For simple interest, the formula is I = PRT, where I = interest, P = principal borrowed or deposited, R = rate as a decimal, and T = time in years.
Your information:
I = (870)(0.08)(5)
I = 348
Add the interest to the principal for your total balance
348 + 870 = $1218 will be the total balance in the account.
<span>Given the quadratic equation: f(x) = -2x^2 - 2x - 1, the axis of symmetry can be obtained by finding the line that divides the function into two congruent or identical halves. Thus, it should pass through the vertex and is equal
to the x-coordinate of the vertex. </span>
<span>Note that a quadratic
equation in standard form: y = ax^2 + bx + c, has the vertex located at (h,k) where, h = -b/2a and k is determined by evaluating y at
h. In this case, a = -2, b = -2, thus, h = -0.5, k = 0.5. Thus, the vertex is located at (-0.5, 0.5) and the axis of symmetry is at x = -0.5. </span>
Answer:
194 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The base fee of $15.99 is going to have to be paid, whether any miles are put on the truck or not. If the number of miles driven is our unknown, if we rent the truck for the base fee of $15.99 and drive it 0 miles, we still have to pay the $15.99. If we do drive it and we have to pay .92 a mile, the expression for that is .92x, where x is the number of miles driven (it is also the variable we are solving for!). The expression for this total cost is .92x + 15.99, and since we paid a total of $194.47, we set our cost equation equal to that number and solve for x:
.92x + 15.99 = 194.47 and
.92x = 178.48 so
x = 194 miles driven
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Method 1.</em>
slope = rise/run
Rise is vertical distance.
Run is horizontal distance.
Find two points that are easy to read (on grid intersections):
(2, -1) and (5, 0).
Start at (2, 1). You need to go to (5, 0) by moving only vertically and horizontally. Go up 1 unit. That is a rise of 1. Now go right 3 units. That is a run of 3.
rise = 1
run = 3
slope = rise/run = 1/3
<em>Method 2.</em>
Use the slope formula and two points on the line.
Use points (2, -1) and (5, 0).
slope = 1/3
