The answer is 1690. First find the amount of interest by a single investment by multiplying the investment amount by the percent interest in decimal form. Then calculate the total by adding up all the products of investment times interest. Matrices will allow to multiply two things together and add the products up all at the same time. So we need to find the investment matrix and interest matrix.

Investment matrix A (transposed)            = (a1 a2 a3) = (13,000 12,000 4,000)

Interest Matrix B                                       = (b1 b2 b3) = (0.05 0.06 0.08)

Amount of interest earned                        = a1b1 + a2b2 + a3b3

Amount of interest earned                        = (0.05) (13,000) + (0.06) (12,000) +                                                                                  (0.08)(4,000)

Amount of interest earned                        = 1690

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 7 and a point (1, 8) on the line?
stira [4]
Slope: 7   given point: (1,8)

y = 7x + b          step 1 - plug in the slope in the formula
8 = 7(1) + b       step 2 - plug in the given point
8 = 7 + b           step 3 - simplify the expression
b = 1                 step 4 - solve for b
y = 7x + 1         step 5 - plug in b

formula: y = 7x + 1

What is 3a+2c=26 solve for a and c
blondinia [14]

Simplifying

3a + 2b + c = 26

Solving

3a + 2b + c = 26

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2b' to each side of the equation.

3a + 2b + -2b + c = 26 + -2b

Combine like terms: 2b + -2b = 0

3a + 0 + c = 26 + -2b

3a + c = 26 + -2b

Add '-1c' to each side of the equation.

3a + c + -1c = 26 + -2b + -1c

Combine like terms: c + -1c = 0

3a + 0 = 26 + -2b + -1c

3a = 26 + -2b + -1c

Divide each side by '3'.

a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c

Simplifying

a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c
