What is the key difference between simple interest and compound interest, and how does this difference affect the effectiveness

of each?

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount of a loan so it is relatively easier to calculate than the compound interest.

The compound interest is calculated on the principle amount plus the interest that the amount gets per compounding period up to the period of the loan. In other words, in compound interest we get, interest on interest.

This difference between the both, is the reason, we get more money in compound interest than simple one.

Let us take an example-

Suppose the principle is = $5000

r = 5% or 0.05

t = 5 years

Simple interest formula is :

p\times r\times t

=> 5000\times0.05\times5=1250

So, total amount after 5 years will become = 5000+1250=6250 dollars.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lets check for compound interest where the interest is compounded annually.

p = $5000

r = 5% or 0.05

t = 5 years

n = 1

Compound interest formula is :

A=p(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

A=5000(1+\frac{0.05}{1} )^{5}

=>A=5000(1.05)^{5}

A = $6381.40

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We can see that we are getting more money in compound interest than the simple interest, for the same amount and same time period.

Write an equation for the line parallel to y= -2x+1 that contains (-2,5)
grin007 [14]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallels line have the same slope, when an equation is in the form y= mx + b, m is the slope. In this problem slope = - 2

Now with the slope what is missing is the y-intercept, the problem says that the line contains the point (-2, 5), replacing that point in the equation you can solve it to find the y-intercept

y = mx + b

5 = (-2)(-2) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 + b

y = - 2x +1

Use undetermined coefficient to determine the solution of:y"-3y'+2y=2x+ex+2xex+4e3x​
Kitty [74]

First check the characteristic solution: the characteristic equation for this DE is

<em>r</em> ² - 3<em>r</em> + 2 = (<em>r</em> - 2) (<em>r</em> - 1) = 0

with roots <em>r</em> = 2 and <em>r</em> = 1, so the characteristic solution is

<em>y</em> (char.) = <em>C₁</em> exp(2<em>x</em>) + <em>C₂</em> exp(<em>x</em>)

For the <em>ansatz</em> particular solution, we might first try

<em>y</em> (part.) = (<em>ax</em> + <em>b</em>) + (<em>cx</em> + <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + <em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

where <em>ax</em> + <em>b</em> corresponds to the 2<em>x</em> term on the right side, (<em>cx</em> + <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) corresponds to (1 + 2<em>x</em>) exp(<em>x</em>), and <em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>) corresponds to 4 exp(3<em>x</em>).

However, exp(<em>x</em>) is already accounted for in the characteristic solution, we multiply the second group by <em>x</em> :

<em>y</em> (part.) = (<em>ax</em> + <em>b</em>) + (<em>cx</em> ² + <em>dx</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + <em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

Now take the derivatives of <em>y</em> (part.), substitute them into the DE, and solve for the coefficients.

<em>y'</em> (part.) = <em>a</em> + (2<em>cx</em> + <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + (<em>cx</em> ² + <em>dx</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 3<em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

… = <em>a</em> + (<em>cx</em> ² + (2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>)<em>x</em> + <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 3<em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

<em>y''</em> (part.) = (2<em>cx</em> + 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + (<em>cx</em> ² + (2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>)<em>x</em> + <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 9<em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

… = (<em>cx</em> ² + (4<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>)<em>x</em> + 2<em>c</em> + 2<em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 9<em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

Substituting every relevant expression and simplifying reduces the equation to

(<em>cx</em> ² + (4<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>)<em>x</em> + 2<em>c</em> + 2<em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 9<em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

… - 3 [<em>a</em> + (<em>cx</em> ² + (2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>)<em>x</em> + <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 3<em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)]

… +2 [(<em>ax</em> + <em>b</em>) + (<em>cx</em> ² + <em>dx</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + <em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)]

= 2<em>x</em> + (1 + 2<em>x</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 4 exp(3<em>x</em>)

… … …

2<em>ax</em> - 3<em>a</em> + 2<em>b</em> + (-2<em>cx</em> + 2<em>c</em> - <em>d</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 2<em>e</em> exp(3<em>x</em>)

= 2<em>x</em> + (1 + 2<em>x</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 4 exp(3<em>x</em>)

Then, equating coefficients of corresponding terms on both sides, we have the system of equations,

<em>x</em> : 2<em>a</em> = 2

1 : -3<em>a</em> + 2<em>b</em> = 0

exp(<em>x</em>) : 2<em>c</em> - <em>d</em> = 1

<em>x</em> exp(<em>x</em>) : -2<em>c</em> = 2

exp(3<em>x</em>) : 2<em>e</em> = 4

Solving the system gives

<em>a</em> = 1, <em>b</em> = 3/2, <em>c</em> = -1, <em>d</em> = -3, <em>e</em> = 2

Then the general solution to the DE is

<em>y(x)</em> = <em>C₁</em> exp(2<em>x</em>) + <em>C₂</em> exp(<em>x</em>) + <em>x</em> + 3/2 - (<em>x</em> ² + 3<em>x</em>) exp(<em>x</em>) + 2 exp(3<em>x</em>)
