Answer:

$125 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 2 years from 2015 to 2017, the spending on lunches increased by ...

$800 -550 = $250

That is an average per year of ...

$250/(2 yr) = $125/yr . . . . average dollar increase per year

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

For costs, it is often true that they follow an exponential curve, not a linear one. Ed's spending increased by a factor of 800/550 = 16/11 in the two years, so an average percentage increase of √(16/11) -1 = 20.6% per year.

Solve for p: -9 + p < 15 <br> A. p > 24 B. -p > 6 C. p < 24 D. -p < -6

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

C. In the given expression -9 + p < 15 , the value of p < 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is :

-9 + p < 15

Now, solving for the value of p.

If equals are added to both sides of inequality, the inequality remains unchanged.

Now, -9 + p < 15

⇒ -9 + p + 9 < 15 + 9 (adding +9 on both sides)

or, p < 24

Hence, in the given expression -9 + p < 15 the value of p < 24.

You deposit $20,000 in an account that pays 7.77% annual interest. Find the balance after 2 years when the interest is compounde

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The account balance after 24 months will be $23,092.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P= $20,000

r= 7.77%= 0.077

t= 2 years

A= ?

n= 24

The compound interest formula is

$A= P(1+t)^t$

Inserting our values to solve for A we have

$A= 20000(1+\frac{0.077}{24} )^2^*^2^4\\\\A= 20000(1+0.003 )^2^*^2^4\\\\A= 20000(1.003 )^2^*^2^4\\\A= 20000(1.003 )^4^8\\\A= 20000*1.15463517818\\\A= 23092.7035636\\\A= 23,092.70$
