Answer: After 1 year: $5,610
After 2 years: $5,722.20
Step-by-step explanation: Use the formula for periodic compounding interest, which is
A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is the final amount, P is the initial deposit, r is the interest rate as a decimal, n is the number of times the interest is compounded per year, and t is how many years.
Here, P = 5,500, r = 0.02 (that's 2% as a decimal), n = 1,
t = 1 for the first answer, t = 2 for the second answer (1 year, then for 2 years)
Plug the known values in to solve...
For 1 year...
A = 5,500(1 + 0.02/1)^(1*1)
A = 5,500(1.02)^1
A = 5,610
For 2 years...
A = 5,500(1 + 0.02/1)^(1*2)
A = 5,500(1.02)²
A = 5,722.20
Well, this question isn't really fair, considering that those sides aren't possible to make a square since a square has 4 congruent sides.

Answer: Choice C) 2 - 6 + 18 - 54 + ...</h3>
Explanation:
The three dots or ellipses indicate the pattern goes on forever to infinity. So the answer is between choices A and C based on this alone. Choice A is a sequence while choice C is a series. A sequence is simply a list of values often in some kind of mathematical pattern. A series is where you add values from a sequence together. This distinction rules out choice A and makes choice C the answer.
Note: choice C is a geometric series with first term 2 and common ratio -3. The infinite series diverges because r = -3 is outside the range -1 < r < 1.
Answer:
2x^2 + x - 6 = rectangular garden: <u><em>length = 2x – 3 feet; width = x + 2 feet</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x - 3)(x + 2) = 2x^2 + x - 6 =
2x^2 + 4x - 3x - 6 = 2x^2 + x - 6 =
2x^2 + x - 6
You get the original equation from the two sides multiplied. :)
Hope this helps, have a good day.
