That "ad^3" bothers me; I'm not sure what you mean here.
I'm going to assume that you have (1/4*a*d^3)^2.
If that's the case, then you have (1/4)^2 * a^2 * d^6 = (1/16)*a^2*d^6.
If this is not what you were hoping for, double check to ensure that you have copied down this problem exactly as it was presented.
Plug in the x value.
3(1-2)2=?
1-2= -1
3(-1)= -3
-3(2)= -6.
The answer is -6.
Hello! I believe the correct answer is C.
I hope that helped you! c:
The interest rate is 3.5%.
EXPLANATION
We substitute the given values into the formula;

to obtain

We divide through by 6000 to obtain,

This implies that,

We take the square root of both sides,

This gives us,

Add -1 to both sides of the equation to obtain

Multiply through by 100 to obtain;
