Answer:

The interest rate of Jess's account was 7%

Step-by-step explanation:

____________________________________

A = P × (1 + rt)

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = annual interest rate

t = time (in years)

___________________________________

A=8,150

P=5,000

8,150 = 5,000 × (1 + r × 9)

8,150÷5,000 = 1 + 9r

1.63 = 1 + 9r

1.63 - 1 = 9r

0.63 = 9r

r = 063÷9

r = 0.07 = 7%

Answer:

The interest rate of Jess's account was 7%

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P * (1 + rt)

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = annual interest rate

t = time (in years)

Replacing with the values we know:

A =  P * (1 + rt)

8,150 = 5,000 * (1 + r * 9)

8,150/5,000 = 1 + 9r

1.63 = 1 + 9r

1.63 - 1 = 9r

0.63 = 9r

r = 063/9

r = 0.07 = 7%

The interest rate of Jess's account was 7%

X +5+11x=12x+Y It says find the value of y that makes each equation true for all values of
sladkih [1.3K]
X + 5 + 11x = 12x + y

Simplify: 12x + 5 = 12x + y (We are adding x and 11x on the left side)

Subtract 12x from each side makes each zero.

5 = y

So we can plug in and test. I'm picking two random numbers to plug in for x. 10, and 82

x = 10, y = 5
10 + 5 + 11(10) = 12(10) + 5
125 = 125

x = 82, y = 5
82 + 5 + 11(82) = 12(82) + 5
989 = 989

So we verified y = 5

(a) Predict the median income of a region in which 30% of adults 25 years and older have at least a bachelor's degree.
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

(a). $35746. (b). Higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). Given that the least-squares regression equation is y = 7163x + 14242. Also, in the question above we are given that y is the median income and x is the percentage of 25 years and older with at least a bachelor's degree in the region, that is to say that the value of x = 30.

Therefore, y = 7163x + 14242.

y = (7163 × 30) + 14242.

y = $35746.

(b). The condition for our x is; 28.7 percent of adults 25 years and older have at least a bachelor's degree.

Then, y = (7163 × 28.7) + 14242.

y = $34814.

Hence, we have the median income in this region = $38,163 HIGHER than $34814.
