Answer:

y= -x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

slope int. form: y=mx+b

first, we need to find the slope (m)

the two points are (2,4) and (7,-1).

to find the slope we do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

doing this we get -5/5=-1

now we can plug in point (2,4) and the slope into y=mx+b

doing this we get:

4=-1(2)+b

4=-2+b

b=8

now we have the equation:

y= -x+8

Answer:

$\large\boxed{PS=10\sqrt5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔPQS, ΔRQP and ΔRPS are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

$\dfrac{QR}{RP}=\dfrac{RP}{RS}$

We have:

$QR=5,\ RS=20$

Substitute:

$\dfrac{5}{RP}=\dfrc{RP}{20}$ <em>cross multiply</em>

$RP^2=(5)(20)\\\\RP^2=100\to RP=\sqrt{100}\\\\RP=10$

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$PS^2=PR^2+RS^2$

Substitute:

$PS^2=10^2+20^2\\\\PS^2=100+400\\\\PS^2=500\to PS=\sqrt{500}\\\\PS=\sqrt{100\cdot5}\\\\PS=\sqrt{100}\cdot\sqrt5\\\\PS=10\sqrt5$

To offset college expenses, at the beginning of your freshman year you obtain a nonsubsidized student loan for $15,000. Interest

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

15000(1.003425)^12t ;

4.11%

4.188%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Loan amount = principal = $15000

Interest rate, r = 4.11% = 0.0411

n = number of times compounded per period, monthly = 12 (number of months in a year)

Total amount, F owed, after t years in college ;

F(t) = P(1 + r/n)^nt

F(t) = 15000(1 + 0.0411/12)^12t

F(t) = 15000(1.003425)^12t

2.) The annual percentage rate is the interest rate without compounding = 4.11%

3.)

The APY

APY = (1 + APR/n)^n - 1

APY = (1 + 0.0411/12)^12 - 1

APY = (1.003425)^12 - 1

APY = 1.04188 - 1

APY = 0.04188

APY = 0.04188 * 100% = 4.188%
