Answer:

V = $1213.03

Step-by-step explanation:

We can determine the amount of money after 15 years with the given formula:

V = Pe^{rt}   (1)

Where:

V: is the value of the account in t years =?

P: is the principal initially invested = $686                

r: is the rate of interest = 3.8% = 3.8/100 = 0.038

t: is the time = 15 years

By substituting the above values into equation (1) we have:

V = Pe^{rt} = 686*e^{(0.038*15)} = 1213.03  

               

Therefore, the amount of money is $1213.03.

I hope it helps you!

Answer:

<h2>\frac{1}{2}</h2>

Solution,

Let the points be A and B

A(-4 , 1)------>( X1, y1)

B(2,4)---------->( x2, y2)

Now,

Gradient:

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

\frac{4 - 1}{2 - ( - 4)}

\frac{3}{2 + 4}

\frac{3}{6}

\frac{1}{2}

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...
