Since 1 is your initial value you plot a point at (0,1) just like you did , but since your slope (rise/run) is 3, you will go up 3 and over 1, so you will need to graph the point (1,4) instead of (1,-2). Your line will be going up , since a graph is read left to right, you have a positive slope so your line will go up. Hope I helped !
A:amount of money invested in the account with 3% simple interest
B: amount of money invested in the account with 4.5% simple interest
a+b=25000 ——>a=25000-b
0.03a+0.045b=900
30a+45b=900000
2a+3b=60000
2(25000-b)+3b=60000
50000-2b+3b=60000
B=10000
A=25000-10000=15000
Here is a quadratic equation x^2 + 5x = 14
x^2 + 5x - 14 = 0 - Subtract 14 from both sides
(x + 7)(x - 2) = 0 - Factor
x + 7 = 0 x - 2 = 0 - Set each factor equal to 0
x = -7 x = 2 - solve each piece
If the constant is easy to find factors of then use the factoring method
If the constant is difficult and you have a graphing calculator, then graph
If no graphing calculator then use the quadratic formula
