When a snake hatched 4 years ago, it was only 5 inches long. Suppose it is now 3 foot 9 inches long. Given that the annual perce

ntage rate has been constant, what is the annual rate of growth for the snake?

Answer: 10 inches per year.

If the snake is now 3 foot 9 inches, we can add up how many inches that is by converting feet to inches. 1 foot=12 inches, so 3 feet is 36 inches. We then add the 9 inches.

36+9= 45

Since the snake had already accomplished being 5 inches at birth, we can subtract 5 from 45.

This gives us 40.

Since the snake was born 4 years ago we divide 40 by 4.

40÷4= 10

Answer:

73.21% annual percentage rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 foot 9 inches = 45 inches

45 = 5(1 + r)4

9 = (1 + r)4

91/4 = 1 + r

r = 0.73205

therefore,

r = 73.21%

Can someone help please
Ira Lisetskai [31]
Hello there! I can help you! The formula for compound interest is P(1 + r)^t, where P= principal (initial amount), r = interest rate (in decimal form), and t = time (in years). Let's do this step by step. First off, we add the rate into 1. 4% is the interest rate (0.04 in decimal form). 1 + 0.04 is 1.04. Now, what we will do is raise that number to the 2nd power, because the time that elapses is 2 years. 1.04² is 1.0816. That's that. Now, multiply 7,500 to find the total amount of money. 1.0816 * 7,500 is 8,112. There. Toby's savings account balance in 2 years is £8,112.

Note: To solve for compound interest questions like it, add 1 to the percentage rate in decimal form, raise that number to a power based on the number of years (for example, raise the number to the 7th power if we are looking for the balance after 7 years), and then multiply that number by the starting amount. After you raise the number by a power, there may be a lot of numbers behind it. Whatever you do, DO NOT delete the number. Keep it there and multiply it by the principal.

Solve [(x+7) x 3-5] / 4 = 7<br> What is the first step in this equation
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The first step is to slove the numbers in the brackets

Step-by-step explanation:

[(x+7) x -2] / 4 = 7

-2(x+7) / 4 = 7

-2x-14 / 4 = 7

-2x-14 = 28

-2x = 42

x = -21

Is the line through points P(2,-9) and Q(6, -13) perpendicular to the line through points R(5,-1) and
Kay [80]
Line through P(0, 5) and Q(-1, 8):
slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (8 - 5) / (-1 - 0) = 3 / -1 = -3

line through R(3, 3) and S(5, -1):
slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (-1 - 3) / (5 - 3) = -4 / 2 = -2

Parallel lines have equal slopes. Since the two lines have different slopes, they are not parallel.
