Answer:
y= 48 + 0.1x
x= miles driven
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>We need to calculate the fixed and variable cost (per mile) of renting a car. To do that, we will use the high-low method:</u>
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (65 - 58) / (170 - 100)
Variable cost per unit= $0.1 per mile
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 65 - (0.1*170)
Fixed costs= $48
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 58 - (0.1*100)
Fixed costs= $48
y= 48 + 0.1x
x= miles driven
They are vertical angles, thus they are equal to each other:
5x + 12 = 6x - 10
22 = x
x = 22
Answer:
<u>The balance in the account after 10 years is US$ 2,442.81</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the data given to us for answering the question:
Investment amount = US$ 2,000
Duration of the investment = 10 years
Annual interest rate = 2% compounded continuously
2. Let's find the future value of this investment after 10 years, using the following formula:
FV = PV * eˣ ⁿ
PV = Investment = US$ 2,000
number of periods (n) = 10 (10 years compounded continuously)
rate (x) = 2% = 0.02
e = 2.71828 (Euler's number)
Replacing with the real values, we have:
FV = 2,000 * (2.71828)^0.02*10
FV = 2,000 * 2.71828^0.2
FV = 2,000 * 1.2214027
<u>FV = US$ 2,442.81</u>
the answer is x is equal to -4
x=-4
