Answer:

No, equivalent quarterly rate will be approx 1.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Chan deposited money into his retirement account that is compounded annually at an interest rate of 7%.

We know that there are 4 quarters in 1 year.

So to find that equivalent quarterly we will divide given yearly rate by number of quarters.

That means divide 7% by 4.

which gives 1.75%.

But that is different than Chan's though of 2% quarterly interest.

Hence Chan is wrong.

Solve each of the following equations. (2 answers)<br><br> |2x-3|=2
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

x= 5/2 or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute value always gives us positive

if |u| = 2, u can be -2 or 2

2x-3 = 2

2x = 5

x = 5/2

2x-3 = -2

2x = 1

x= 1/2

in general, set the stuff inside the absolute value to equal both positive and negative of the equivalent value

Svetach [21]
What we know:
Petrolyn motor oil is a combination of natural oil and synthetic oil. It contains 7 liters of natural oil for every 5 liters of synthetic oil.

What we need to find:
If 355 liters of synthetic oil are used, how many liters of petrolyn oil will be made?

Set up a proportion to find how much natural oil is used.
7L natural oil/5L synthetic oil = x/355 synthetic oil where x=natural oil
7/5=x/355
(5)(x)=(7)(355) cross multiplied
5x=2485 simplified
5/5x=2485/5 multiplicative inverse
x=497L

Now, add both synthetic oil and natural oil to find amount of petrolyn oil.

355 L synthetic oil + 497 L natural oil= 852 L of petrolyn oil
