madreJ [45]

The formula for the compound interest is given as

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

To check the value for the compounding at 8.01% daily

$\begin{gathered} A=600,000(1+\frac{8.01}{365000})^{365} \\ A=600000(1+0.00021945)^{365} \\ A=600000(1.00021945)^{365} \\ A=600000(1.083385881) \\ A=650,031 \end{gathered}$

By compounding the value at 8.02% monthly

7x+2y=4 y=x+1 Solve the system of equations. (1/3,4/3) (2/9,11,9) no solution

Lunna [17]

Answer: SECOND OPTION

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve the system of equations by the method of substitution:

- You must susbtitute the second equation into the first equation and solve or x:

$7x+2(x+1)=4\\7x+2x+2=4\\9x=4-2\\9x=2\\x=\frac{2}{9}$

- Now, you must susbtitute the value of x obtained above into the second equation to calculate the value of y. Then, you have:

$y=\frac{2}{9}+1\\\\y=\frac{2+9}{9}\\\\y=\frac{11}{9}$

Therefore, you obtain:

( $\frac{2}{9},\frac{11}{9}$ )
