Answer:
D. good luck maybe or maybe not
(2, 2.5) is exactly halfway
A=p(1+i/m)^mn
Interest earned
I=A-p
A=980×(1+0.08÷4)^(4×5)
A=1,456.23
I=1,456.23−980
I=476.23
A=7,200×(1+0.04)^(8)
A=9,853.69
I=9,853.69−7,200
I=2,653.69
A=15,520×(1+0.06÷2)^(2×4)
A=19,660.27
I=19,660.27−15,520
I=4,140.27
Isolate the x. First, multiply 2 to both sides
-x/2(2) < 4(2)
-x < 4(2)
-x < 8
Isolate the x. Divide - 1 to both sides (because you are dividing a negative number, flip the sign).
-x/ -1 < 8/-1
x > -8 is your answer
hope this helps
