Answer:

j=2.606, j=-4.606 and k=0.606, k=-6.606

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to merge the formulas so that you are left with one combined equation with only one variable. Let's go for j, so we won't have to fiddle with the quadratic term:

First we convert j-k=2 to k=j-2, then we plug in this value for k in the other equation:

j² + 2(j-2) = 8

j² +2j -4 = 8

j² + 2j -12 = 0

This we can solve using the quadratic formula:

j = (-2 ± √(2²-4·1·-12) ) / 2

= (-2 ± √52)/2

= -1 ± √13

So j ≈ 2.6056 or j≈-4.6056

k can be found by subtracting 2.

A retiree invests $9,000 in a savings plan that pays 5% per year. What will the account balance be at the end of the first year
densk [106]
Using the formula I=Pxrxt
P is the principal amount, $9000.00.
r is the interest rate, 5% per year, or in decimal form, 5/100=0.05.
t is the time involved, 1....year(s) time periods.
So, t is 1....year time periods.
To find the simple interest, we multiply 9000 × 0.05 × 1 to get that:

The interest is: $450.00
So the balance will be $9450.00 at the end of the first year.

How do you find the slope of an equation
asambeis [7]
To find the slope you use a formula like y=mx+b y would be the point of whatever point is on the y axis so for example lets say 6 is your y axis and 8 is your a axis point once you have those point then you graph them. after they have been graphed you find the next point that would go in the sequence which would be at -8,-6 draw a line connecting the two point and then on every corner that the line completely goes through those are your other points then from there you take your original point and the next point closets to the original one and count down and to the left or right how ever many times you need to until you reach the nearest point. if you cant figure it out them this well help www.desmos.com/calculator
