This problem is about componded interest. The formula for compounded interest is:
In this case, Initial = 300, r = 0.06 and t=10 so the total amount in the account after 10 years is:
The amount after 10 years is 573.26.
I'm guessing that the 2 in that is ^2? if so, it opens down.
The value of b Lois gave to Clark to satisfy the given equation is -7.
The given parameters;
2x + 7 - x = 4x + 2b – 3x - 3b
To obtain the value of b, simplify the equation as follows;
2x + 7 - x = 4x + 2b – 3x - 3b
<em />
<em>collect similar terms together</em>
<em />
(2x - x) + 7 = (4x - 3x) + (2b - 3b)
x + 7 = x - b
(x - x) + 7 = -b
0 + 7 = -b
7 = -b
-7 = b
b = -7
Thus, the value of b Lois gave to Clark to satisfy the given equation is -7.
