Answer:
a. the investment earns 4%
b. yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The "rule of 72" says that an investment earning compound interest at x% will double in value after 72/x years. That is, ...
f(x) = 72/x
__
<h3>a.</h3>
We interpret f(4) to mean Becky's friend is interested in the doubling time for an investment that earns 4% interest.
__
<h3>b.</h3>
Using the above formula, ...
f(4) = 72/4 = 18
The friend's math is correct.
Answer:
(3, - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 4y = -11
2x + 3y = -9
Multiply the top equation by 2 and the bottom equation by - 5 to cancel out the x's.
10x - 8y = - 22
- 10x - 15y = 45
Cancel out x's.
-8y = - 22
- 15y = 45
Add like terms.
- 23y = 23
Can't have a negative variable to flip them.
-23 = 23y
Divide.
y = - 1
Input y into one of the equations and solve for x.
2x + 3(-1) = -9
Simplify.
2x -3 = -9
Cancel out -3 by adding 3.
2x = -6
Divide.
x - -3
