Answer:

133.33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Principal = $500

Interest rate (r) = 1.5% = 0.015

Triple amount of principal = $500 * 3 = $1500 = final amount (A)

Number of years (t) =?

Using the relation :

A = P(1 + rt)

1500 = 500(1 + 0.015t)

1500 / 500 = 1 + 0.015t

3 = 1 + 0.015t

3 - 1= 0.015t

2 = 0.015t

2 / 0.015 = 0.015t / 0.015

133.333 = t

Write an equation for the line given that m=0 and the y intercept is (0,-2)
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

\boxed{y=-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The \ graph \ of \ the \ equation: \\ \\ y=mx+b \\ \\ is \ a \ line \ whose \ slope \ is \ m \ and \ whose \ y-intercept \ is \ (0, b)

In this problem, this line has a slope m=0, that is, this is an horizontal straight line. The intercept is the point (0,-2), so b=-2. Finally, by substituting these values we have:

y=-2

Lastly, this solution is shown in the figure below.
