The formula to find the amount is
here A is amount
P is the principal
'r' is the rate of interest
n is the number of years.
Case 1.
Stevan invests
P =$ 20,000
r = 3% = 0.03
n = 10 years
Hence the interest earned
= A - P = 26878.33 - 20000 = $6878.33
Case 2.
Evan invests
P = $10,000
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 7 years
Hence the interest earned
= A - P = 16057.81 - 10000 = 6057.81
Difference in the interest = 6878.33 - 6057.81 = $820.52
Rounded to the nearest dollar difference in interest = $821
Draw a cartesian graph and draw the points in , then see where c should be to get a right angled triangle
6(2x - 11) + 15 = 21
First step use distributive property on the left side to remove the parenthesis, to do this multiply 6 by each term inside the parenthesis:
12x - 66 + 15 = 21
Second step, simplify the left side by combining the like terms:
12x - 51 = 21
Third step, add 51 to both sides of the equation:
12x = 72
Last step, divide both sides by 12:
x = 72/12
x = 6
y = mx + b
m = slope or rate of change
b = y-intercept
x = input
y = output
