Answer:
x-intercept (4,0)
y-intercept (0,10)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is tricky because we are given the interest rate for the year but the problem is figureing the interest for 6 months or 1/2 year. We will have to double the difference before solving for the yearly interest.
572.60 - 560.00 = 12.60 interest added for 6 months x 2 = 25.20 for 12 months
(This problem assumes the interest will stay the same the next 6 months)
We need to find what percent 25.20 is to our original balance.
25.20/560 = x / 100
2520 = 560x
x = 4.5 percent interest
Check .045 x 560.00 = 25.20 interest in one year (or 12.60 in 6 months)
Answer:
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
RS= 4y+2, ST = 3y+8, and RT = 38
We need to find the value of y.
As,
RT = RS+ST
Put all the values,
38 = 4y+2+3y+8
38-2-8 = 4y+3y
28 = 7y
y = 4
So, the value of y is equal to 4.
