So what you do is multiple 14000x.06 which is 860 dollars per month now since there is 12 months in a year and ten years multiple 10x12 which is 120 so then multiply 120x860 because its 6 percent of 14000 is 860 so then that’s how much is put in each month after ten years which is 120 months you multiply them together to get 100,800

Answer:$25466 will be in the account after 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial amount that Maria’s parents invested into the account is $14000 This means that the principal so

P = 14000

It was compounded monthly. This means that it was compounded 12 times in a year. So

n = 12

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 6%. So

r = 2/100 = 0.06

It was compounded for 10 years. So

t = 10

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. Therefore

A = 14000 (1+0.06/12)^12×10

A = 14000 (1.005)^120

A = 14000(1.819) = $25466

Answer: 3.50x + 4.00y ≤ 45

0 < y < 11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

$3.50x + 4.00y \leq 45\\\\\\\text{Subtract 3.50x from both sides:}\\4.00y\leq -3.50x+45\\\\\\\text{Divide everything by 4.00 (to isolate y):}\\\dfrac{4.00y}{4.00}\leq \dfrac{-3.50x}{4.00}+\dfrac{45}{4.00}\\\\\\y\leq-0.875x+11.25\\\\\\\text{Both x and y must be greater than zero, so:}\\0$
