Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When the problem is asking which lines have a slope of -2, this is referring to the steepness or rate of change. To determine which lines have a slope of -2, the line must have a rise of -2 and a run of 1. This means that the line will go down 2 units every 1 unit to the right.
Also, if a line is parallel (lines which never cross), it will have the same slope.
You can also eliminate lines c, and d because they increase while lines a, and b decrease. A and B have the same slope because they are parallel and decrease which means that this must be the answer.
I hope this is what you're looking for. Sorry for my writing, I did it with the mouse lol.
Total = Principal * (1 + rate) ^ year
Total = 22,000 * (1.054)^1 = 23,188.00
Total = 14,000 * (1.054)^1 = 14,756.00
23,188.00 - 22,000 = 1,188.00 interest
14,756.00 - 14,000 = 756.00 interest
So the 22,000 earns (1,188.00 -756.00) = 432.00 more dollars in interest than the 14,000 dollars earns in interest.
2450 is the correct answer because if you multiply 3500 x .70 then you get 2450. Hope this helped
