The nominal value - without discounting the inflation rate - of income was $ 3000.

If the interest rate was 6%, a rule of three is enough to find the value of the original investment.

3000 - 6%

x - 100%

x = 50,000

The value of the investment was $ 50,000

In this case, the inflation rate also requires a simple calculation.

Inflation corroded $ 1000 dollars of income of $ 3000

Therefore the inflation rate will be 1000/3000 = 33.3%

kirill [66]

Answer:

Let's assume John gets p for each day so his total is 4p. He spends half of that on gas, (4p)/2 = 2p. He has 2p left. Now subtract 5 from 2p for the coffee, and there is 35 left. So 2p - 5 = 35. Right? Now you can solve for p, by simplifying that equation.

Create the f(x) function based on the table. Your answer should be in function notation. X f(x) - 10 -6 -9 -5 1-8 -4 -7 1-3 5 9​
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

f(x) = x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First create an equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b. To do this, find the rate of change or slope (m), and the y-intercept (b).

Using two pairs, (-7, -3) and (-8, -4),

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{-4 -(-3)}{-8 -(-7)} = \frac{-1}{-1} = 1

m = 1

To find b, substitute m = 1, x = -7 and y = -3 into y = mx + b.

Thus:

-3 = (1)(-7) + b

-3 = -7 + b

-3 + 7 = b

4 = b

b = 4.

Replace y with f(x), m with 1 and b with 4 in y = mx + b.

The function would be:

f(x) = x + 4

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x-5+2x = -11

(-4x+2x)-5 = -11

-2x-5 = -11

-2x-5+5 = -11+5

-2x/-2 = -6/-2

x = 3
