Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Left = 2000 * (1/2)^x

Try it.

x = 1

Left = 2000 * (1/2)^1

left = 2000  * 1/2

left = 1000

x = 3

left = 2000 (1/2)^3

left = 2000 (1/8)

left = 250

x = 4

left = 2000 * (1/16)

left = 125

from her on the function does not work accurately. You have to modify the algorithm.

Diego is solving the inequality 100 − 3x ≥ -50. He solves the equation 100 − 3x = -50 and gets x = 50. What is the solution to t
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

x≤50

Step-by-step explanation:

100-3x≥-50

subtracting 100 at both side on inequality

-100+100-3x≥--50-100

-3x≥-150

Dividing both sides by 3

-3x/3≥-150/3

-x≥--50

Adding 50 on both sides

-x+50≥-50+50

-x+50≥0

Adding x on both sides

-x+x+50≥0+x

50≥x

so,

x≤50

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

rate  = 3.5% per month

A) Six  days later the bank calculated the daily interest.

so, time = 6 days

= 6 / 30 = 1/5 month

simple interest  =\frac{P*r*t}{100}

=\frac{5000*3.5*1/5}{100} \\\\=35

=35%

B) For $5000, t = 1 month

For $2000, t = 20 / 30 = 2/3 month

For $8000, t = 16/30 months

Simple interest for $5000

=\frac{500083.5*1}{100} \\\\= 175

$175

Simple interest for $2000

=\frac{2000*3.5*2/3}{100} \\\\=\ 46.67

=$46.67

Simple interest for $8000

=\frac{8000*3.5*16/30}{100} \\\\=149.33

=$149.33

Total amount in account at the end of 30 days is

= $5000 + $175 + $2000 + $46.67 + $8000 + $149.33

= $15371
