Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x-8= 16
-2x-4=8
16-8= 8
8+3= 11
Think of the equation of a linear function:
Recall y = mx + b for vertical shifts, we just add or subtract from 'b' and that will move the line up or down accordingly.. However, for horizontal shifts, we will need to add or subtract from 'x'. Note that the slope or 'm' stays the same for each type of shift.
Now that we know how the shifts occur, we might consider a different form of the equation for a linear function: y = a(x - h) + k here the 'a' is just our slope, 'k' is our original y intercept, and 'h' will represent the amount of horizontal shift.
So to get the desired transformations of a horizontal shift to the left of 8 and a vertical shift of down 3 from our original function y = x, we can make the following changes: y = (x + 8) - 3 Now you might be confused with how we got the 'x + 8'.. Let's consider values of 'h'. For positive values of h, the result will be a shift to the right and for negative values of h the result will be a shift to the left. So since we want a shift to the left we need to use a '-8' and when we substitute that into our new form, y = (x - h) + k you can see the sign change.
Now we can simplify of course and get the final equation: y = x + 5 or in function form f(x) = x + 5
To solve this we are going to use the future value of annuity due formula:
![FV=(1+ \frac{r}{n} )*P[ \frac{(1+ \frac{r}{n})^{kt}-1 }{ \frac{r}{n} } ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=FV%3D%281%2B%20%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7Bn%7D%20%29%2AP%5B%20%5Cfrac%7B%281%2B%20%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7Bn%7D%29%5E%7Bkt%7D-1%20%7D%7B%20%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7Bn%7D%20%7D%20%5D)
where
is the future value
is the periodic deposit
is the interest rate in decimal form
is the number of times the interest is compounded per year
is the number of deposits per year
We know for our problem that
and
. To convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide the rate by 100%:
. Since Ruben makes the deposits every 6 months,
. The interest is compounded semiannually, so 2 times per year; therefore,
.
Lets replace the values in our formula:
![FV=(1+ \frac{0.1}{2} )*420[ \frac{(1+ \frac{0.1}{2})^{(2)(15)}-1 }{ \frac{01}{2} } ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=FV%3D%281%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B0.1%7D%7B2%7D%20%29%2A420%5B%20%5Cfrac%7B%281%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B0.1%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%7B%282%29%2815%29%7D-1%20%7D%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B01%7D%7B2%7D%20%7D%20%5D)
We can conclude that the correct answer is <span>

Answer:
B. temporary
Step-by-step explanation:
The last sentence says that the alignment of atoms does not last long.
So lets say that this salt and water solution consists of 100 liters.
Then that means 20 liters is salt, and 80 liters out of the 100 is water.
Now, we remove 25% of the water. 25% of 80 liters is 20 liters. So, we are left with 80-20, or 60 liters.
Now in all we have 20 liters of salt, and 60 liters of water.
The percentage of salt in the new mixture will be 20/(20+60) = 20/80 = 25%.
Your answer is 25%
