Answer: y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

(number)^1 is just (number)

so (3y+1)^1/2=y-1 is (3y+1)/2=y-1

multiply 2 on both side so get rid of fraction

then 3y+1=2(y-1)

3y+1=2y-2

y=-3

jonny [76]

Answer:

$2\frac{1}{6}\ frames$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out how many frames she can make with the exiting material, divide 1 5/8 by 3/4

$1\frac{5}{8}:\frac{3}{4}$

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$1\frac{5}{8}=\frac{1*8+5}{8}=\frac{13}{8}$

substitute

$\frac{13}{8}:\frac{3}{4}=\frac{52}{24}\ frames$

Simplify

$\frac{13}{6}\ frames$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{13}{6}\ frames=\frac{12}{6}+\frac{1}{6}=2\frac{1}{6}\ frames$

Your grandparents invested $2,000 for you on the day you were born. How much will this investment be worth on your 25th birthday

algol [13]

We know that, Amount in Compound interest is given by :

$\bigstar \ \ \boxed{\sf{Amount = Principal\bigg(1 + \dfrac{Rate \ of \ Interest}{100}\bigg)^{Time \ Period}}}$

Given : Principal = $2000

Given : Annual yield is 5% and the interest is compounded quarterly

It means : Interest is compounded 4 times in a year

$\implies \sf{Rate \ of \ Interest = \dfrac{R}{4} = \dfrac{5}{4}}$

$\sf{\implies Time \ period = (25 \times 4) = 100}$

Substituting all the values in the formula, we get :

$\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(1 + \dfrac{\dfrac{5}{4}}{100}\bigg)^{100}}$

$\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(1 + \dfrac{5}{400}\bigg)^{100}}$

$\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(1 + \dfrac{1}{80}\bigg)^{100}}$

$\implies \sf{Amount = 2000\bigg(\dfrac{81}{80}\bigg)^{100}}$

$\implies \sf{Amount = 2000 \times (1.0125)^{100}}$

$\implies \sf{Amount = 2000 \times 3.463}}$

$\implies \sf{Amount = 6926.8}$
