Answer: $12000 was invested at 7% while $8000 was invested at 9%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, let the amount that was invested at 7% be n.
Therefore,
0.07n + 0.09(20000 - n) = 1560
0.07n + 1800 - 0.09n = 1560
-0.02n = 1560 - 1800
-0.02n = -240
n = 240/0.02
n = 120
Therefore, $12000 was invested at 7% while $8000 was invested at 9%.
I believe the fastest way to solve this problem is to take any two of the given points and to find the slope and y-intercept of the line connecting those two points.
Let's choose the 2 given points (-3,16) and (-1,12).
Going from the first point to the second, the increase in x is 2 and the increase in y is actually a decrease: -4. Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = -4/2, or m = -2.
Now use the slope-intercept formula to find the y-intercept, b.
One point on the line is (-3,16), and the slope is m = -2.
Thus, the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b becomes 16 = -2(-3) + b.
Here, b comes out to 10.
So now we have the slope and the y-intercept. Write the equation:
y = mx + b becomes y=-2x+10. Which of the four given answer choices is the correct one?
Answer: It would be x^2 I think

She used the diameter instead of the radius :) instead of cubing 8 she should’ve cubed 4
