We solve the question as follows:
Simple interest=Principle×Rate×Time
Thus given:
p=$55000, R=2.5%, time= 1 year
thus
Interest=55000×0.025×1=$1375
To evaluate the amount required to keep up with the inflation, your interest rate should match the inflation rate otherwise prices are going up faster than the savings.
Required interest rate=55000×0.034×1=$1870
The buying power lost will be the difference between your required interest and actual interest.
Thus:
Buying power lost=1870-1375=$495
Answer:
y-4=(-1/2)(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope=(8-4)/(-4-4)=-4/8=-1/2
The equation of the line is y-4=(-1/2)(x-4)
Answer:
y=ln(x/(1-x))
Step-by-step explanation:
y=e^x/(1+e^x)
Cross multiply
y(1+e^x)=e^x
Distribute
y+ye^x=e^x
Put anything with x on with side and everything without x on opposing side:
y=e^x-ye^x
Factor right hand side
y=(1-y)e^x
Divide both sides by (1-y)
y/(1-y)=e^x
Use natural log.
ln(y/(1-y))=x
The inverse is
y=ln(x/(1-x))
