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 the equation <br> -13/4 -x= 1/2x -1
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

x = 2 or 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-13/4 -x= 1/2x -1

Collect like terms

-13/4+1=1/2x+x

Using LCM

(-13+4)/4=(1+2x²)/2x

9/4=(1+2x²)/2x

Cross multiply

9(2x)=4(1+2x²)

18x=4+8x²

Turn into quadratic and solve

8x²-18x+4

Using formulae method

-b±(√b²-4ac)/2a

Where a=8, b= -18 and c=4

(-(-18)±(√(-18)²-4(8)(4))/2(8)

(18±(√324-128))/16

(18±√196)/16

(18±14)/16

(18+14)/16 or (18-14)/16

32/16 or 4/16

2 or 1/4
