Molly opened a savings account with a one‐time deposit of $100 that will be left in the account for at least 5 years. The saving

Anettt [7]

The amount of interest Molly will earn after 5 years on a deposit of $\$100$ compounded annually over 5 years is $\$27.63$

First, we need to find the future value of her investment, then we subtract the original deposit from it to get the amount of interest she will get at the end of 5 years.

The future value of an investment that is compounded annually is given by

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

where

$A=\text{Amount of money in Molly's account after 5 years}\\P=\text{Molly's initial deposit into her account}=\$500\\r=\text{The annual interest rate as a decimal}=0.05\\t=\text{The time the money is invested (in years)}=5$

Substituting the available values into the formula and solving

$A=100(1+0.05)^5=100(1.05)^5 \approx \$ 127.63$

The interest Molly will earn after 5 years is

$A-P=\$127.63-\$100=\$27.63$

Therefore, the amount of interest Molly will earn after 5 years on a deposit of $\$100$ compounded annually over 5 years is $\$27.63$

The vertices of a triangle are P(−3, −4), Q(3, 4), and R(−6, −3). Name the vertices of Rx = 0 (PQR).

Katyanochek1 [597]

The correct answer is <span>A) P'(3, −4), Q'(−3, 4), R'(6, −3)</span>

Rx = 0 indicates a reflection over the y-axis.

The rule for such a transformation is:
(x, y) --> (-x, y)
which means that the x-coordinate changes sign and the y-coordinate stays the same.

Therefore:
P<span>(-3, -4) --> P'(3, -4)
Q(3, 4) --> Q'(-3, 4)
R(-6, -3)</span> --> R'(6, -3)

These points are those in option A).
