Answer:$6451.6 should be deposited.

Step-by-step explanation:

The principal was compounded monthly. This means that it was compounded 12 times in a year. So

n = 12

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 7.2%. So

r = 7.2/100 = 0.072

It was compounded for 3 years. So

t = 3

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. A is given as $8000 Therefore,

8000 = P (1+0.072/12)^12×3

8000 = P(1+0.006)^36

8000 = P(1.006)^36

P = 8000/1.24

P = $6451.6

identify the equation in the point-slope form the line parallel to y=3/4x-4 that passes through (-1,7)
hram777 [196]
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)

Jose has $20 more than Sarah. Their combined mobey totals $90. Write and solve an algebric model to determine the amount of mone
scoray [572]

Let S= the amount of money Sarah has.

Let J= the amount of money Jose has

J= S+20

J+S=90

But we also know that J can equal S+20

So,

S+20+S=90

2S+20=90

2S=70

S=35

So Sarah has $35, and Jose has $35+$20, so he has 55$

the axis of symmetry for the graph of the function is f(x) = 1/4x2 bx 10 is x = 6. what is the value of b?
Lady bird [3.3K]

we have

f(x)=\frac{1}{4} x^{2} +bx+10

This is a vertical parabola open upward

The axis of symmetry is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

The vertex is the point (h,k)

the equation of the axis of symmetry is x=h

In this problem

x=6

so the x-coordinate of the vertex is h=6

<u>Convert the quadratic equation in vertex form</u>

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

f(x)-10=\frac{1}{4} x^{2} +bx

Factor the leading coefficient

f(x)-10=\frac{1}{4}(x^{2} +4bx)

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

f(x)-10+b^{2}=\frac{1}{4}(x^{2} +4bx+4b^{2})

Rewrite as perfect squares

f(x)+(b^{2}-10)=\frac{1}{4}(x+2b)^{2}

f(x)=\frac{1}{4}(x+2b)^{2}-(b^{2}-10)

remember that

h=6

so

(x+2b)=(x-6)

2b=-6

b=-3

substitute in the equation

f(x)=\frac{1}{4}(x-6)^{2}-((-3)^{2}-10)

f(x)=\frac{1}{4}(x-6)^{2}+1

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

b=-3
