Answer:

OPTION A yields the most money at 10 and 20 years. Hence Option A is the better choice for "thinking about your future"

Step-by-step explanation:

In the absence of any more information, I am going to assume that Simple Interest applies. (see attached)

hence the applicable formula is:

A = P(1+rt), where

A = final amount after t years

P = Principal (beginning) amount ($1500 for option A and $1000 for option B)

r = annual interest rate (5% = 0.05 for option A and 5.5% = 0.055 for option B)

t = time (we are asked to evaluate t = 10 years and t = 20 years)

<u>For option A </u>:

P = $1500 and r = 5% = 0.05

A = P(1+rt)

A = 1500 [ 1 + (0.05)t]

at 10 years: A = 1500 [ 1 + (0.05)(10)] = $2,250

at 20 years: A = 1500 [ 1 + (0.05)(20)] =$3,000

<u>For option B </u>:

P = $1000 and r = 5.5% = 0.055

A = P(1+rt)

A = 1000 [ 1 + (0.055)t]

at 10 years: A = 1000 [ 1 + (0.055)(10)] = $1,550

at 20 years: A = 1000 [ 1 + (0.055)(20)] = $2,100

Comparing all the 4 results above, we can see that OPTION A yields the most money at 10 and 20 years. Hence Option A is the better choice for long term returns.

The assets (in billions of dollars) for a financial firm can be approximated by the function A(x)=318e^0.27x, where x=7 correspo

The value of the asset in 2012, 2014, and 2017 are 8119.72, 13933.55 and, 31321.23, respectively. A function assigns the values.

<h3>What is a Function?</h3>

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.

Given the assets (in billions of dollars) for a financial firm can be approximated by the function A(x)=318e^{0.27x}, where x=7 corresponds to the year 2007. Therefore, the assets value in the following years will be,

A.) 2012 - A(12)=318e^{0.27\times 12} = 8,119.72

B.) 2014 - A(14)=318e^{0.27\times 14} = 13,933.5

C.) 2012 - A(17)=318e^{0.27\times 17} = 31,321.23

Hence, the value of the asset in 2012, 2014, and 2017 are 8119.72, 13933.55 and, 31321.23, respectively.

I need help please help me thanks
Nady [450]

Answer:

1. The y-intercept 8 means you start off with $8. The slope 1/4 means how much money you have to pay for the amount of tickets purchased for carnival games.

2. The y-intercept 2 means the number of chapters you started reading and the slope 5/4 means the number of chapters you read per day.

3. The y-intercept 3 means the inital (start) cost of a muffin delivery and the slope 2 means the cost of each muffin delivery for the number of muffins you ordered.

Number 3 on the slope part might be the other way around if I'm wrong :)

How does solving the equation arithmetically compare to solving an equation algebraically
IRISSAK [1]
In an arithmetic equation, there is no variable in the 'meat' of the equation(example: 5-5=0). In an algebraic equation, there is a variable in the meat of the equation(example: 5-x=0).
