Answer:
18. compound interest
19. simple interest
20. simple interest
Step-by-step explanation:
For these problems, the initial balance is irrelevant. All that matters is the multiplier of that balance. For simple interest at rate r for t years, the multiplier is ...
simple interest multiplier = (1 +rt)
For interest compounded annually, the multiplier of the initial balance is ...
compound interest multiplier = (1 +r)^t
A spreadsheet can do the computations for you.
___
As an example of the computations involved, consider problem 19:
simple interest multiplier = 1 + 0.13·6 = 1.78
compound interest multiplier = 1.10^6 = 1.771561
The latter is less than the former, so the simple interest account will have the (slightly) greater balance at the end of 6 years.
B because it is between x: 4 and 6. And it is linear and decreasing
Step-by-step explanation:
2x = y-10
Rewrite as: 2x + 10 = y
Therefore:
2x+10 = y
2x +7 = 2y
Subtract the equations:
2x + 10 = y
- 2x + 7 = 2y
______________
3 = -y
Therefore y = -3
Substiture y = -3 into the second equation:
2x + 7 = 2(-3)
2x + 7 = -6
2x = -13
x= -6.5
Answer : (-6.5, -3)
Answer:
14/28
Step-by-step explanation:
14/28 reduces down to 1/2
Answer:
The two lines are not parallel.
Step-by-step explanation:
Every linear equation follows this structure:
y = mx + b
y is the y value
x is the x value
m is the gradient/slope of the line
b (or sometimes c) is the y-intercept of the line
Firstly, we have to get the y term on one side by itself.
6x + y = -1
-6x -6x
y = -6x - 1
-2x -5y = 1
+2x +2x
-5y = 2x + 1
Secondly, we make it so the y term is just the y value.
The first equation is already like this, so we don't need to do anything to that.
-5y = 2x + 1
÷ -5 ÷ -5
y = (2x + 1) / -5
This can be expanded and simplified to:
y = -2/5x - 1/5
Thirdly, we have to compare the slopes and y-intercepts.
y = -6x - 1
y = 2/5x - 1/5
If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different, they are parallel. However, the slopes are different, therefore they are not parallel.
