Answer:
$359.42
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference in the investment values can be computed by making use of the formulas for the account balance in each case.
compound interest: A = P(1 +r)^t . . . . interest at rate r compounded annually
simple interst: A = P(1 +rt) . . . . simple interest at rate r
__
The account earning simple interest will have a balance of ...
A = $8000(1 +0.12×3) = $10,880
The account earning compound interest will have a balance of ...
A = $8000(1 +0.12)^3 ≈ $11,239.42
The difference between the two investments is ...
$11,239.42 -10,880 = $359.42
for the formula is
Y = starting population x (1-rate of change)^number of years
2010-2001 = 9
Y= 567 x (1-0.015)^9 = 494.89, round up to 495 people
Answer: It is a difference of two squares, and it factors to (3x-7)(3x+7)
=============================================================
Explanation:
We can write the 9x^2 as (3x)^2 since
(3x)^2 = (3x)*(3x) = (3*3)*(x*x) = 9x^2
The 49 can be written as 7^2 because 7^2 = 7*7 = 49.
This means 9x^2 - 49 is the same as (3x)^2 - 7^2. We have a difference of two squares.
The difference of squares factoring rule is
a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
which we have a = 3x and b = 7 in this case
So,
a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
(3x)^2 - 7^2 = (3x-7)(3x+7)
9x^2 - 49 = (3x-7)(3x+7)
Side note: This is the same as (3x+7)(3x-7). We can multiply two numbers in any order.
You would need to shade 1.5 boxes or 6 pieces to have shaded 25% of the shape.
In total, there are 6 boxes. There are 4 pieces per box. In total, there are 24 pieces.
6/4 = 1.5
24/4 = 6
You would need to shade 1.5 boxes, which is equal to 6 pieces or triangles.
