To solve this we are going to use the compound interest formula: 
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
where
A is the amount after t years 
P is the initial amount 
r is the interest rate in decimal form 
n is the number of times the interest is compounded per year
t is the time in years.

First, we are going to convert the interest rate to decimal form by divide the rate by 100%:
\frac{5.2}{100} =0.052
Next, we are going to find n. Since the interest is compounded quarterly, it is compounded 4 times per year, so.
n=4

1. For our problem we know that t=2 and P=2000. We also know for our previous calculations that r=0.052 and n=4. So lets replace those values in our compound interest formula to find A:
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
A=2000(1+ \frac{0.052}{4} )^{(2)(4)
A=2000(1+ \frac{0.052}{4})^{8}
A=2217.71
We can conclude that after 2 years the customer will have $2,217.71 in his account.

2. We know for our problem that this time t=5, the initial investment remains the same, so p=2000, and we also know for our previous calculations that r=0.052 and n=4. So lets replace those values in our formula one more time:
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}
A=2000(1+ \frac{0.052}{4} )^{(4)(5)
A=2000(1+ \frac{0.052}{4} )^{20}
A=2589.52
We can conclude that after 5 years the customer will have $2,589.52 in his account.

Jenny has 1 stamp to begin her collection. She then collects 7 stamps per day. Let y represent the total amount of stamps in Jen
lord [1]

Answer:

<em>y=7x+1</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear modeling</u>

Consists of finding a linear equation that represents a situation in real life.

Jenny starts her stamps collection with only 1 stamp.

Then she collects 7 stamps per day.

Let's call

y=total amount of stamps in Jenny's collection

x=number of days

Knowing Jenny collects 7 stamps per day, then in x days, she collects 7x stamps. The total amount can be obtained by adding the first stamp she had. Thus, the model is:

y=7x+1
