Sheldon invests $15,000 in an account earning 3% interest, compounded annually for 12 years. Seven years after Sheldon's initial

investment, Howard invests $15,000 in an account earning 6% interest, compounded annually for 5 years. Given that no additional deposits are made, compare the balances of the two accounts after the interest period ends for each account. (round to the nearest dollar)

\bf ~~~~~~ \stackrel{Sheldon}{\textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$15000\\
r=rate\to 3\%\to \frac{3}{100}\to &0.03\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years\to &12
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=15000\left(1+\frac{0.03}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 12}\implies A=15000(1.03)^{12}\implies A\approx 21386.41

Natural numbers are whole and positive numbers that are not 0.

If n is 2, there is one natural number less than n... and that is 1.

If n is 5, there are four natural numbers less than n... which are 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Plz help me with the answer
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

<h2>y = 4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Put x = 9 to the equation 3x + 4y = 43

(3)(9) + 4y = 43

27 + 4y = 43            <em>subtract 27 from both sides</em>

4y = 16            <em>divide both sides by 4</em>

y = 4

Can you show the work for (4x-4)(x-4)
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

4x² - 20x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(4x - 4)(x - 4)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

4x(x - 4) - 4(x - 4) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 4x² - 16x - 4x + 16 ← collect like terms

= 4x² - 20x + 16
