Answer:

The best option for him would be a real interest rate of 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nominal interest rate is the one that represents the percentage of increase of the money that is in a certain investment, without discounting the depreciation due to inflation or the payment of taxes.

On the other hand, the real interest rate is the one that represents the real increase in the money invested, after discounting inflation and any taxes to be paid.

Therefore, the best option for Oscar would be to invest his $ 4,000 in a savings account with a real interest rate of 5% per year.

What is the equation for the line?

Irina-Kira [14]

In order to find the equation of a line, you would have to use the equation y=mx+b.

First, find the slope: $\frac{y_{2}- y_{1} }{x_{2} x_{1} }$
There is (1,8) and (2, 16) so plug that in 16-8/2-1 = 8. That's your slope! (Or the m)

Next in order to find b, you have to plug in a point:
y=8x+b
Take (1,8) and plug it in for x and y:
8=8(1)+b
b=0
Your y intercept is 0 (which you can also see on the graph)

So your answer is: y=8x

Prove (x+y)^2=x^2+2xy+y^2

Scrat [10]

Rules of exponents and the distributive property apply.
(x+y)² = (x+y)·(x+y) . . . . . meaning of exponent of 2
= x·(x+y) +y·(x+y) . . . . . . . distributive property
= x·x +x·y +y·x +y·y . . . . . distributive property
= x² +x·y +x·y +y² . . . . . . meaning of exponent of 2, commutative property of multiplication
= x² +(1+1)·x·y +y² . . . . . . distributive property
= x²+2xy+y² . . . . . . . . . the desired form
Thus
(x+y)² = x²+2xy+y²
