes spent in sweeping . to find the number of minutes Amanda spent in washing the dishes , subtract 42 minutes from the total time spent

let x be the number of minutes spent washing the dishes

$42+x=70$

To solve for x , subtract 42 from both sides

$42+x=70\\x= 70-42\\x=28$

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.
