Answer:
y = 4
since you cant have y = 0x + 4, you drop the x and have a straight line (slope of 0) that runs all along the y point of 4.
Answer: $2294 should be invested in the simple interest account while $4588 should be invested in the certificate of deposit.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount that he would deposit in the simple interest account.
Let y represent the amount that he would deposit in the certificate of deposit.
she will deposit twice as much in the certificate of deposit. It means that
y = 2x
Interest from the simple interest account would be 7%. This mean that the interest would be 7/100 × x = $0.07x
Interest from the certificate of deposit account would be 5%. This mean that the interest would be 5/100 × y = $0.05y.
The total interest from both accounts would be $390. It means that
0.07x + 0.05y = 390- - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting y = 2x into equation 1, it becomes
0.07x + 0.05 × 2x = 390
0.07x + 0.1x = 390
0.17x = 390
x = 390/0.17 = $2294
y = 2x = 2 × 2294
y = 4588
-2° was the initial temperature as it dropped to -5°
-2-5=-7
