Answer:

A solution that results in a false statement when substituted back into the original equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

An extraneous solution is one that arises in a solution of equations, but which on closer inspection is not a solution to the original equation. Therefore, they imply an error in the development of the solution of the equation, so they cannot be taken as a valid solution since, when replacing the result with the missing variable, the equation does not obtain the desired result.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The total amount is 1214.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

principal p=$1200

interest rate r= 12%= 12/100= 0.12

time t= 1

n= 12

we know that the compound interest formula is

A=p(1+r/n )^nt

A=1200(1+0.12/12)^1*12

A=1200(1+0.01)^12

A=1200(1.001)^12

A=1200*1.012

A=1214.
