To solve the question we use the compound interest formula which is given by:
A=p(1+r)^(nt)
where:
A=future value
p=principle
r=rate
n=number of terms
t=time
thus plugging in the values in the formula we shall have:
A=835(1+0.04)^(4t)
simplifying this we get the sequence:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)
Thus the answer to the sequence will be:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)
what are the answer choices?
Answer:
the lower right matrix is the third correct choice
Step-by-step explanation:
Your problem statement shows that you have correctly selected the matrices representing the initial problem setup (middle left) and the problem solution (middle right).
Of the remaining matrices, the upper left is an incorrect setup, and the lower left is an incorrect solution matrix.
__
We notice that in the remaining matrices on the right that the (2,3) term is 0, and the (3,2) and (3,3) terms are both 1.
The easiest way to get a 0 in the 3rd column of row 2 is to add the first row to the second. When you do that, you get ...
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&1&1&29000\\1+2&1-3&1-1&1000(29+1)\\0&0.15&0.15&2100\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&1&1&29000\\3&-2&0&30000\\0&0.15&0.15&2100\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%261%261%2629000%5C%5C1%2B2%261-3%261-1%261000%2829%2B1%29%5C%5C0%260.15%260.15%262100%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%261%261%2629000%5C%5C3%26-2%260%2630000%5C%5C0%260.15%260.15%262100%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Already, we see that the second row matches that in the lower right matrix.
The easiest way to get 1's in the last row is to divide that row by 0.15. When we do that, the (3,4) entry becomes 2100/0.15 = 14000, matching exactly the lower right matrix.
The correct choices here are the two you have selected, and <em>the lower right matrix</em>.
Y-intercept = -13
x-intercept = 2.6 or 2 3/5
-13 is the y-intercept. In the equation, y=mx+b, b is the y-intercept. Looking at the equation, y=5x-13, we can see that -13 is in the place of b, therefore -13 is the y-intercept.
() is the x-intercept. To find the x-intercept, you need to replace values into the equation. Since the coordinates for the x-intercept consist of y being 0, you must replace y in the equation. with 0.
0=5x-13
Get rid of the -13 by adding it onto both sides. -13 is negative and the opposite of a negative is positive, thus making you add to get rid of -13.
0=5x-13
+13 +13
13=5x
Now you divide 5 from both sides to get rid of 5. The opposite of multiplication is division, so you must divide the 5 from 5x to isolate the x.
13/5=5x/5
2.6 or 2 3/5=x
Therefore the coordinates (2.6,0) represent the x-intercept, or just 2.6.
I hope this helped.
Number of red cars = x
Number of white cars = y
x + y = 75
y + 3 = 2x
x + y = 75
y = 75 - x
(75 - x) + 3 = 2x
78 = 3x
26 = x
y + 3 = 2(26)
y + 3 = 52
y = 49
There are 49 white cars.
