MAXImum [283]

There are 15 years was his money invested.

<h3>What is simple interset?</h3>

Simple Interest is an easy method of calculating the interest for a loan/principal amount.

Given

Frank invests $1,000 in simple interest investment account that pays 8% a year.

After a number of years, he withdraws his balance of $2,200.

The number of years was his money inversted is;

\rm I= P\times r \times t

Where p is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest, I is the amount and  t is the time.

Substitute all the values in the formula;

\rm I= P\times r \times t\\\\2200-1000= 1000 \times .08 \times t\\\\1200 = 80t\\\\t = \dfrac{1200}{80}\\\\t=15

Hence, in the 15 years was his money invested.

What is the vertex of the quadratic function f(x) = (x – 8)(x – 2)?
Anni [7]

Answer:

(5, - 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = (x - 8)(x - 2) ← in factored form

Find the zeros by equating f(x) to zero, that is

(x - 8)(x - 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 8 = 0 ⇒ x = 8

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is located at the midpoint of the zeros, hence

x_{vertex} = \frac{8+2}{2} = 5

Substitute x = 5 into f(x) for corresponding y- coordinate

f(5) = (5 - 8)(5 - 2) = (- 3)(3) = - 9

vertex = (5, - 9)
