Answer: $22.12

Step-by-step explanation:

I just did the compound interest formula which is

starting amount * (1. interst rate) ^ number of years

example if you have 100$ and you want to know how much it is worth if it appretiates by 7% of a period of 20 years it would look something like this;

100 * (1.10) ^20 = 672.74$

but since you have to figure out what it was in 2008 which was exactly half way in the period you divide the exponent by half so your formula should be;

I know the answer is right because I asked my teacher and it's correct.

REAL EXAMPLE: 18 * (1.51) ^.5 = 22.12$

Help! <br> Which expression is equivalent? <br> On edge
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: Choice B

x^{1/8}y^{8}

======================================================

Explanation:

The two rules we use are

(a*b)^c = a^c*b^c

(a^b)^c = a^{b*c}

When applying the first rule to the expression your teacher gave you, we can say that:

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = \left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2}

Then applying the second rule lets us say

\left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = x^{1/4*1/2}*y^{16*1/2} = x^{1/8}y^{8}

Therefore,

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2}  = x^{1/8}y^{8}

-------------

In short, we just multiplied each exponent inside by the outer exponent 1/2.

So that explains why the exponents go from {1/4,16} to {1/8,8} for x and y in that exact order.

What is the equation of the line in point-slope form that has a slope of -3 and passes through the point (5, 9)?
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

y-9=-3(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in point-slope form is given as

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Here m=-3 and (x1, y1)=(5, 9)

Therefore,

y-9=-3(x-5)

Students who party before an exam are twice as likely to fail as those who don't party (and presumably study). If 20% of the stu
True [87]

Answer:

The fraction of the students who failed to went partying = \frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of students = 100

No. of students partied are twice the no. of students who not partied.

⇒ No. of students partied = 2 × the no. of students who are not partied

No. of students partied before the exam = 20 % of total students

⇒ No. of students partied before the exam = \frac{20}{100} × 100

⇒ No. of students partied before the exam =  20

No. of students who not partied before the exam = \frac{20}{2} = 10

Thus the fraction of the students who failed to went partying = \frac{10}{100} = \frac{1}{10}
