What is the interest rate of each investment if The annual interest on a $17,000 investment exceeds the interest earned on an $8

000 investment by $276. The $17,000 is invested at a 0.3% higher rate of interest than the $8000?

<u>Solution-</u>

Let's assume, the rate of interest of $8000 is x%,

then the rate of interest of $17000 is (x+0.3x) =1.3x%

Interest earned by $8000,

i_1=\frac{8000\times x\times 1}{100} =80x

Interest earned by $17,000,

i_2=\frac{17000\times 1.3x\times 1}{100} =221x

According to the question,

\Rightarrow i_1=i_2+276

\Rightarrow 221x=80x+276

\Rightarrow 221x-80x=276

\Rightarrow 141x=276

\Rightarrow x=1.96

∴ Rate of interest of $8000 is 1.96% and rate of interest of $17000 is (1.3×1.96) =2.55%

1. What is an equation for the line with slope 2/3 and y-intercept 9?
Monica [59]
Question 1:

 The generic equation of the line is given by:
 y = mx + b&#10;
 Where,
 m: slope of the line
 b: cutting point with the y axis
 Substituting values ​​we have:
 y = \frac{2}3}x + 9&#10;
 Answer:
 an equation for the line with slope 2/3 and y-intercept is:
 y = \frac{2}3}x + 9

 Question 2:

 The standard equation of the line is given by:
 y-yo = m (x-xo)&#10;
 Where,
 m: slope of the line
 (xo, yo): ordered pair that belongs to the line
 The slope of the line is:
 m =  \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}
 Substituting values:
 m = \frac{1-(-3)}{3-1}
 m = \frac{1+3}{3-1}
 m = \frac{4}{2}
 m = 2&#10;
 We choose an ordered pair:
 (xo, yo) = (3, 1)&#10;
 Substituting values:
 y-1 = 2 (x-3)&#10;
 Rewriting:
 y = 2x - 6 + 1&#10;&#10;y = 2x - 5
 Answer:
 An equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the points (1, -3) and (3,1) is:
 y = 2x - 5&#10;

 Question 3:

 For this case, since the variation is direct, then we have an equation of the form:
 y = kx&#10; Where,
 k: constant of variation.
 We then have the following equation:
 -4y = 8x&#10; Rewriting we have:
 y = \frac{8}{-4}x&#10;
 y = -2x&#10; Therefore, the constate of variation is given by:
 k = -2&#10;
 Answer:
 the constant of variation is:
 k = -2

 Question 4:

 For this case, since the variation is direct, then we have an equation of the form:
 y = kx&#10; Where,
 k: constant of variation.
 We must find the constant k, for this we use the following data:
 y = 24 when x = 8
 Substituting values:
 24 = k8&#10; Clearing k we have:
 k =  \frac{24}{8} &#10;
 k = 3&#10;
 Therefore, the equation is:
 y = 3x&#10; Thus, substituting x = 10 we have that the value of y is given by:
 y = 3 (10)&#10;&#10;y = 30 Answer:
 the value of y when x = 10 is:
 y = 30
