<h3>Answer: 0.0000084</h3>

There are 5 zeros between the decimal point and the '8'

============================================================

Explanation:

Move the decimal point 6 spots to the left to go from 8.4 to 0.0000084

There are 5 zeros between the decimal point and the '8'. Each zero digit mentioned represents one move to the left. That sixth move is due to the '8' itself.

harry invests £6000 in a savings account. the account pays 3.4% compound interest per year. work out the value of his investment

Nataly_w [17]

Invested amount (P0 = £6000.

Rate of interest (r) = 3.4% = 0.034.

We know compound interest formula

A = P(1+r)^t

We need work out the value of his investment per year.

So, we need to plug t=1 and plugging values of P and r in the formula above, we get

A = 6000(1+0.034)^1

A = 6000(1.034)

A = 6204.

<h3>Therefore, the value of his investment per year is £ 6204.</h3>

Now, we need to work out the value of his investment after 3 years.

So, we need to plug t=3.

A = 6000(1+0.034)^3

A = 6000(1.034)^3

1.034^3=1.105507304

A = 6000 × 1.105507304

A = 6633.04

<h3>Therefore, the value of his investment after 3 year is £ 6633.04.</h3>

Mary is spending money at the average rate of $5 per day. After 14 days she has $68 left. The amount left depends on the number

Radda [10]

Answer:

A. Y-68=-5(x-14)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary is spending money at the average rate of $5 per day. After 14 days she has $68 left. The amount left depends on the number of days that have passed. write an equation for the situation

We find the equation using the point slope equation of a line. This is given as:

y - y1 = m(x-x1)

The slope intercept form will be

y = -5x + b

since the amount decreases by $5 per day...

Our slope is -5 so m=-5

We have a point (x1,y1) = (14, 68)

Hence, we have:

y-68 = -5(x-14)

Option A is correct
