Answer:
something
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<h3><u>Option 1</u></h3>
Earn $50 every month.
- Let x = number of months the money is left in the account
- Let y = the amount in the account
- Initial amount = $1,000

This is a <u>linear function</u>.
<h3><u>Option 2</u></h3>
Earn 3% interest each month.
(Assuming the interest earned each month is <u>compounding interest</u>.)
- Let x = number of months the money is left in the account
- Let y = the amount in the account
- Initial amount = $1,000

This is an <u>exponential function</u>.
<h3><u>Table of values</u></h3>
<u />

From the table of values, it appears that <u>Account Option 1</u> is the best choice, as the accumulative growth of this account is higher than the other account option.
However, there will be a point in time when Account Option 2 starts accruing more than Account Option 2 each month. To find this, graph the two functions and find the <u>point of intersection</u>.
From the attached graph, Account Option 1 accrues more until month 32. From month 33, Account Option 2 accrues more in the account.
<h3><u>Conclusion</u></h3>
If the money is going to be invested for less than 33 months then Account Option 1 is the better choice. However, if the money is going to be invested for 33 months or more, then Account Option 2 is the better choice.

-3/4 - 2/3 ÷ (-4/5)
= -3/4 - [2/3 ÷ (-4/5)]
{switch the numerator and denominator when changing from ÷ to ×, or × to ÷}
= -3/4 - [2/3 × (-5/4)]
{numerator × numerator, and denominator × denominator}
= -3/4 - [-10/12]
= -3/4 + 10/12
= -9/12 + 10/12
= 1/12
5.
-2 2/5 + (-2 4/5) × 4/7
= -2 2/5 - (2 4/5 × 4/7)
= -12/5 - (14/5 × 4/7)
= -12/5 - (56/35)
{Simplify fraction to make denominators same}
= -12/5 - (8/5)
= -20/5
= -4/1
= -4
6.
-(-3/5) - 1 3/7 ÷ (-5/14)
{Negative signs cancelled out, fractions compounded}
= 3/5 - 10/7 ÷ (-5/14)
{Switch numerator and denominator when switch from ÷ to ×}
= 3/5 - [10/7 × (-14/5)]
= 3/5 - [-140/35]
= 3/5 + 20/5
= 23/5
{Simplify fraction}
= 4 3/5

Answer:
20 months.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of months be represented as x
Apartment A is $1200 per month and requires a security deposit of $1000.
= $1200 × x + $1000
1200x + 1000
Apartment B is $1175 per month and requires a security deposit of $1500.
= $1175 × x +$1500
1175x + 1500
Apartment A = Apartment B
1200x + 1000 = 1175x + 1500
Collect like terms
1200x - 1175x = 1500 - 1000
= 25x = 500
x = 500/25
x = 20
Therefore, the costs for both apartment A and B will be the same after 20 months.
