identify the equation in the point-slope form the line parallel to y=3/4x-4 that passes through (-1,7)

1 answer:

4 0

Y = 3/4x -4
The slope is 3/4 since it is written in the form y =mx+b where m is the slope
We want a line that is parallel so it will have the same slope
We know the slope of the new line (3/4) and a point (-1,7)
So we can use the point slope form of the equation
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-7 = 3/4(x--1)
y-7=3/4(x+1)

Lars deposited $50 into a savings account for which interest is compounded quarterly. According to the rule of 72, what interest

Ivanshal [37]

Answer: C 2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The "Rule of 72" is a easy way to calculate how much time an investment will take to double with a given fixed annual rate of interest.

Just we have to divide 72 by the annual rate of return(r), we can get a rough estimate of how many years it will take to double the initial investment .

Now, in given problem: Let 'r' be the rate of interest

Time to double the amount=29 years

Thus by rule 72 ,

$\frac{72}{r}=29\\\Rightarrow\ r=\frac{72}{29}=2.4827\%\approx2.5\%$

Therefore, C is the right option.
