y - x = 1.

or, y= 1+x

y - 2x = 3.

=>1+x -2x= 3 (substituting the value of y)

=>-x= 2

=>x= -2

y = -2+1 = -1

Therefore, x = -2 and y = -1

Howard invested $5,000 in Certificate of Deposit (CD) that pays 3.75% interest. compounded weekly. What is the value of the CD a

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The value of the CD at the end of the 4 years is $5,808.86.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

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

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Howard invested $5,000 in Certificate of Deposit (CD) that pays 3.75% interest.

This means that $P = 5000, r = 0.0375$

Compounded weekly

An year has 52 weeks, so $n = 52$

Then

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

$A(t) = 5000(1 + \frac{0.0375}{52})^{52t}$

What is the value of the CD at the end of the 4 years?

This is A(4). So

$A(4) = 5000(1 + \frac{0.0375}{52})^{52*4} = 5808.86$

The value of the CD at the end of the 4 years is $5,808.86.

Talja [164]

Answer:

Each person will get 5.34 ounces of soda.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out how many ounces of soda each person gets we need to take the total amount of soda Magalie brought to the party and divide it by the number of people that will drink the soda. In this case we have:

amount per person = 48/9 = 5.34 ounces

Each person will get 5.34 ounces of soda.
