Answer:

it takes approximately 11 years and 3 months (11.4 years) for Belinda's investments to double.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the time it takes for Belinda's money to double, we will use the simple interest formula as shown below:

Simple interest = P × R × T

where:

P = principal = $800

R = Rate in decimal = 8.75% = 0.0875

T = time = ???

simple interest = $800 ( her money doubles)

∴ 800 = 800 × 0.0875 × t

800 = 70 × t

∴ t = 800 ÷ 70 = 11.4 years. (11 years and 3 months)

Therefore after approximately 11 years and 3 months, Belinda's investments doubles

What is the rate of change for 2y+3=3x

Elenna [48]

The rate of change in z at (4,9) as we change x but hold y fixed is = 3/[2sqrt(3x+2y)] put x = 4 , y = 9 = 3/[2sqrt(12+18) = 3/[2sqrt(30)] The rate of change in z at (4,9) as we change y but hold x fixed is = 1/sqrt(3x+2y) put x = 4, y =9 = 1/sqrt(30)
