Hey there!

y = -1/4x + 10

Looking for the amount of hours of sleep for an 8 year old, so x is 8.

Solve for y:

y = -1/4(8) + 10

y = -2 + 10

y = 8

The predicted number of average hours of sleep for an 8 year old is 3. 8 hours.

Hope this helps!

To convert a fraction to a decimal , the solution is to divide the numerator by the denominator. Since its a mixed fraction, you already know what  the 5/8 of the problem is (0.625). All you do it add the 4 to the decimal and it'll be 4.0625

A person places $686 in an investment account earning an annual rate of 3.8%, compounded continuously. Using the formula V = Pe^
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

V = $1213.03

Step-by-step explanation:

We can determine the amount of money after 15 years with the given formula:

V = Pe^{rt}   (1)

Where:

V: is the value of the account in t years =?

P: is the principal initially invested = $686                

r: is the rate of interest = 3.8% = 3.8/100 = 0.038

t: is the time = 15 years

By substituting the above values into equation (1) we have:

V = Pe^{rt} = 686*e^{(0.038*15)} = 1213.03  

               

Therefore, the amount of money is $1213.03.

I hope it helps you!
